Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve changed form factors on iPads a few times now. This is my second iPad mini (I had the 2nd generation). I like the size but I never liked the storage. This 256 gb iPad is just what I needed. The physical and storage sizes fit with my life really well. My iPad fits in the smallest of my EDC slings and is really the most portable of all the iPads. The lighter weight is a plus, too. The ability that Apple builds into its devices to automatically start the hotspot on my phone is great, but for me it wasn’t enough and I did exchange this for the WiFi+Cellular unlocked version. I like not having to take my phone with me but still be as connected as I want to be, and what is the point of such a portable device without having to find free WiFi everywhere you go?

I recently purchased the new iPad Mini 7 from Best Buy, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. The product itself is amazing—lightweight, powerful, and the display quality is stunning. It’s perfect for reading, browsing, and taking on trips. Best Buy’s service was excellent as well. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and helped me set up everything quickly. The checkout process was smooth, and the pickup was fast and well organized. Overall, both the iPad Mini 7 and Best Buy’s service exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended!

Ideal for everyday casual use. Clearly read news articles, instagram, etc. Battery lasts all day and quickly recharges. Processor fast for all tasks thrown at it. You just have to know what your needs are and not expect large display. Easy game player. Very light to hold and carry.

Very happy with the iPad mini 7. I had previously had the iPad mini 6 with 64gb of storage (which wasn't enough) so in purchasing this one I definitely wanted more storage so I opted for the 256gb. It is a great content streaming device, which I primarily use it for and the size makes it so easy to take along with me on vacation. The A17pro chip is quite a step up from the previous chipset and is powerful enough to play some heavy duty games, if so desired. I am pleased with this purchase and I got a very generous trade-in from Best Buy on my iPad mini 6 which made it a no brainer. No regrets.

Love it! I was torn between the mini and the iPad Air, but because of the mini's size I opted for the 256GB. I am very happy with it. It's perfect to fit into a slip briefcase or purse or small carry-bag. I don't game on it, so that was not a priority in my decision-making. It has replaced my old Kindle and my old Android 10 inch tablet perfectly! The battery life is exactly what they say it is, and it syncs with my Macbook brilliantly.

So I’ve been using my new iPad mini 7 for a little over a month now and I absolutely love it. I used to have a 512GB 4th Gen iPad Pro that used and for about 5 years but grew tired of it as it was just too big to be carrying around. Don’t get me wrong I loved the size if the iPad Pro’s screen but thr added weight was a bit much. The size of this iPad mini 7 is perfect. Easy to carry around and toss into my slingbag with no issues. And battery life has been fine. Plus its able to get Apple Intelligence.

I’ve got my second iPad mini, and it’s a great upgrade from my old mini 6. This 7th-gen model is a bit faster and comes with some cool Apple features, so it’ll last me a few more years. If you’re looking for a tablet that’s perfect for watching movies and browsing the web, this is the one for you. It’s got a bigger screen than your phone and is super lightweight, so it’s easy to carry around.

Great size, fast, very convenient for reading manga, watching movies. When I build legos with my GF, she uses the physical book while I use the Lego app on the iPad and it’s a similar size so it works out great. Also as a monitor for flying the drone.

This is the perfect size and functionality. Its weirdly lighter than what it looks like. You wont be missing much using this iPad other than size and the ProMotion display.

I have an iPad air and MacBooks but wanted something to use on long flights that would be more compact but still have a nice display. This is it. I watched some downloaded content as well as videos available on the aircraft’s WiFi. Listened to audio through Bluetooth headphones. Perfect. My iPad air has cellular but i opted for this WiFi version because i can use my phone as a hotspot. Best Buy’s delivery was fast and convenient. Im happy!

I recently got the iPad mini 7, and I’m loving it! The A17 Pro chip makes everything super fast, whether I’m streaming, editing photos, or just browsing. The 256GB storage gives me all the space I need, and the Starlight color looks so sleek. It’s compact but powerful—perfect for my on-the-go lifestyle!

iPad mini is the perfect size for travel. I liked my regular iPad but this checked all the boxes and with excellent battery life. On top of that, Best Buy was offering $100 off and better trade in value for my old model than the Apple.

My partner and I were planning ahead to buy this and did research. When going in-person, the Apple and Best Buy associate did a fantastic job with determining the best specifications. For the iPad Mini, it is a great tablet with a great size for those with smaller hands but is just as efficient as the other M3 processors out there. Very easy form factor and good for travel.

I have an iPad Pro also, but I find myself using my mini more because of its portability. The battery life is nice and I can read my Kindle ebooks in color.

So happy after using an old IPad since 2017. Everything is much faster and I don’t have to recharge it every night.

Excellent! Replaced an IPad mini 4, and I had been waiting for this release for a while. Love the 8.3” size, and how much faster it is. Also, the base is 128gb but I got the 256gb. I highly recommend!

This iPad has become my go to for travel lounging around reading a book or watching a movie. Love all the new updates.

This is a great size iPad that can easily be held in one hand. If your looking for a bigger screen than your phone but still what a portable easy to hold in one hand device this is the option. I have an iPad Pro 12' screen and find myself grabbing this more often. if you put a popIt handle on the back it is really easy to have a solid hold on it with one hand.

Just got it today and i love it …even though idk if to call it a downgrade because iwent from a 12.9 ipad pro 5th gen to the mini but only because the size was jst too much and not convenient. Its still going to be in use ihave it to my sisters husband which he is a tall guy wayy bigger and also kinda blind so the big screen most definitely will be lots of help. But loke isaid in my opinion its not a downgrade iwent from 128gb to 256gb and its perfect size ican have it with me literally anywhere. And thats what iwant whether its at work or for my personal use . So im happy with it and igot the apple pencil pro as well as a strong case that will protect and yet its still small i love it!

Best purchase ever. Didn’t know how much I use it until I took a chance and bought it, worth every penny. Use it daily and its perfect size. Runs great since it has the same chip as the iPhone 15 pro
