iPad mini (A17 Pro)

Was a mini 4 user for 3 years and held out for the 7. Glad I waited!

I have the six for only a year now plus three months so I am waiting…😮

I have no complaints about my iPad mini. I use it to work every day. Sounds like YOU don’t like it.

Expecting to see similar improvements to my iPhone on iPad OS 27 on my iPad mini (A17 Pro). Decided to go ahead and update my Apple Watch and Apple TVs as well just to complete the circle, despite not having nearly as many performance quirks or buggy moments on either device on last year's OSs.

Just got one yesterday after trading in my A17 iPad at Best Buy…I freaking love it

[...] I am using mine as a phone replacement. [...]

Returning my iPad mini A17 Pro. [...]

[...] Got the keyboard swivel case for it. [...] I take it with me everywhere - especially when I drive my car to the charging station. [...] When I go away to Vietnam and Cambodia this summer, it will be hard just taking my laptop and leaving my iPad behind. [...] The Mini makes more sense because it's more up to date, but the A16 I could save a lot of money. Either one: I'll get her a matching keyboard case.

I’ve had a mini since it first released and I’ve never looked back.

Mini is the best, I feel like using a laptop with the bigger screen ipad

I use ipad mini but i dont use a pencil and battery life lasts for ages for me

Good: Fingerprint reader (i dont want hole in the screen), 8" size. Bad: 1 core missed 1 years old cpu, only pencil pro support, still no quick charge (at least 60W). Ugly: No stage manager support, 60 hz jelly screen. [...]

Mini the best, I use mini, air, pro, mini the best for travel. Waiting for mini M series, would be a killer tablet.

[...] I decided to return it for 2 main reasons and one optional reason: - Battery life was bad : Barely making a day using it, mainly for reading and youtube only, no pen attached and background app limited - Screen quality and price ratio : to me it is not worth at full price, old screen tech (refresh rate and panel). For the same price you can have 1 or 2 Lenovo, or in my case a 11 Samsung tab s9 256GB (coming with s-pen) Optional reasons: With screen getting larger and larger, switching between large or foldable phones with beautiful screens to the iPad mini and if you are sensible to those, it will be an annoyance in the end

Ipad mini7 is a nice option for: - notes - YouTube - reading books, manhua etc. - quick check excel etc. (Without editing, to edit them - it's a pain, if you don't have a keyboard at least) - calligraphy - games - the second monitor (YouTube player - as background, while you're focusing on the laptop's monitor) I'm using it 2+ months already 😁 satisfied

[...] I haven’t had any of the battery drain issues. I also keep my Apple Pencil USB-C connected overnight. Neither one drains excessively.

[...] My battery on my Mini 7 is super and why I upgraded to the 7… the 6 was 4-5 years old so compared to the 7, the 7 has way better battery life even with my Pencil connected. Takes 3-4 days to drain mine. [...] My only complaint is the 60 hz display.

I bought an ipad mini 5 for media consumption but i resonate the writing part. The 10.2 in ipad is still too small for me when writing i do intend to write with split screen it is a hassle

I have all 3 sizes. I must say each has a very, very specific use case. Frustration is guaranteed when you attempt to cross those boundaries!
