My wife has had her iPad (generation 1) since they first came out. It was getting a bit long in the tooth and didn't run some applications very well. Our son had gotten the iPad mini for his birthday and she liked the size.

Extreemly portable; retina display; latest processor

Some things can look tiny

The iPad mini's a beautiful size, and a beautiful package the puts the production rivals of all its seven inch rivals to shame: Asus will really have to up its game for its Nexus 7 follow up. Is it expensive?

This probably sounds obvious, but the iPad mini really is mini; So much so that you can hold it with one hand; This is true of its seven inch rivals as well as the iPad mini, but it's still worth bearing in mind: a 7.9-inch iPad is much smaller compared to a 9.7-inch iPad than it sounds in paper.

We could grumble at the lack of Retina Display: the iPad mini's display packs in the same 1024x768 pixels as the original 2010 iPad; and purists will spot the extra grain and fuzz around the edge of text.

Apple found a lot of success with the original iPad mini. It delivered an Apple tablet experience in a smaller size and at a slightly more affordable price than the full fat iPad and people went mad for it. The only real problem it had was its screen which, frankly, wasn't all that.

Stunning design; Powerful; Good battery life

Expensive

The 7.9in tablet arrives on the market as Apple follows competitors by making a pocket-sized device. Does the iPad mini retain the magic of the original?

Actually it is rubbish, its in the bin as it overheated just out of warranty. Avoid this rubbish. Less than 1 star. I have only given it 5 stars as this is what you will read, just type in apple ipad mini overheating into google and you will see what I mean.

I am a little bit of a mess when it comes to electronic products and have a habit of breaking them. This time I have been a lot more careful because this is one of the best products that I have had.

Easy to use; large amount of free apps including games

Memory is not enough; the photo quality is lower than that of other apple products

The ipad mini is almost the perfect tablet for me, i love the size and the lightness of the device. Along with the os which i really do prefer on tablets mainly due to there being so many apps built around the ipad.

The operating system

Screen quality

The iPad mini with Retina display has arrived. As someone who dumped the full-sized iPad for the iPad mini a year ago , I've been excited to get my hands on this new model. Can its small size beat out the all-new, all-lightweight iPad Air for a place in my heart and my backpack?

A lovely ipad - good size and really light. We bought it for farming applications, particularly for our precision seeder. The resolution is fantastic and we can store a huge amount of information on each paddock as we continue planting.
