    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.

    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.

    Love this! My old one was getting too slow and didn't have enough memory to upgrade each time it needed to. I am very pleased with both the unit and the purchasing ease.

    I love my new mini Ipad. I just need to learn how to use it and get used to it. A little different from my old one. I suggest taking a class at the Apple Store.

    Exactly what I needed for my business trips. I wanted a smaller version of the iPad Pro that I could use to take notes, assessments, teams meetings and watch movies during leisure time on the plane. (90% business traveler)

    I hope Apple includes a promotion display and a 120Hz refresh rate in their next mini. This is the best iPad hands down, incredibly portable, and I use it more frequently than any previous pro’s I’ve owned.

    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.
