I recently "downgraded" from an M1 ipad pro 11 inch to an iPad mini 6. I agree that it is far more usable than the larger ipads.

[@QasimZafar]

@mhans311 - It definitely is a great iPad and I see myself using it for a long time.

[@joshuawalker7038]

Same!

[@Yogesh_Raj15]

I've complete consensus wid its portability & power. NOTHING can beat its Usability

I bought a second hand iPad mini 6 cellular recently and I love it. Learning drawing on it and its my fav time pass.

[@herb601]

Okay, I'm going just say it..................I believe I wrote the dialog for this video. EVERYTHING you said is how I feel about my iPad 6. I have the 10.9 Air that frankly, the only time I use is it when my Mini is charging. It's not comfortable. I had an earlier Mini before this that I gave to my sister, and she feels the same way, she loves it. It is, IMO, the epitome of perfection. I keep thinking I need the cover but 99% of the time, I use mine in portrait. For reading in bed, I am using a Kindle only because I used to fall asleep with my Mini and it would fall on my face as I dozed off (pardon the prep). Trust me, that hurts. Great job, Qasim. TU.🙂

[@QasimZafar]

@Laurie - Thank you so much I’m really glad you feel the same way! The mini is perfect for my needs and I really believe it can be a great iPad for 90% of us. Haha yes dropping it on your head is not fun! Thanks for watching I really appreciate it 🙏🏽😊.

[@MJGumi]

True. I have kindle and it’s size is perfect. I also have iPad 9 with keyboard and trackpad. Not using it as a laptop to be honest due to iPadOS limitations. Next gen iPad mini will be mine for sure

[@RedheadLG]

Completely agree. I stubbornly stuck to the 11 inch Pro for years, thinking I needed the better screen. I hardly ever used it due to the size, and would occasionally pick it up and try to force myself to use it for a few days, but it never stuck. I finally traded it in for the mini and have been using it nonstop. Would love for it to have pro motion but it’s definitely not a dealbreaker.

[@QasimZafar]

@RedheadLG - Yup I’ve always nututally been inclined to holding an iPad and for that the mini just does so well. It’s comfortable, portable and performs really well. I have zero complaints.

[@joshuawalker7038]

Did the same, pro motion is nice and all but I’ve been loving the mini

[@OhWanya]

I bought from day 1 the mini 6 256gb lte and never regretted it ! I love it for daily task ! Maybe I’m to much of a couponer but grocery shopping with the iPad in my hand is my favourite; I use an app like reebee that helps me see prices and sales from any store around me and helps me cut down on cost! Uses it has gps since I have the lte ( only lte has the gps tracking) when I’m abroad! Netflix/Disney for the occasional tv show in the car! Number colouring apps really gets the kids occupied when we wait somewhere! It replaced my kindle ; I can rearrange my collection so easily. I have a little nook in my kitchen that fits the mini if I want to follow recepies or side watch something. I have an arm in my car for the iPad to be my companion ; gps or any car app . It fits all my purses and it’s always there!

[@MrJerkfaceKevin]

A note on the Mini’s display, it has the P3 wide color gamut which covers the entire sRGB color range and also has some overlap with Adobe RGB color range. Adobe & sRGB are common color profiles for photo and video, so this does provide great color accuracy for editing both. I recently photographed a small wedding and edited the photos entirely on the iPad, I even tried connecting it to my ultrawide monitor but the colors looked completely blown out and saturated , so i went back editing directly on the iPad itself.

[@QasimZafar]

@MrJerkfaceKevin - That’s awesome and yes the colors on the iPad minis screen definitely look good 😊

You took the words right out of my mouth …I bought one last week and I feel exactly the same

So many people expect so much from every single Apple device release. I get it ,you’re paying a good amount of money from these deb. But to hear someone focus mainly on the pros is making my thoughts quieter and now I feel relaxed so thank you!

[@GregBrecker]

I used to have an ipad mini and loved it. It became dated and constricted for later needs, so I sold it. listening to your comments, I could see myself again falling in love with the form factor. Especially considering what I would primarily use it for. Thank you for not overselling some particular product. Just the pure love of using the form factor.

[@QasimZafar]

@Greg Brecker - That’s what stood out most to me and made the overall experience so much better of using an iPad…it’s perfect and you should get one again 😊😎

[@brucekrisinger4827]

I used to have a third gen iPad Pro and an iPad Air....after buying the iPad mini 6, I sold both of them. The iPad mini does everything I need an iPad for. I got the 256GB WiFi only version and find myself using this way more than my others. I love it. I recently started putting the back cover only case on it (Vaja has a great leather case) and a screen protector instead of the Apple folio smart cover and find it a lot handier to grab and use but still have screen and back protection.

[@lizzielein777]

Sounds like me, going from Pro to Air and now back to the Mini. I’m happy with it. I don’t want any other larger iPad ever again

You hit the nail on the head towards the end. I had an iPad Air 4 and found myself having to force myself to use it. I bought the Mini 6 a few weeks ago and I think I’ve already gotten more use out of it than I have with the Air over the last 2 years. It is a perfect device. Only con is the price in my opinion, but if you can look past that it is an ideal piece of hardware. Good video!

