    As a previous version owner of the iPad mini I am very disappointed in the brightness and acuity of this latest version. So dark and blurry even! Wish I could just buy the quality found in my old device…it is ancient and yet nicer.

    I am enjoying this new iPad. Very similar to my old one. The power cord I had been using previously does not work with this new Ipad but one came with it. I was surprised at that but I should have researched better. Not a big deal but I will be getting another cord that is longer. A couple staff members were very helpful to me prior to purchase.

    I really enjoy my new iPad mini. I have a larger version Pro Max, but it was awful cumbersome to take around. I like the iPad mini for convenience, but my iPad 11 inch Pro was the perfect size.

    This ipad mini works great for basic functions such as reading, checking emails web browsing and note taking. It does not replace a laptop but a great mobile device. The shipping was slightly delayed but a good balance of price and performance.
