Apple iPad Mini 2 with Retina display
The iPad Mini 2 with Retina Display is the iPad Mini we always wanted. We really liked last year's original model, but it always felt like the underpowered, under-specced smaller sibling to the full iPad. Now all that separates the two is size, and that makes for quite the pint-sized proposition.- Stunning screen
- Fast performance
- Premium design
- Fantastic app selection

Apple iPad mini with Retina display review
In our review of Apple's original iPad mini last year, we remarked that its exceptional iOS app catalogue, outstanding build quality and super light weight were only let down by a mediocre screen.- Excellent battery life
- Retina screen a big upgrade
- Fast
- snappy performance
- More expensive than predecessor
- Screen can't match iPad Air

iPad mini with Retina display review
The iPad mini Retina is here and it clears up one of the biggest complaints about the original iPad mini: the screen. With the original it wasn't as good as the iPad or the iPhone, but with the Retina display now on board the iPad mini 2 looks to be an incredible tablet device.- Portable
- powerful
- great screen
- as a tablet should be
- No Touch ID
- not 802.11ac
- no microSD
Dear-ly beloved: Apple's costly iPad Mini with Retina Display
Review Last year's iPad Mini really was playing second fiddle to the regular iPad. Not merely smaller than its sibling, the Mini had a much lower resolution display. It had a less powerful processor too. It felt like a product Apple was obliged to make rather than one it actually wanted to.

Small doesn't have to mean second-rate, we've seen the future of tablets and it looks like the Retina iPad Mini- Gorgeous build
- stunning Retina screen
- All day battery life
- Much faster than the original Mini
- Very expensive compared to 7/8in tablets
- No expandable storage
- Marginally inferior colours compared to Air's screen
Apple iPad mini 2 review (Retina display model, late-2013)
Apple has taken its landmark tablet and made it significantly better. There's no doubt this is the best small tablet on the market, and should budget not be a primary factor in a buying decision then it's the device to go for whether it's for screen quality, range of apps, battery life, physical...

iPad Mini 2 review
At £319 for the 16GB, cellular-free, model, the iPad Mini Retina isn't cheap, especially compared to its rivals. Things get almost MacBook-like at the top-end, with the 128GB/4G model setting you back £659.- Stunning Retina display
- Speed performance
- Size and weight for daily use
- Price
- No Touch ID
