Best in Class
Simply the best in the price category. Retina Display, iOS performance, Great Battery life, Huge storage and secured. What else do we need ?
My very first Apple product.
This is my first tablet and first Apple product. This product is simple to navigate. The prev complaints of a really small number/ letter pad --I think is silly. I find no issue with it. The picture quality is gorgeous! My only concern is the volume. I really wish the sound for this item was louder.
Review: Apple's Retina iPad mini is the small tablet we wanted a year ago
You needed to know two things about the first iPad mini. The first thing is that it was, well, mini -it was a 7.9-inch tablet from a company whose CEO once said that users would have to sandpaper their fingers down to comfortably use anything smaller than a full-size iPad.- Retina display resolves all of our gripes with the old mini's screen
- A7 SoC blows the old mini's A5 out of the water and nearly runs as quickly as the version in the iPad Air
- Great battery life
- and the battery charges more quickly if you use the included 10W adapter
- Nice Wi-Fi upgrade
- although...
- iOS 7 is still a little rough around the edges on this and every iPad
- Air gap between glass and LCD keeps screen from being as good as it could be
- Features like Touch ID will have to wait until next year at the earliest
- Scattered reports indicate that some screens may suffer from image retention...
Apple iPad mini with Retina Display: Reviewed
When I concluded our iPad Air review I assumed the iPad mini with Retina Display was a true no-compromise, smaller alternative to the iPad Air. In many senses that's true. Wireless connectivity is identical between the models, battery life is pretty much the same as well.
Apple iPad Mini with Retina Display vs iPad Air
The Air and Mini are almost exact mirrors of each other when it comes to the overall hardware. The resolution is 2,048 x 1,536 on both models, the Air has 264 ppi while the Mini has 326 ppi. They have the same 1.3 GHZ Dual Core processor and 1 GB of RAM.
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.
Apple iPad mini 2 review: Moving up the ranks
The iPad mini with Retina screen is everything the little tablet deserved to be - a more compact equal of the bigger iPad with no compromises made. And unfortunately, it's just one thing short of what we all thought a compact tablet should be - cheap.- 7.9" LED-backlit IPS LCD touchscreen
- 1536 x 2048 pixels
- ~ 324 ppi
- oleophobic coating
- Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n connectivity with MIMO dual antennas
- Optional 2G/3G GSM
- CDMA
- LTE connectivity (data only
- separate models
- Optional GPS with A-GPS support (for the Wi-Fi+Cellular model only
- Dual-core A7...
- Expensive for a compact tablet
- Non expandable memory
- extra storage is largely overpriced
- Tied into iTunes for uploading most of the content
- No standard USB port
- No GPS receiver in the Wi-Fi-only version
Listen, I don't have the greatest history when it comes to tablet relationships. We have… a checkered past . I was pitched on this fabled third device long ago, but I can't help but feel that we've all been hoodwinked.
Apple iPad Mini 2 (Retina Display) Review
The iPad Mini with Retina display is essentially the same iPad Mini we used to know and love. It's just faster and better. The improvements are exactly where we wanted them. Our only complaint is that Apple priced it way higher than we expected (almost 20-25% from the previous version) putting it in...- * Great display quality
- * Great performance
- * Long battery life
- * Impressive design and profile
- * Way more expensive than previous iPad Mini
- * No expandable storage option
- * New color variants aren't inspiring
Introduction Apple had introduced the original iPad Mini without the RETINA display and that pretty much confirmed that the second generation of Apple iPad Mini would come with the RETINA display.
- Excellent Build Quality and Premium Finish
- Lot of tablet specific applications
- Top notch performance
- Excellent battery life
- On the expensive side
- Lack of expandable storage
- Camera lacks flash and isn't great for lowlight performance
- iOS 7 feels boring and same throughout
