The iPad mini is an exceptionally built tablet with a fantastic app library, but it's let down by a less than stellar display

"Every inch an iPad". That's Apple's marketing punchline for its smallest, lightest and newest iPad, the iPad mini . Claiming to offer all the features of the traditional, larger iPad, the iPad mini packs a 7.9in display into a superbly crafted body.
Pros:
  • Outstanding design and build quality
  • Excellent battery life
  • Fantastic apps ecosystem
Cons:
  • Non-retina display
  • Some smaller UI elements
  • Expensive

iPad Mini review

The iPad Mini is exactly what its name suggests it is – a smaller iPad. With a good build, decent screen and specs, and a solid ecosystem behind it, there's no doubt that it's a compelling device. Price will, undoubtedly, be a factor for many.

For the past few years, Apple has set the pace in the tablet market. With Amazon's Kindle Fire and Google's Nexus 7 gaining a firm foothold in compact tablets, however, Apple has found itself falling behind. Now it's hitting back with its own compact slate: the 7.9in iPad mini.

The iPad mini is not just the best looking iPad ever, but the best looking tablet we have ever seen. Period. The front is dominated by the 7.9-inch touch screen display, even more so than in the larger iPad simply because the bezel has been shrunk, and the single Home key beneath the display made...

Apple's iPad Mini reviewed

The iPad mini goes on sale 2 November, and while specs and features won't come as a surprise to many, I've been enjoying an early test run over the last week, using it in place of a  3 rd generation iPad – the one with the Retina display – to see how it fits into my daily life.

Apple iPad Mini in-depth review -

Check out our full comparison with Apple's iPad (fourth generation)! As much as we love Apple's iPad , the original tablet that sparked a slew of imitators, it isn't a very traveller-friendly device. At 652g, the iPad is a heavy little beast.
Pros:
  • Compact and light
  • Great battery life
  • Bright, colourful screen
  • Excellent App Store
Cons:
  • Premium price
  • Rival screens are sharper
  • No expandable storage
