Customer Ratings & Reviews

I traded in my iPad mini 5th gen for this 6th gen. The primary reason was that I had run out of memory on any 64Gb mini tab. So, I elected for the 256GB wifi and cellular unlocked tab. It *might* been one of the best tech purchases I've ever made (before I purchase the Asus ROG Ally that is)! It's portable, powerful, useful and so convenient to use. Quite frankly I use it just as much as I use my phone if not more! The main differences between the 5th and 6th gen mini tablets is exterior colors, and the impressive chip upgrade between the 5th gen and 6th gen. The functionality and usability is awesome for up keeping email, reading, playing games, photos, social media or just entertainment on any level. I do have a small online business and I can run literally everything for my business from this mini powerful tablet with ease! The wifi and cellular combo keeps this tablet fully connected 24/7 as long as you're within range of cellular or wifi connection of course! The chip is impressive! It's fast! It offers fluid usage whether I'm streaming, gaming, reading, googling, or scrolling. The graphics are amazing and crystal clear. It loads webpages, apps and games impressively quickly. I play a few mobile games and they work beautifully on this table, SWGOH, Pokemon, Destiny companion, magic and COD. All of which play like butter! It’s even compatible with the Razor backbone! It does function okay for some xbox cloud games but not all. The battery life is outstanding! I'm 7 months in on this tablet and it's just as strong as the day I got it. Typically, I use my tablet for roughly 5 hours a day at minimum and on average I have to recharge every other day. One charge last me anywhere from 2 -3 days depending on my usage. It takes a little over an hour to charge from 5% to 100% with my USB C cable. The portability is outstanding! It fits in literally all my bags (cross body, mini backpack, tote, and even my large winter coat pocket lol) without getting in the way, taking up too much space or even adding much weight. It's light weight and easy hold even one handed. there's still a large variety of cases available to accommodate all needs. I do love that to accommodates the magnetic portfolio style case when when I'm traveling with it but, the plastic silicone covers are useful and easier to hold when lounging around the house and using my tablet all day. The camera is average. It does the trick and offers excellent high quality pictures. It doesn't replace my phone's camera but it's worth mentioning that it's a quality camera that does the trick when I need to snap a quick candid photo (or even photos for my reviews). The memory is AMAZING! I highly recommend going with a memory option of anything ABOVE 64GB. The 64 Gb is simply too small and fills up quickly with updates and downloads. Lastly, the purple color is one of my favorite features but it allows me to customize the tablet to my style even on an exterior level that most tablets don't. I wish there were this many color options for the Apple pro max phones. All in all, I have come around to prefer this iPad mini 6th gen over my iPad Pro 12.9 in and arguably sometimes my phone! I could not be happier or more impressed with his iPad mini and I literally could not recommend it more! (Last photo shows iPad mini 6th gen next to my iPhone 14 Pro Max)

good battery life，very fast，signal strong，color beautiful

Great battery life, and handles some flight/airplane apps flawlessly. And the size is just right for portability.

I absolutely love that iPad mini. I take it with me everywhere! So easy to write on and take notes all day long! I never noticed that it’s dying, because it lasts so long!

I've always loved it, super functional for all my jobs

I traded in an M2 ipad pro to get this ipad mini. The ipad mini with cellular is the perfect companion to the Macbook Pro. I got an Apple Pencil and one of those fancy paper-texture screen protectors and have taken up handwriting journal entries and notes every morning. It started as an experiment but the ipad really has become a knowledge hub for me in a very short period of time. The battery life is about the same as the ipad pro was. Its WAY lighter in my bag. Pairs well with my macbook pro for internet when I'm on the road. People complain about the screen and fingerprint reader. I get the complaints. The screen looks great but it is lower refresh rate. Finding the fingerprint reader is annoying after being used to face unlock. But its fine.... All in all 5 stars from me.

