    The A17 Pro really gives a big performance boost over the iPad mini 5, and the larger screen size makes it much better for reading books, mangas, and magazines. And the subtle purple really looks great.

    I traded in my Ipad air for the mini and it was the best decision!! Battery life is so much better than the air,the size feels much more comfortable and travel friendly and has a better processor.

    I moved from a gen 5 to this gen 7 and am generally liking it. Bigger screen on a smaller body & added flash are my favourite things. It's supposed to be peppier than my 5, and have better resolution, but I don't notice it that much, And happily, the weight remains the same. The touch button is now on the side and is quite narrow, making it very sensitive to recognizing my fingerprint; it takes a few touches sometimes. Also, the interface is now one usb-c (no more 3.5 jack) so although I am able to use my charger from my macbook air, I needed to order new headphones and can't charge and take a call at the same time. The purple is more of a cool rosy grey and very nice. I adore my ipad mini and use it tons. Way better than a smaller phone for reading, games etc, but portable enough to take most places. Because there's still no true phone, his time I decided to skip the cell feature and use my dumbphone as a hotspot when I'm away from wifi. TBH, I use my google phone way more than my phone.

    Nice in size in between my iPhone and MacBook Air

    I will start out by saying that I bought my iPad, as an open box item and am very impressed with the condition. I saved over $25 vs an unopened item and got something that looked brand-new. I bought this item, as my older 11" iPad Pro was running out of space and I had just gotten a new MacBook Air, so I really did not need another bigger iPad. I am very pleased with my purchase, especially the size, as it easily fits in one hand. It is a nice size between my larger MacBook Air and my smaller iPhone. Also 128GB storage is double my previous iPad and will be more than enough space to store all my apps and files. The display and processor are also very nice and almost more than I need. On the down side this item seems a little pricey even for Apple when compared to some of the other iPads currently on the market (did use gift cards and rewards, so I really did not have to pay the full price, plus I got this item on sale). In all I am very happy with this iPad, but not pay full price for it.

    In my pursuit of a compact yet capable tablet, the Apple iPad mini with the A17 Pro chip has proven to be a commendable choice. Its sleek blue finish and lightweight design make it an elegant companion for both professional and personal endeavors. The A17 Pro chip delivers a notable performance boost, handling multitasking and demanding applications with ease. The 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display offers crisp visuals, enhancing the experience of reading, streaming, and creative tasks. The device’s compatibility with the Apple Pencil Pro further expands its utility for note-taking and artistic pursuits.   Connectivity is robust, with Wi-Fi 6E ensuring fast and stable internet access. The inclusion of USB-C simplifies charging and data transfer, aligning with modern standards.  While the iPad mini excels in portability and performance, it’s worth noting that the 60Hz refresh rate may not satisfy users seeking the smoothest possible display experience. Additionally, the price point positions it as a premium device, which may influence purchasing decisions. Overall, the iPad mini (A17 Pro) stands as a testament to Apple’s commitment to quality and innovation, offering a refined tablet experience in a compact form factor.

    iPad Mini for MAX USE

    The iPad mini is extremely handy for day to day use and on travel. I recently was on a trip with a 3 hour flight and a 1.5 hour lay-over and I opted out of using my laptop for using the iPad mini. To my dismay, the iPad mini allowed for me to do some light reading, internet browsing and I even submitted a homework assignment during my layover. Granted, the homework assignment was merely a discussion post. With all that being said, this powerful device has multiple use capabilities for all the things I mentioned and beyond. I'd recommend the iPad mini to anyone that doesn't want a bulky device, but still wants extreme functionality.

    The iPad mini 7 in purple has a subtle shade of purple, which looks really nice. The heat management is decent, and the new processor ensures smooth performance.

    iPad Mini 7 (A17 Pro) - Open-Box Excellent

    I bought the iPad Mini 7th Gen with the A17 chip in the open-box condition of "excellent." I inspected the device upon unboxing it and found no issues, it was practically brand new. It was as if someone opened the box but decided they did not need the device. Great value for an upgrade from the iPad Mini 5th gen. Battery is enough to get me through the day of using Brave, Safari, and Goodnotes paired with my Apple Pencil Pro. The USB-C charging allows me to use the same cord for my MacBook with my iPad, without worrying about having to carry a separate cord if need be.
