I tried using an iPad Mini as a phone.

[@amd2800barton]

I knew a lawyer who used an older iPad mini as his primary work device with no phone. He said it was great because most judges wouldn’t allow phones out in their court, but were fine with attorneys reading and taking notes on their tablets. He could go to court with just the mini and pencil in his jacket pocket, and not have to worry about a briefcase with files and junk going through security, and he could tell without interrupting court if his secretary had something urgent that he needed to step out to handle or if the text was just his buddy asking if they were still on for drinks next week.

It’s not such a crazy concept really. I think more realistic is a cellular Apple Watch, AirPods and an iPad Mini or Pro 11 if you don’t mind it not fitting in your pocket. A lot of people don’t take many calls from their phone these days, popping in some AirPods if it’s worth taking the call is easy enough. It would certainly cut down on distraction from your phone as you’d only get the iPad out as and when needed.

[@the_wiki9408]

If you want to run this way, I think the best workaround is to use a cheap used iPhone and just run your iPad over the phone's mobile hotspot. Then the phone can forward imessage and phone calls, you can just get the cheaper WiFi only iPad, and you still have a normal phone-only option for when the larger iPad is not convenient. Even when we do get a folding iPhone, it's going to cost $2k like Galaxy Fold. iPad mini + a used Xr is like $750.

So I am using that as a tablet for my 5 year old son and got this 9th gen version. MUCH faster, a little slimmer, smaller bezels, all around a leap forward. Plus, for the price that’s about $130-$150 cheaper than a current new model this is a nice deal. I look forward to the M-series CPUs coming into iPads which will really help future proof these tablets better but these latest CPUs are pretty strong and should do better to last several years with no compromises.

[@unloosedhades]

Do a bench test on your ipad, apps like GeekBench will do fine. It will show you your ipad model and compare it's performance to the average.

[@talllankywhiteboy]

Love Mac Address, but that graph at 2:16 does a terrible job conveying relative performance. Three of the four devices have run times within four seconds of each other on a nearly three minute task. For all practical purposes, they are the same, but the iPhone Pro Max looks way faster in this graph. And the iPhone 13 looks sluggish compared to the rest if you are just looking at the graph, when in reality its only 6% slower than the Pro Max. I understand the point was the emphasize the difference between the devices' performances, but if people have a hard time distinguishing the relative sizes of the bars with the full graph, then people will have the same difficulty noticing any real world performance difference between the devices.

I loved the look I got when the iPad rung and I put it up to my head to talk like it was just a uber large mobile phone. Good times!

So... I've been rocking a tablet as a phone since 2013, when I got my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0. I'm currently on a Samsung Galaxy Tab Active2, and planning to upgrade to a Tab Active3 soon. I gotta say, as someone who lives in this niche it's nice to feel seen! Although I should mention that all my devices have had full native phone capabilities (including earpieces). I lost the self-consciouness about weilding an 8" phone many years ago and I generally enjoy the comments I still regularly get when pulling it out to have a code scanned or tapping to pay. "Oh my god! Is THAT your PHONE?" "That's not a phone right? It's just a tablet?" Funilly enough, almost all my tablet-phone devices have also had pen support (my beloved Sony Z3 Tablet Copmpact did not), and I've always loved the freedom of being able to pull out my S-Pen to jot down a note or sketch something out. Thanks for spreading the word! Tablets are phones too!

@@_Digitalguy yep, super easy to do. A pry tool removes the back panel (it just pops off), and there are just some tiny Phillips head screws holding the battery in place. Took less than 10 minutes.

[@DaphneLowe]

Me too! I don't know why Samsung neglects the small tablet form factor and abandoned putting the S-Pen in them. When my last one (Tab A 8.0) got long in tooth, I tried using smartphones (Note 10, Fold 2) but was unsatisfied. The iPad Mini is nice, but the Pencil is not as well integrated into iOS is the S-Pen is into One UI.

I replaced my cell phone with a first generation iPad, back when those were new. Providers prevented me from having a reasonable cellular data plan for just a tablet (for no good reason), so I relied on wifi. I used Grand Central Station (now Google Voice) for phone calls. It was great back then. When the iPad kicked the bucket I got a killer deal on a cell phone plan and a free phone, which I'm riding to this day. Now, with phones being so large, and phone calls being such a small part of the purpose of a phone, there's even less reason to have a smart phone. I'm actually considering ditching cellular computing entirely these days. There aren't really places where I *need* data and don't have free wifi any more, except maybe on a road tip for maps and traffic.

