Q: QuestionIs this the mini 4 or the mini 5?

Asked 6 years ago by Allie.

• A:Answer This is the mini 5, sometimes referred to as the iPad Mini (2019). If you decide to purchase, note that most iPad mini 4 cases won't work properly with this model, as the cutouts don't line up with the rear camera or the volume buttons. I just got this model recently and am pleased with it so far.

Q: Questionif i purchase an iPad mini that is Open Box and priced as Open Box, is there a Warranty on it snd what is the Warranty? Are there usually problems with the Open Box items?

Asked 4 years ago by Sue.

• A:Answer No if you can save some money buying the mini five you were not giving up anything except you were saving A little bit of$$ and the warranty is the same and both Best Buy and Apple stand by their products.. and the direct answer to your question is it comes with a one-year factory warranty which would apply if you buy it open box or sealed in a box.

  I would recommend:
