The editors didn't like
It is hard to read eBooks in direct sunlight because of the reflective-glass screen
Lack of Retina display and lower resolution will be a deal breaker for some
Price higher than anticipated
Firstgeneration device
Lots to improve on
Overpriced
Display is a total letdown
And it could be a bit peppier
Gamers who are unimpressed with the iPad 2's performance will remain unimpressed with the iPad mini
May feel more cramped when typing on-screen in landscape mode
Doesn't have a Retina display
Smart Cover for the mini costs as much as the original Smart Cover
Lack of Retina display will disappoint those already accustomed to that display technology
Pricey for screen size
Display resolution lower than latest-gen 7-inch tablets
Lightning port incompatible with older accessories
Lacks HDMI port
Memory-card slot
Expensive. Wide. Slippery
Screen not HD
Limited parental controls
Relatively pricey
50 MB iTunes limit over 4G
Android and Amazon tablets -- and even Windows laptops -- are available for less. Base model includes only 16GB of non-expandable storage. It's missing the Touch ID fingerprint sensor and split-screen feature found on newer iPads
No highresolution display
It looks weak compared to every other iOS device
Lastgen hardware is significantly slower than current iOS devices
And it'll be even weaker than most Android devices in the near future
Like all iOS devices
Will the 2nd versi
Little too expensive
No Retina display
Lower resolution than the Android competition
Nonresolution independent UI results in more zooming in on text
Less practical as an allpurpose device against the larger iPad
Resolution not as impressive as other tablets tested
Few connectivity options
Only two speakers
No Smart Keyboard compatibility
No Face ID
No USB-C
Physical Touch ID home button
Relatively low-res
Compared to Retina iPads. Slower than iPad with Retina Display. Older internals may become obsolete quicker.
Battery falls modestly short of Apple’s 10-hour claim under some circumstances. Base $329 price tag is a little high
Especially considering the additional expense of Lightning accessories and Apple’s decision to pack in an unnecessarily slow charger.
No Retina screen
Lightning connector adapter is expensive
No microSD
More expensive than Android competitors
No Retina display. iSight camera suspect. Corners cut on power adapter. Some iPhone apps at 2x may not look great. More expensive than most had hoped
Low resolution display
Low resolution screen can be bothersome from close viewing distances
Pricey
IOS is boring
Purchasing
You can buy an iPad Mini starting at $329 for the 16GB model in your choice of black or white. If you want cellular data with LTE
You now have three
Screen isn't as good as Apple's Retina display
Screen is lower resolution than the competition
Can sometimes be a little awkward to hold
Expensive
New 326 PPI Retina display matches past iPads in resolution but falls noticeably short in color performance
Some screens also have image retention issues. Larger battery adds slightly to thickness and weight of original iPad mini. A7 processor speed matc
Apple betreedt met de iPad mini en zijn 7.9 inch scherm een nieuw strijdveld en ze pakken het goed aan. De keuze van materialen, hoe de tablet aanvoelt en de afwerking voldoen allemaal aan de belofte van een premium apparaat. Het totale gewicht in comb...
Goede bouw, Lekker licht, Handzaam formaat, Prima prestaties, Veel geoptimaliseerde apps, Gratis videobellen en sms'en
Prijs aan de hoge kant, Laag resolutie scherm, Geen panoramamodus
Ondanks dat de iPad mini een stuk kleiner is dan haar grotere broertjes, doet de tablet nog steeds de iPad-naam veel eer aan. De tablet lijkt bijzonder veel voordelen te hebben tegenover zijn grotere broertjes door zijn formaat. Zo is het allereerst erg p...
De Apple iPad Mini is ons goed bevallen. Als je op dit moment nog geen echt mobiel bestaan hebt en dus nog niet in het bezit bent van een of meerdere smartphones of tablets, zit er weinig verschil tussen de Apple iPad Mini en de ASUS Nexus 7 als we puu...
Licht en dun, Goede bouwkwaliteit, Handzamer dan gewone iPad
Matig scherm, Relatief duur, Misschien net te breed
Na een tijdje de iPad mini gebruikt te hebben vragen we ons eigenlijk af wat de meerwaarde is van de 'normale' iPad. Dat komt omdat er niet wordt ingeboet op functionaliteit met de kleinere behuizing. Natuurlijk is een groter scherm in sommige gevallen f...
Mobiel door afmetingen en gewicht, Goede bouwkwaliteit, Stabiel OS met grote keuze in apps, media en meer
Aan de prijzige kant, Nieuwe Lightning connector, Geen top display
Ondanks het niet-retina scherm is de iPad mini naar mijn mening in veel opzichten de beste iPad tot nu toe. Het hangt echter wel af van je wensen of de iPad mini ook de beste iPad voor jou is. De grens lijkt vooral te liggen bij de eventuele wil om ook ...
Apple weet weer de aandacht op zich te vestigen met een tablet waarmee je gezien mag en wilt worden. Ondanks dat het scherm wat tegenvalt en het geluid ook te wensen overlaat, is Apple er toch weer in geslaagd om een goed afgerond product af te levere...
De iPad Mini wint het van de 7 inch-tablets van concurrenten op het gebied van snelheid, gewicht, stevigheid , accuduur en apps, maar moet wat betreft schermkwaliteit terrein prijsgeven. Een eenvoudige overwinning dus. Toch bleven wij ons tijdens de geh...
Laag gewicht, Lekker dun, Compact formaat, Robuust, Fraai afgewerkt, Ligt lekker in de hand, Twee camera's, Sneller dan Nexus 7, Goede accuduur
Kleuren en resolutie beeldscherm vallen wat tegen, Langzamer dan 3e en 4e generatie iPad, Nog steeds prijzig
De iPad mini heeft een 7,9" scherm waar de originele iPad een schermdiagonaal heeft van 9,7". Hierdoor kun je de nieuwe iPad mini eenvoudig met één hand vasthouden. Bij de grotere iPad heb je altijd beide handen nodig. Verder is de iPad mini met 7,2 mm 23...

Handzaam, Licht en compact
Twijfels over krasbestendigheid zwarte versie
De iPad mini is veel meer dan een verkleinde iPad 2. Nieuwe materialen, andere productietechnieken en de technologische vooruitgang hebben feitelijk een tablet van de 2de generatie opgeleverd. Zeker bij een klein model, dat daardoor ook veel handzame...
