iPad Mini 7 Review After 2 Months: The Only iPad Most People Should Buy

[@hoyoungwon]

What do you think is the 'default' tablet purchase on the Android side? 🤔

[@SalamatUK]

Very happy with a Redmi Pad SE

[@SPFboy86]

There aren't any on the Android side, sooner or later they become slow and laggy. iPads are the best tablets.

[@jammies701]

⁠@@SPFboy86 unnecessary and wasteful comment. It's still an interesting discussion

[@hectorhugo8986]

Tablets are useless.

bought the iPad mini and used it for one month now, absolutely love it, I owned iPad mini 1, 2, 3 in the past and love them. Skipped some minis before I am back again.

[@hoyoungwon]

Nice! Welcome back :)

[@majortree]

I recently bought the iPad Mini 7, the first iPad Mini I've ever owned. After using it and my iPad 10th Gen for a while, I decided to trade in the 10th Gen. I would have to agree, the Mini works well as an augment to my iPhone and MacBook Air, more so than the 10th Gen. Thanks for the review!

[@hoyoungwon]

Thanks so much for watching! Glad you're enjoying your Mini

[@JBass33]

I bought my 2018 iPad Pro 12.9” with cellular and 512GB when it came out and it cost about $1,600. I still use it everyday so it is hardly gathering dust. I have traveled throughout the US and parts of Europe with it and been reminded daily on those trips that it is just a little too big and heavy to carry around all the time. Because of its high price I never leave it in a hotel room. I do have an IPad mini on my Christmas list due to the smaller form factor and the chip that can handle AI. Can’t wait.

[@hoyoungwon]

Glad you're making good use of the Pro and hope the Mini can be a nice secondary option for you!

[@KellDogg1965]

The new mini7 looks a lot like my mini6. I still use my mini iPad all the time because of the convenient size.

[@hoyoungwon]

So convenient 🥹

[@NarendraMnr]

Purchased the iPad Mini 7 for the size, hated it as soon as i started using cause i can literally feel the lagging of the display (used iPad Pro and using the iPhone 16 Pro for context) and put it on for sale. BUT, Here me out. While waiting for a buyer, started using as there's nothing else to do and I started to Love the thing. It's so Good to use. Just picking it up feels so good strangely. Safe to say, keeping it.

[@jammies701]

Improved standby time is nice. My mini 6 only lasts a few days sitting around

[@hoyoungwon]

Definitely!

[@ImAGamingPro]

I had the m4 11” and while the display was magical it was overkill for my uses. I sold it and grabbed a 256 gb mini and it’s probably my favorite piece of tech I’ve had in a decade. Specs are great, but they don’t always tell the whole story.

[@alanchrishughes]

Really hard to buy this when for just $100 more you can get the Air with much better specs, but then you're stuck with the larger device which I really don't want. Apple made a real lose-lose situation here.

[@hoyoungwon]

If you're worried about specs... I don't think the mini is the way to go for you

[@alanchrishughes]

@@hoyoungwon That's what I'm saying, it made more sense when they had the same specs, just different screen sizes (and slightly cheap price).

But do you actually need the better specs?

[@alanchrishughes]

mainly I don't want jelly scrolling and wanna be able to use an external display

[@Tapot_goo]

The screens are the same quality, the build quality is the same, the reason people buy the mini is because its mini, if you want an air you might as well get a iPad pro for that display to work with the M chip

[@c.a.6636]

Short, sweet, and to the point 💪

[@hoyoungwon]

🙏🙏

[@sizzy6410]

Is this good for teachers? I'd love to use a small ipad for my classes, but I want to know if the size will be appropriate tho.

[@warrengaskin3863]

I’ve owned the Mini 5 and now the 6 but I’m going to skip the 7 because I don’t see any reason at least for my usage to warrant an upgrade

[@superchichu560]

Smart decision, Gen 17 is great for gen 5 or non mini users. For gen 6 is dumb upgrade as of now.

[@1ctf749]

I have a m1 iPad Pro 11 inch and it’s nice but I do like the compact feeling of the iPad mini I used the mini 2 for quite a while before my iPad Pro although I wish the iPad mini had 120hz and mabye oled and it be almost perfect sure am considering getting a iPad mini again.

