    The online purchase and trade in process was simple and straightforward. Once in the store for pickup, I was impressed with the courteous and professional demeanor of the sales staff. Last but not least, the product (256 GB iPad mini is fantastic)

    I really did not need a mini but since Best Buy offered me a decent trade in value for my mini 6 and it was on sale, I went ahead and purchased it for the storage and future proofing the device. As far as I can tell there really was no discernible difference between the 6 and the a17 pro except for Apple intelligence.

    This version of the iPad has a great size for travel and portability, I use a 13 iPad Pro for more strenuous tasks and video editing where the extra screen space is helpful. But for minor photo editing when traveling this size is great to carry.

    The iPad mini is the only iPad I ever consider because it strikes the perfect balance between size and weight. It’s large enough to replace my laptop but small enough to carry around. I’m thrilled that Apple doesn’t forget about its loyal iPad Mini fan base.

    I didn't want a big iPad, but I wanted a bigger screen than my phone and something that I could easily pull out of the bag's front pocket, and the Mini does that. The mini can do everything my phone can (this model has cellular) and everything the bigger iPads can do. Its size is what makes it a winner for me. My airline's apps and Maps also helped me navigate the airport. While running through the airport or sitting in the lounge waiting for my flight, I listened to an audiobook and kept up with messages with family. I watched the new Alien movie on the plane and did some light reading. When I am home, it's more of an ebook reader or a recipe book. Its small size is perfect for reading and tends to be something I toss around like a paperback book. It's not odd to lose it in the couch cushions.

    Highly portable, versatile. Had to try a few different methods and Apple support chat before successfully setting it up and copying data from my old iPad that had a lightening cable. Once it was set up it’s working beautifully
