Apple iPad mini 3
Blink and you might have missed it. The iPad mini 3 made an especially quiet debut at Apple's latest event, a mere footnote compared with the iPad Air 2 . With the dust now settled, it's easy to see why-aside from a gold paintjob, Touch ID sensor, and Apple SIM, the $399 16GB mini 3 receives no...- Beautifully built
- Fast
- Sharp screen
- Excellent app options
- Pricey
- Few reasons to buy over the less-expensive, still-available iPad mini 2
Apple iPad Mini 3 review
The Mini 3 is futureproof thanks to fingerprint scanning but makes the iPad Mini 2 too much of a bargain to ignore- The best small tablet experience
- Touch ID for unlock and iTunes
- Gorgeous build
- stunning Retina screen
- All-day battery life
- The Mini 2 is now much better value
- No spec bumps like the iPad Air 2
- Non expandable
- no 32GB
- Slightly inferior colours next to Air 2
Apple iPad mini 3
It makes little sense to run down everything in Apple's iPad mini 3 ($399-$729) that's the same as what you'll find in last year's iPad mini with Retina display - a model that thankfully was renamed
We review the Apple iPad Mini 3, the gold-tinted tiny tab rocking TouchID. Apple's iPad Mini 3 reveal felt a little half-arsed at best, taking up around 27 seconds of the launch event where we also saw the Air 2 drop.
- Still great
- now with more storage options and Touch ID
Nov 25 2013 - The iPad Mini with Retina display is such a huge improvement over the original that it is hard to use the new one and even consider looking at the older one. In essence, Apple has taken all the things they did with the iPad Air and then offered them in the smaller tablet and with a...
Apple iPad mini 3 review
The iPad mini 3 is a great tablet in almost every way, and if that verdict sounds familiar, it’s because that was our conclusion about the iPad mini 2. Apart from the Touch ID fingerprint reader and the option of a gold-coloured back, there’s no difference between the two models.
iPad Mini 3 performs mostly as expected
Following a couple of weeks of use, the iPad Mini 3 performs mostly as expected. (See Notes)1. For my use, I prefer the smaller size. My wife has the iPad Air that I used for a while to compare. 2. I like how the Unit communicates with my iPhone 5.
The iPad Mini 3 can't compete against another tablet ranged by Apple
Hiding in the shadows of Apple's iPad Air 2 announcement was the smaller iPad Mini 3, neglected, with the only improvement made to the year-old tablet being Touch ID.- Powerful and yet small tablet
- High resolution 'retina display
- Touch ID
- Hardware is a year old
- Expensive
iPad mini 3 review
Apple's iPad mini has always been a firm favourite tablet in the Wired.co.uk office. With the iPad mini 3 Apple has kept almost everything from the previous Retina display iPad mini 2 , but added a TouchID fingerprint sensor and now offers a gold finish.- Amazing display
- excellent battery life
- fast processor
- great 3D graphics
- easy to use
- app store still number one for quality and variety
- The addition of TouchID and gold colour option just doesn't seem to justify such a premium over the iPad mini 2
- cameras and processor not improved in line with other iPads