Much better form factor than an iPad Pro. Can hold in one hand. Finger print reader is the best I have seen on any device. It work every time, even with dry hands unlike other devices I have owned. Battery lasts all day. Screen looks as good better than my iPhone 16. Very responsive and fast. Cellular feature works great on T-Mobile as an add on. Can watch You Tube videos anywhere, no lag. Very happy with this iPad Mini, as it is the perfect size and can take anywhere with the cellular feature.

The latest Apple iPad mini with the A17 Pro chip delivers impressive performance in a compact, travel-friendly size. Perfect for on-the-go users, it offers the power of Apple’s cutting-edge A17 Pro chip, making multitasking, gaming, and creative tasks smooth and lag-free. The stunning Liquid Retina display provides vibrant colors and sharp detail, ideal for both work and entertainment. With compatibility for the Apple Pencil, it’s a fantastic tool for note-taking, drawing, or editing photos on the fly. Battery life is robust, and the USB-C port ensures quick charging and connectivity with a range of accessories. If you're looking for a portable yet powerful device, the new iPad mini combines power, versatility, and portability, making it an excellent choice for productivity and entertainment on the move.

It fits my 'cheap Amazon case', and works great with the new Apple Pencil (Yep, won't even charge the older model), but it's faster and clearer than the previous model, and the battery lasts a lot longer too. I've never had 'jelly scrolling' so can't comment on that but apparently if it's doing that while reading an eBook, you are doing something wrong. The color isn't a deep blue, which was rather interesting. In some light it almost looks grayish. I upgraded because the battery in my Mini 6 was bad, so from a 6, might not be a huge upgrade, but for earlier mini models, this will be very welcome... This is still The One iPad To Travel With!

More than worthy upgrade for my old iPad mini, works great, size is quite a bit smaller and much faster than my old one.

I am absolutely thrilled with my new iPad Mini! The size is just right, making it incredibly portable, and it performs like a dream. The best part? It fits perfectly in my bag, so I can take it anywhere with me!

The iPad mini has honestly become one of my favorite Apple products. I originally wanted something smaller and more portable than a full-size iPad, and it ended up being exactly what I was looking for. It’s lightweight enough to take just about anywhere, but the screen is still plenty big for watching videos, reading, browsing, taking notes, or just relaxing on the couch. Everything feels incredibly smooth and responsive, the display looks great, and the battery easily gets me through what I need it for. I also really appreciate that it doesn’t feel like a compromise just because it’s smaller—it still feels like a premium, capable iPad. The biggest compliment I can give it is that I actually use it. Instead of having a tablet that sits on a desk most of the time, the iPad mini is something I constantly find myself grabbing throughout the day. If you want something compact, powerful, and genuinely convenient, I’d absolutely recommend it. Easily 5 stars from me!

Love this mini iPad, it is super fast and has great graphics and very light weight.

Perfect device and size for my needs. Wanted something to replace notepads at work, but didn't want a large device to carry around. The mini with Apple Pencil Pro is perfect. Downloaded GoodNotes, and the combination has been the best thing for my needs.

Solid for people doing flight school. Was able to download a bunch of regulations and charts with zero issues.

Itis so much faster than the A15 model. The battery life is extremely longer too.

Love it. Works great. Love that it is compact and easy to carry.

This new iPad Mini7 was long and coming, and although it does not have a huge step up over the iPad Mini6, it’s at least 30% faster, and runs AI components, at least double the speed — where they are even supported on the previous iPad mini. I haven’t tried the new Apple pencil, but I understand it is much better for general drawings than the previous version of the pencil. my four year old iPad battery was dying anyway, and the cost of replacing it versus the cost of trading it in on a new iPad mini seven sealed the deal.

I highly recommend this ipad. It works so well and the size of it is perfect.

I've been using the new iPad for a while now, coming from an iPad Mini 4, and honestly, I don't see much of a difference. One thing that's really bothering me is the lack of a headphone jack. There have been times when my wireless headphones are dead or when I forget them at home, and all I have left are wired headphones. It’s frustrating not to have that option anymore. Another issue is the power button—it feels flimsy, and I can already tell it’s not going to last long. Overall, it's a decent device, but these two features could use some improvement.
