    I tried the Gen 6 iPad Mini before this newer model went on sale and will say two things. One, I haven't found much difference between this Gen 7 and the Gen 6 models in terms of performance - although I'm sure the 8GB of RAM will help it last longer. Two, it's a great format to take as an EDC, but in terms of drawing and designing work it is too small to work for long periods of time. Great for on the go light editing and sketching, and reading.

    It’s the perfect size tablet to go traveling with wherever you go. Iit’s just as powerful as my phone on Wi-Fi. It’s amazing what you can do with this. I have the large pro tablet also, last year‘s mode,l and it functions just the same, very impressive. I’m pleased with my purchase.

    I’m writing this review on my new iPad. However, this is my second iPad. The first I was unable to connect to Wi-Fi. I called AppleCare and after troubleshooting, they could not solve the issue so they sent me a new iPad. I had the same difficulty with the second iPad. This time I called the geek squad first they were a no help. They told me to call Apple. After talking with someone at Apple, and she could not solve the issue she gave me someone with more knowledge and experience. The issue was my VPN was keeping me from getting onto Wi-Fi. This could have been solved prior to getting the second iPad. Best Buy did not know about this nor did the initial people I spoke to at Apple. Hence four stars instead of five.

    I’m a pilot and have been using a larger iPad. I couldn’t mount it due to size, so it often hindered my flights. After getting the iPad mini, I can mount it on the side window. It made a huge difference in my flights. The mini is sleek, fast, durable and accommodates all the apps and files I need. Wish I had made the change years ago!

    I needed to replace my older ipad because it wasn’t abkr to update - one of the ongoing issues eotj apple and other devices. They have access tp update fora few years and then suddenly they disable updates except minimal old versions. I liked my older ipad and enjoy my new mini. Like the size of the mini - easier to hold but current updates!
