    I use this everyday...to take and store photos and videos, listen to music, read books and magazines, check e-mail, play games, use facetime to keep in touch with my family, and use the internet for news and basic searches. I particularly wanted the mini because of its portability. And I had to have the cellular data feature because I travel to where wifi connection is not always available.

    It's like having your laptop or desktop with you all the time. Also, the apps make lie so much easier. Wish you could muti-task. Having to leave one item to go to another is a pain. Also, moving from the Kindle to this is great in some ways, but as an Amazon Prime member it's limiting in others. I find myself using iBooks now almost exclusively. Also flash player doesn't work.

    The Apple iPad Mini is a great companion for anyone. It is small enough to fit inside someone's bag and isn't too bulky or big to fit inside somewhere small for travel like previous iPads. The clarity of it easily beats that of any iPad before it. We use this for our company and it has worked flawlessly.

    The iPad Mini has all the features of the full size iPad and takes up less space. Great for travel. The screen size is more than adequate for all uses. Carrying the Mini allows me to leave my laptop behind for meetings and receiving information on the go!

    I really enjoy the iPad mini. I like the size. It is really portable and lightweight, which fits easily in my backpack or purse. I am glad that I chose the mini over the regular sized iPad and other tablet devices. I am definitely a fan of Apple's iPad. The app store makes it so easy to download apps and is easy to use.

    I went from a full size ipad to the mini-ipad due to a portability issue. This size is much easier to carry and hide when I am traveling. I have been able to do away with my GPS and minimize the use of my iphone because of the mini-ipad. The size resembles more of a paperback and is more convenient to carry this around instead of book or the larger ipad.

    This was a pricey, but great purchase for my teen. He loves the size - not as big as our iPad2, but larger than the iPhone! He likes the larger variety in apps and the clarity. However, as with all Mac products, you pay a "pretty penny!"

    We gave this to our grown daughter at her college graduation! She adores it and even though she has an iPhone, the mini allows her to study for her registry test no matter where she is. FaceTime has been very useful since she lives so far away. Great photos, tons of amazing apps, etc.and the size is perfect for her to carry in her purse. Apple builds the best.
