The editors didn't like

  • Pricey
  • Lock/orientation switch is gone
  • Design is starting to get old
  • Doesn't actually fit the performance of the now-year-old iPad Air 2 into a Mini-sized body
  • The hardware mute/rotation lock switch is missed
  • Cases and covers from older Minis often won't work with this one
  • Big screen
  • Big experience
  • Access to Apple Pen or Smart Keyboard

  • Low
  • Low pricing
  • Unimpressive audio quality

  • Costly relative to Apple's own previous-gen (and still-available) Air and Mini iPads
  • Rotation-lock switch relegated to software
  • As ever
  • No storage expansion via MicroSD

  • Expensive
  • Occasional minor performance issues in testing
  • More expensive than competition
  • Little else
  • Still often feels like a step down from iPad Air 2. No 3D Touch display. 16GB capacity will be too small for most users. 1.2 MP iPad FaceTime camera feels outdated. The design has been tweaked enough that old iPad mini cases won't fit. Smaller battery mee

  • Gorgeous design, Touch ID fingerprint sensor, gold option, impressive performance, better cameras
  • Not quite as powerful as iPad Pro 9.7, no screen improvements, only available in 128GB, shorter battery life than predecessors
  • The iPad mini 4 is a great little tablet that comes in at a price that reflects its quality and capabilities. It looks gorgeous, is a breeze to use and leaves little to be desired. It's a shame that it hasn't been updated since September 2015, though.Tags...

  • Which budget-friendly iPad is best for you? If budget really is the be-all and end-all, the iPad 2017 is your best bet, because it starts at £339 instead of £419; bear in mind, however, that you're saving £80 because it comes with less storage. Still, you...

  • Abstract:  Sign up for our daily newsletter The days of the iPad Mini 3 are long gone, especially as it only existed for a year. Whereas the iPad Mini 2 was the equal of the original iPad Air in every way but size, the iPad Mini 3 lagged behind the iPad Air 2. Apar...

  • In many ways, the iPad mini remains the small tablet to beat. The performance enhancements in this version keep it ahead of its competitors, and iOS 9 is now well ahead of Android as a tablet operating system for most people. The quality of third-party ap...
