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
  • Too wide for some
  • Pricier than many 7-inch alternatives
  • That are poorly positioned

  • Abstract:  The arrival of the 7.9-inch iPad Mini isn't perhaps a complete reverse course for Apple – the tech juggernaut has often been pragmatic in the face of customer demand (just take a look at the diverse array of iPods as an example) and to be fair, the Mini's...

  • The iPad mini is exactly what it says on the box — it's a smaller, lighter but still fully functional and powerful version of Apple's iconic iPad tablet, with obvious design inspiration taken from the iPhone 5. As with most Apple products, the iPad mini ...

  • If you are in desperate need of a small tablet, and already have thousands of dollars sunk into iOS, and don't watch much video, and have never used a retina display, and have Scrooge McDuckian levels of disposable income, then yes. You should buy the iPa...

  • Outstanding design and build quality, Excellent battery life, Fantastic apps ecosystem
  • Non-retina display, Some smaller UI elements, Expensive
  • If Apple's iPad mini was equipped with a retina display, we wouldn't hesitate deeming it the best iPad ever. The iPad mini is an exceptionally constructed tablet with excellent battery life and an unsurpassed app ecosystem that the competition simply can'...

  • Most of the full-size-iPad experience in a smaller, lighter package; all existing iPad apps run natively; wireless capabilities and cameras on par with fourth-generation iPad; very good performance; incredibly solid construction and beautiful design
  • No Retina display; some apps and websites feel a little cramped on the smaller screen; landscape keyboard is too small for easy touch-typing, Wi-Fi: $369 (16GB); $479 (32GB); $589 (64GB). Wi-Fi + Cellular: $509 (16GB); $619 (32GB); $729 (64GB)

  • If you've always wanted this form factor along with iOS and its bountiful selection of lovely apps, now is the time to jump in. The 16GB Wi-Fi version isn't as absurdly priced as its brothers in the range and if you use the cloud correctly you won't need...