[@abcborgess]

Wallpaper?

[@MikesVegas]

If it wasn’t so dang expensive, I’d buy one. I’ve had the mini 2, 4 and 5 ($399) I’m using the iPad 10 now ($259) and loving the size. $500 for a smaller iPad doesn’t seem justifiably right now. 😎

[@shawnpitchford6220]

I’ve had my 11 my pro for a Couple months and I don’t go a single day without it 😂 the mini is to close to the size of my phone

[@Tapot_goo]

I’ve got the new mini, I love it the only thing it needs is a oled display, the size is perfect tho I tried using my moms iPad 10 and it was very big and bulky. Comparing this to my old iPad Air 2 the size of the mini is perfect

[@jammies701]

Nice vid mate. I think the talking speed is fine, I run it at 1.25x, but rather than trying to change your speaking speed, having proper subs might be an alternative. However, that'll always be a preference thing I have the 6, love it basically only for the size, and I'd love to upgrade for the new processor, but no 120Hz and the crap trade-in value is a buzzkill

[@hoyoungwon]

English subs are always available on my videos! No 120Hz is definitely a bummer

[@jammies701]

@ ahh great, I guess i didn't notice

[@danixjk3808]

nice video, but can u tell me about de comfortable with apple pencil pro in a screen 8,3” compared with 11” than ipad air ? pls

[@diamondsauthority4143]

for notes taking it’s completely fine. but for drawing/sketching it depends on every person, but imo it feels okay (not too small)

[@hoyoungwon]

It's a lot more cramped for sure but depends what you need a pen for. Annotating and short notes/memos here and there are fine. But for anything else, it's going to feel a bit cramped

[@superrenda927]

Do you think the 128GB version is worth it?

[@hoyoungwon]

For my use case, definitely!

[@superrenda927]

@hoyoungwon Thanks! I bought the 128GB version and was afraid it wouldn't be enough for the next few years.

[@shakir4969]

ONLY 5000 mah battery?? Oh they definitely can fit a LOT more battery in that thing

[@hoyoungwon]

They could've or couldn't, but either way, really great battery performance

[@shakir4969]

@@hoyoungwon they definitely could considering a lot of smartphones now ships with that capacity

[@22jeepmojave75]

Better buy iPad Air 11 over mini 7. Unless you wanted portability.

[@JK-xz1lt]

I have to disagree on the screen. It looks nice, until I scroll. It just looks so stuttery compared to my Fold 4. It really should've gotten a higher refresh screen. I like everything else about it. I just bought one cause I always wanted one, and I am gonna use it for work.

[@hoyoungwon]

Hope you enjoy it! Maybe my eyes are just more tolerant about the 60Hz iOS/iPadOS experience 🤷‍♂️

il n y a pas de tiroir pour la carte sim .pour les voyageurs,pour les businessman c’est zéro 000000.å chaque changement de pays vous devez aller voir le fournisseur de numéro de téléphone et les embrouilles commencent.une histoire de fou. j’ai acheté une tablette samsung moins chère et aussi performante avec tiroir carte sim merci samsung

Why the heck would u recommend people a 60hz rr ipad.

[@SalamatUK]

Please talk slower! Thanks for the vids, anyway, and Season's greetings!

[@hoyoungwon]

Will do :) thanks for watching and happy holidays!

[@lukekoletsios3236]

@@hoyoungwon I think your talking speed is great. Talk however feels natural and the viewers and speed up or slow down the video if they'd like. P.S. I clicked on this video because I've been considering swapping my Macbook 14 inch for a small Ipad so that I can use it everywhere without it feeling chunky

[@lukekoletsios3236]

Okay so I just realised Ipad mini's don't come with keyboards, I assume because it's too small for a keyboard that size to be typed with.

[@fandyramadhana6554]

"60Hz on IPadOS, Feelys more like a 90hz Android phone" ? 60hz will always be 60hz, feeling like 90hz is your subjective.

[@hoyoungwon]

A review is always subjective my friend lol

[@PineappleOnPizza69]

@@hoyoungwon you are talking about numbers. 60 hertz is 60 hertz. Mathematics doesnt care about your feelings

[@shakir4969]

agreed but I do believe that apple have the fastest feeling 60hz display out there
