It's a great portable version of an iPad Air that is great for reading and watching videos on the go, and powerful enough for some light design and editing tasks (screen is too small to work on a larger project). The main downside would be the price - $100 too much for what you get.

I love the form factor of the new iPad mini. With the A17 Pro chip, it is incredibly fast and handles gaming and multitasking with ease. It’s the perfect size for reading and travel. Shipping from Best Buy was super fast, and the item arrived brand new and sealed. Highly recommended!

The iPad mini 7 is an outstanding device that perfectly balances performance and portability. Its compact size makes it incredibly easy to carry anywhere, yet it delivers powerful performance that rivals larger tablets.

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.

It is the perfect size for mobility. I had a nexus 7 years ago and loved it. iOS is so much better for me and the size allows me to carry it in my jacket pocket. I like the usb c connection and the speed.

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 really don’t like trying to do things on a small cell phone. I also do not want to carry my large iPad around with me. This size is perfect. I particularly like that. It holds a charge well.

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 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!

,,,small & light enough to carry in a bag for travel. Screen is clear. I am hoping to figure out how to download a couple of movies to watch while traveling. (The phone is just too small for movie watching.)
I was expecting to have my apps from the old iPad transferred when I set up the new mini. Some did not.
It is an adjustment for me to set an alarm on my phone reminding me to take it off the charger. With this newer type of battery, it is recommended to take it off the charger when charged for longer battery life.
I have not taken photo's yet. All in all, it should be a good replacement for my old iPad of many years.
I am bitter to have to replace the old iPad because it started dragging after updates a while back... likely Apple nudging consumers to buy, buy, buy...

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!

Got this to replace my iPad Mini 5th gen. I didn’t have enough memory available to update to IOS 26. It still works fine using IOS 18.3.2, but when this iPad Mini A17 Pro went on sale for Cyber Monday, I couldn’t resist. Setup was easy and it works well. I’ve always had a good experience with all the iPads and Minis I’ve purchased over the years. And with 256GB memory available, this should last me for many years.

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.

A little smaller than my old iPad mini, it is much smarter and faster. The size makes it more portable which is good.for me. It is taking some adjusting bcz the new features such as multiple screens takes some learning. But I love the auto correction which is better than past Apple products.

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!
