I have a "regular" (not mini) iPad" for 2 years now (which I bought used / 2nd hand), and I find it a little bit too big to hold for my more or less only way of using it, which is watching youtube videos. I think the iPad mini is better for my needs, but it's quite expensive and I'm surprised there are no other competition in the "mini" size (7-9 inches), by other tablet manufacturers such as Google, Samsung etc., which is unfortunate.

I bought a Mini for the first time. Had other iPads from the very first one, but they spent most of the time inside a drawer. My iPad Pro with Apple pencil, magic keyboard, mouse, ... it never replaced my Macbook Pro, and it was heavy to carry around, therefore it also stayed in the drawer. Now I want this Mini on my desk next to my office laptop, even my Mac, to replace paper notebooks, post it notes, highlighters, various pens and pencils. It's easier to place it into a handbag, scribble notes while working, and attending evening classes, supermarket shopping list, watch TV, KZbin videos, read books, check e-mails, ... I'm still learning how to make better use of it with the Apple pencil. And I almost forgot, the cheapest Apple product to get into Apple Intelligence. So I like it 😊

I had the 12.9” M1 Pro, but it was too big to take everywhere, so I got the iPad mini 6 when it came out. When the new M2 iPad Air came out, I traded in my pro and got it, thinking I’d replace both iPads with that one. While I love the Air and use it frequently, I upgraded and got the mini 7th gen and it’s great. I got the cellular version and I’m sitting in the car, waiting for my daughter to get out of school, watching KZbin. I also like using it to read Kindle books, the Bible and I use it at😊 church to take notes. It pretty much goes everywhere with me.

The mini is the best size for studying imo, since you can so easily bring it anywhere, and you can easily hold it in one hand without getting tired. But it's still big enough even for split-screen tasks. It's also the best size for gaming. Either when using touch-input, or various controllers.

My other iPad is a 12.9 which is way too big to conveniently and comfortably use as a handheld device. Buying an 11/10.9 would be smaller, but close enough to the big one that it would feel redundant. Mini fits into its own category for me. Although I would still prefer the perfect iPad screen size, the ultimate balance between size and portability, the 9.7” screen. 11” just makes things in portrait too awkwardly big (such as ebooks, and manga looks particularly ridiculous at that size).

Chiming in to push back a little bit on who it’s for. I have a laundry list of Apple devices (2 iPads, 2 Macs, iPhone, Apple Watch, Vision Pro) and my iPad mini is BY FAR my most used daily device. I use it like most people use their iPhones. There are many days where my phone doesn’t even leave the charger. I prefer the iPad mini over everything because even though it’s still small enough to be handheld like a phone, it runs iPadOS which I prefer greatly over iOS. I love being able to multitask and slide over apps and obviously can’t do that on iPhone. It’s not the most powerful device I own and I can’t do everything on it, but I only go to another device when I can’t get something done on the mini, which is rare. I’d give up my iPhone altogether if iPad mini could do things like pair with Apple Watch or support CarPlay. To me it’s so much more than a luxury nightstand device. It’s my daily driver and I can’t imagine life without it.

I used to be an ipad mini person when i was a teenager (that was when the first ipad mini came out) I could have gotten an ipod touch but at the time i could only afford one or the other with the money i earned from my summer job and i chose an ipad over an ipod bc it was way better for games, streaming, journaling, etc (the ipod touch was seriously tiny!) the ipad mini was the perfect middle ground for me, more portable than the regular sized ipad 4 but much better for doing fun things on than the ipod touch. I carried it everywhere with me for years and eventually i only stopped getting ipad minis when i was an adult bc the base model ipads are way cheaper.

Great review. I thought the “jelly scrolling” issue was a nothing burger until you showed how it might impact Ferrite podcast editing. Still not a deal breaker for me, but not as insignificant as I once thought One improvement I was sure YOU would mention, given your excellent demos about USB-C port implementation in the iPhone, is that the USB-C port on the mini 7 has doubled to 10gbps maximum (up from 5gbps). This new speed puts it in line with the larger iPads, which means you can work more productively with hubs and external SSDs.

You lose me when you say "larger screen." The iPad mini has always been the perfect size for me. It's big enough but never too big. It's CRAZY portable. It even fits in my jacket pocket. It's never too heavy to hold. It's the size of a half-page of letter-sized paper which is the ideal size for me. When the physical Home button on my old iPad mini with Retina display broke I seriously considered getting the iPad mini 6, especially when it came out in purple. But I decided to wait for the refresh and I'm so glad I did. I was really looking forward to USB-C and really, really hoping for Apple Pencil Pro support and we got it!! Perfect!

I’ve got the mini 7, love it, but it has a downside compared to my previous mini 5: the missing home button. On larger ipads you would need two hands anyway to get to the home screen, but on this small ipad now you need two hands as well. While it is perfect to hold itin one hand. Also, the touch id in the top button is awkward if you’re using a folio. The edges of the folio get in the way. I have re-added the home button on-screen (accessibility feature).

No, I'm not going to upgrade to the iPad Mini 7. My Mini 6 is still good, the battery last long enough. I use mine as reading and travelling device. For home use I have an 11 inch Air. My Mini doesn't need to be capable of Apple Intelligence, because it is not available where I live and my native language is not English, so when AI is available in it will be quite some time. I think Apple didn't do much to the new iPad Mini 7, they just give it just enough of a spec bump to make it capable of Apple Intelligence. So maybe in a year of two the Mini 8 will be much better for me to upgrade to, hopefully it will have an OLED display.

My iPad Pro M2 on 18.0 will read out my announcements, which is very helpful to me because I can turn the screen off when I’m doing something else and still get my announcements. The iPad mini that I just recently purchased and is on 18.1 does not do that. I want to know if this is a feature taken away in 18.1 or is it just that the iPad mini can’t do it? If it is a take away feature from 18.1 I will not be updating my iPad Pro. But if it’s just a lack of the iPad mini, I can go ahead and update the iPad Pro.

The magnets are in a different place on the 7 as it works with the Pencil Pro. That’s why the Pencil 2 doesn’t work. I’d assume your third party pencil has the magnets in the same place as the Pencil 2.

It's so small, compact, you can put it in a sling bag and travel really lightly everywhere with it, that comfort? Only with this Ipad

Does it support Apple Pencil 2?
@beardfmАй бұрын
Apple Pencil Pro or the USB-C only version, but not the previous wireless Pencil

@ Ah, that’s unfortunate. Looks like the M-Series iPad Air, etc. would also need an upgrade from Apple Pencil 2, too. $$$

All I want to know is I have an iPad mini 6 and I only use it for comics. So I can’t see the push to upgrade

I have a mini six and if the screen was fixed, camera was bumped up this would become my main computer, but it’s not so I’m still sticking with my Mac and I am not gonna upgrade from the six cause it’s pointless for me

i was thinking about buying one of these for studying, but i have a pro iphone, wich has a 120hz display... then i have doubt, writing with the apple pencil and beeing accustomed to use a 120hz display, would it be bad to use a 60hz?
