This is the first generation of the iPad mini, and it uses a lower voltage charger than gen 2 and 3, but still I was sent a cheap non-Apple charger that tends to get hot when charging. Other than that, I have no complaints about this refurbished item. It worked well out of the box.

I love my IPAD mini. Small enough to fit in my purse, but big enough to see and use. I had a coupon and it was on sale, so the price well beat any other ADVERTISED PRICE.

Purchased the IPad mini 16gb Wifi as a gift for my dad and I have to say its an excellent decision. My Dad loved it!! I have had a good experience in my purchase of a IPOD in the past and had the trust that apple products had the quality in them. It stands true to-date.

I love the iPad mini I have the white model. Even though it came out almost 2 years ago it is still one of the faster tablets on the market. I like iOS 7's functionality but not design!

The iPad mini was bought for my son could play and have fun with various games, but he has been effective for me too, with internet access. The downside is that the battery drains quickly.

Bought as a gift for granddaughter for Christmas. She plays with nothing but that. She tells me everyday thanks for her Apple ipad. She can face time my son daily because he lives in another state and has a Apple iPhone. What a blessings for Apple products.

This is the first iPad generation mini. Almost no difference in build, looks and feel with the latest model except that display is not retina quality. But it's still really very good, it updates with the latest iOS and given the price is a fantastic catch.

I use it for my disabled 5 year old son who has cerebral palsy, has great communication apps, its hard for him to talk so we use this so he can show us what he's saying. This item has something for every age. We love it. He loves the apps he doesn't know he's learning at the same time.

Got an iPad Mini for Christmas and have not gone one day where I don't pick it up. I use it for music, videos, games, and as an E-reader. I would highly recommend the Mini as it's lightweight and a perfect size. Still great even though the screen ain't retina. Great battery life too.

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.
