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!

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.

So glad I bought the iPad mini. It’s the perfect size for reading and easy to take with me on trips.

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!

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!

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.

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.
