The best mini ipad since sliced bread!! It's awesome. WOW is all I can say. Highly recommend.

Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2024

I spent 7 hours researching a good ipad. I wanted something to use in my hand, not to big or small. I am coming from the iPad mini 5th generation and WOW is this a huge step up. So many great things about it. Not one bad thing at all. I have 9 apple products and love them all. I'm well pleased. Apple does it again. I am glad that I got a good price for this. Apple and eBay sells this for $100 more so I bought it from Amazon. I am so glad that I did. It is super fast. Great feel, quality and awesome camera. The picture quality is unreal. It is very portable even with a case on it. The storage is great. I have 30GB free even after the new iOS install. This is a larger screen than the iPad 5th generation. No more home button, yay. I love the round square edges. I love the pencil 2 charging option. The new A15 bionic chip is awesome. So fast. The battery last 10 hours. Everything loads faster and better. My web pages load so much faster. The video content is awesome. I am very impressed. The 8.3" screen is larger than the 7.9" screens and you can tell the difference. I love the edge to edge viewing. The colors are so very real and vibrant. I highly recommend this. Must buy. I buy a new ipad Everytime they come out with the mini.

I love this tiny toy!

Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2022

First let me tell you I was hesitant about buying an iPad Mini. I even considered buying an iPad Pro: I have had two 9.7" iPads (series 4 and series 6) so I thought I would miss a larger screen. Turns out, I didn't. I will give you a few hints on what to expect with this device:

Pros:
* Higher resolution: One of the main factors that led me to buy this tiny beast was the screen resolution (319 ppi), which is higher than any other iPad's resolution. I highlight this feature because I use my iPad primarily to read and watch IT videos.
* Portability (it's really lightweight! You will be astounded when you pick one of these)
* Size (You can hold the whole device with one hand while writing with the other, something unthinkable in larger iPads).
* Battery life (Discharge rate: about 5% / hour when playing videos; Charge rate: about 10% / 14 min)
* TouchID (Very convenient, and it recognizes the fingerprint very quickly)
* Stereo speakers (they sound really good!)
* Apple Pencil support (When paired with an Apple pencil, it's a breeze. I'm using a note-taking application that allows me to use my iPad as a small notebook. It made me wish I had done this while I was still studying).
* Three months of Apple TV+, Apple Arcade and Apple Music (Apple gives you three months of Apple TV+, Apple Arcade and Apple Music by only purchasing the device. So I'm enjoying a series in Apple TV+ "For all mankind" and it really looks great in this screen. I'm planning to watch other productions during these three months).

Cons:
* No silent mode switch (I use teh control center to lower the volume when needed)
* No FaceID (I use the TouchID and it's very convenient and fast)
* No raise to wake (I gently double tap the screen to wake it up).
* No Promotion (There is no workaround to this. The device has a standard 60hz screen, so you will have to decide if you accept it or not)
* Some users report sort of a "jelly effect" in the screen when you fast scroll the screen. I haven't noticed anything similar to this behavior in any direction (up, down in vertical nor portrait mode).

A word of advice about storage:

* If you're thinking about this device, go for the 256 GB one. That was my selection, and I'm glad I did it, because after only one week of usage, I have already used 35 GB of storage. Had I selected the 64 GB version, I would be worried about the storage already.

Conclusion:

The iPad mini lacks some features its bigger brothers have, but despite this fact, this is totally a great device. If you can sacrifice those features in favor of portability (or you find a way to sort them, as I did), you won't regret. Hopefully we will be able to see an "iPad Pro Mini" in the future (I hope Apple folks read this review someday), but for now, I'm very happy with this purchase. I'm declaring myself an iPad mini fan from now on.

A little Swiss Army knife of an iPad!

Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2024

The iPad is my favorite accessibility tool. My 12.9" iPad Pros (one for work, one for home) are my go-to tools all day long. Being visually-impaired, they're a godsend. But, they're also heavy, and a bit clumsy in some cases. As a magnifier, for example.

For years I've been using an old 2017 10.5" iPad Pro as a magnifier and general-use tool on my workbench. However, it was getting slow and cranky, plus the battery was losing charge pretty quickly. I decided to replace it with this iPad mini, since compared to most dedicated accessibility tools, it's rather inexpensive.

It turned out to be a good choice. The camera is sharp, and the form factor makes it easy to get into cramped spaces. Not to mention it's light: at half the weight of my iPad Pro, I almost tossed it in the air the first time I used it.

What came as a surprise is how much I turn to it for other needs. It's nice to use sitting on the couch and having VoiceOver read news stories to me, or to have text conversations with friends, etc. Because it has a decent A15 SoC, it doesn't lag when doing VoiceOver. Plus, the battery life is amazing.

It's a decent tool, and I expect I'll be using it for many years.

I LOVE THIS IPAD

Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2024

My bigger iPad Air recently just broke so I was debating between getting another or getting the iPad mini. I am SO happy that I chose the Mini. I love that it is light enough to carry around wherever I go, but still has a bigger screen than my phone so I can do work/school on it. I have also been reading on it a LOT and think that it is the perfect tablet for reading. It is about the size of a kindle, but the iPad has better quality and downloading capabilities - I actually returned my Kindle after I started reading on this iPad mini.

I would 10/10 recommend for someone who loves to read, but still loves to have all the capabilities of an iPad.