[@jankoflak820]

I never really understood why would somebody buy the iPad mini. I mean if I was going to buy an iPad (or any other tablet, for that sake), I'd do so because I want to use the bigger screen real estate, no mater whether that be for digital note taking, media consumption or digital art. For me (and I dare to say for most people) the ideal screen size a tablet should have would be somewhere in the middle between a phone and a laptop, so around 10-12'' (concidering that most phones are around 6'' and laptops usualy have a 15.6'' screen - at least where I live in). The 8.3'' of the iPad mini just doesn't do it for me. I mean you can't even take advantage of the bigger screen of an tablet, if the "tablet" is really just a slightly bigger phone... And, as demonstrated in this video, you can essentially use a "tablet" as your phone (if you ommit the software hurdles Apple creates, such as the fact, that you can't use the iPad for phone calls, unless you have an iPhone)

Even when I do carry my phone around, it ends up being used as a camera more than anything else, because my 40% faster typing speed on the magic keyboard means I'm saving time if I pull out the ipad to shoot off some quick messages and take down a note.

This video wasn’t well researched. I’m using my iPad Mini 6 as a phone by linking it to my old iPhone 8 that sits at home on the charger. By going deep into the settings of iPhone & iPad you can allow iPad 6 to make & receive calls and texts. It works perfectly. Native calls & texts & iMessage & FaceTime (you make phone calls from the FaceTime app but it works perfectly to any number whether they have apple or not). No weird calling apps necessary. Google “call and text from iPad” and click apple’s support page giving step by step directions to activate it.

I am buying our first smart phone, we are also doing an iPad as a second phone without paying for a monthly cell phone plan! Woohoo!

[@KKei33]

That was my initial plan, to have the iPad mini 6 replace my iPhone 7plus after waiting patiently for an iPhone version that fits my ideal, a simple list of attributes, but certainly may not be so straightforward for apple to take 6 versions and not check the list. Also extremely torn as 13 is my number and was hoping 13 was gonna be the charm. So I’ve the iPad mini 6, but it’s nowhere close to replacing my 7plus (which is technically less than a year old since I went to apple store for battery replacement and they kaput the logic board- in which they shamefully replaced me with a brand new iPhone 7plus). I’ve tried many ways to break any loopholes there may be to seamless turn it into a max iPhone but failed.

A few years ago my iphone 6 broke so I ended up using my 1st gen Ipad mini as a phone. I remember going out to a club & asking a girl for her facebook and then pulling out my ipad mini & this was actually quite a funny conversation starter. It was not too bad I ended up using it as my primary device for 6 months!

[@NicksLocker]

That's so cool that you did this, it seems like a whole lot of us had this same idea! I feel like in the future with just a little more push like it could honestly be possible for it to be the larger-size iPhone for some poeple.

[@deleqtronica8733]

This has been possible forever now, Apple doesn’t want iPads being used as phones is the only reason why you won’t get an earpiece on an iPad Mini or a native dialer

I remember back in the days there were Cydia tweaks that could install the Phone app on iPads, is there anything like that nowadays? Every limitation seems to be still sw related

POV: You put a dBrand sticker on your iPad, and then your case and your Apple Pencil already had a dBrand sticker. The iPad one wasn’t the first time.

I love the Mini, I just wish it didn’t take them so long to update it to the pro style design. It would be the perfect e book for my personal taste.

IFixit have a very good kit for this repair. Do not use a static glue like superglue. The screen needs to be able to register a force press and there are certain glues that are specifically for this. It can even retain its waterproof seal

[@mattyp6908]

I did an iPad Mini as my main device like this & just had a cheap burner phone for normal, quick calls for a little over a year before. Totally doable.

[@zonaloca]

I'm all in about the new iPad mini. But the price tag and the fact that I will have to buy the 2nd gen pencil too, makes me keep my 5th gen for a couple more years.

[@agumon1605]

Do u have any trouble from using the 1st gen pen ones? The only drawback for me getting this mini 6 is also i have to buy the 2nd gen pen which in my country mini 6 + 2nd gen pen adds up about 2x the price of 5 gen mini + 1st gen pen...

[@zonaloca]

@@agumon1605 None at all, love the 1st gen pencil (I also have a Logitech Crayon, I wonder if that one works with newer ipads). I would just like a bigger screen and upgrade to 256gb.. but i guess i will not..

Thank you so much for this review. I literally woke up this morning and felt inspired by the iPad mini to use as a smartphone. Now I will have to rethink that hehe

I'm really not a fan of foldable phones but from what you have said, I'd realized how useful foldable phones are in the future. I'm watching comparison videos and looking for reasons why I should buy an iPhone or get the iPad mini, it's really hard choosing one.

[@Taylorc52]

I’ve been loving the Mac Address content! Beautiful videography and editing and Jonathon is a great host. One bit of constructive criticism, the Lightroom raw export chart (2:18) is very misleading. It needs to reflect the small differences more clearly rather than making some devices look magnitudes faster than others!

I got myself the latest iPad a few weeks ago and even though it’s so much bigger then my iPhone X I find myself using it more often. I really love my iPad