[@QasimZafar]

@Jordan Bell - I think the price is something that’ll pay for itself as time passes especially if you keep it long enough. It’s definitely a great tablet and I’m enjoying having an iPad I actually can take full use of.

Yessss! I freakin adore my iPad mini6. I take it with me everywhere in my pouch. When I’m home, I don’t touch my phone at all. I handle texts on the iPad and I use it to watch KZbin, for notes, read books, movies, etc. I got the 256gb. I have a ton of downloaded movies and shows. Most of all…it’s lightweight and fits in my hand. I only wish the next gen mini offers a 1TB variant.

[@zuzanahoudkova4497]

I had a 10th gen iPad kzbin.infoUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA . Felt it getting pretty slow at times even after doing a reset. 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.

[@QasimZafar]

It’s honestly a great device and I’m happy to hear you’re enjoying it.

@John Lee - It really is a perfect device. The iPad was always meant for basically being a larger iPhone and until it’s limitations are removed a non pro iPad is the way to go for me. Thanks for your feedback and for watching John!

[@bobtaylor5584]

I too love the iPad mini 6, and my main “computer “ is now my M1 iPad Pro with external monitor functionality. I use the larger iPad to write longer emails or other documents, take care of accounting and other files for my business, and edit photos. I’m a personal trainer, and I take the mini with me to record reps and sets of my clients using OneNote. This syncs beautifully with my larger iPad where I finalize client sessions when I get back to my office. I happen to have an older Mac mini that I turn on from time to time just to keep the OS up to date, and it really feels like a dinosaur with an overly complex file system and antiquated OS in general. I find iPadOS much nimbler and capable on both my iPads. Thanks for your fine video. I really enjoyed it.

[@QasimZafar]

@Bob Taylor - That’s awesome bob! You definitely fall into the category of both use cases. I’d find it hard to replace my MacBook simply because of my workflow but I’m glad you’ve found a way to make iPad OS work for yoy.

GREAT insightful review ! iPads are meant to be held CONVENIENTLY in the hand, and are meant to be portable ! I've had iPads since 2010, and been a "raving fan" of the iPad mini since its debut in 2012. The iPad mini 6 is a pure powerhouse !

I wanted to love ipad mini and yet they don't have portable keyboard integrated with this device. I need to have a device I can use to watch, detach from the keyboard and also use the keyboard for productivity without the need to use pencil or digital keyboard from the screen. I doubt the ipad mini will be an option in this case. I been aiming ipad pro m1 instead of m2 which minor difference

[@terrywarnold]

Very good video. I have had almost every size iPad imaginable. All the way back to the very first iPad. I got my first mini back in, I believe, 2013 and loved it but, after a while I wanted something bigger. Over the years I got different iPads and in all honesty never could settle on one. Over the last couple years I found myself wanting just one device to do everything on and at one time had the 12.9 inch Pro. I found that one to be too big for my liking. I downsized and thought I found my "never changing again" device with the 10.9 inch iPad. I had paired it with the ESR Magnetic Rebound Keyboard case that resembles the Magic Keyboard and thought I was in tech heaven lol. Well, I ran into road blocks when I decided I wanted to start vlogging. I found that the workflow to edit videos wasn't feasible for me on the iPad. Once I removed that equation, I found I really didn't even need that big of an iPad to just do content consumption. This has led me all the way back to the Mini. So far, I love it cause I'm not trying to make it something it's not. Right now, I'm using a Mini 4 but, I will soon be getting the Mini 6 or may hold off for the Mini 7. If you look at the mini for what it is, which is a tablet, it's a perfect complement to a MacBook/laptop. I know this was a long comment but that's just my thoughts.

[@QasimZafar]

@terrywarnold - I have also experimented and been back and forth between iPads before landing on the mini. Once you use this and realize this is all that an iPad needs to be you really can’t go back to anything else. For me it’s a bigger screen from my 13 mini and the perfect in between screen between that and my 14” MacBook pro. I’m glad the 4 is working well for you and hopefully you can upgrade soon. Thanks for the comment and watching I really appreciate it 🙏🏽.

Just got the iPad mini Wi-Fi. Love it. Sometimes use the hotspot off my iPhone. But you mentioned Wi-Fi from your car? My Subaru Forrester offers this (from AT&T only) but I’m not sure exactly how well it works. Can you offer any personal experience with the car Wi-Fi?

[@QasimZafar]

@blue43921 - Happy to hear that! My car offers tmobile as the service provider and it works great for me. Regardless of where I’ve been the speeds have been great enough to run several devices off of my car Wi-Fi. I had a trial when I bought my 5series and after using it I was convinced it’ll be a good addition. My iPad by default connects to the car Wi-Fi and works much better than using hotspot. I actually had Verizon for my cell service for years but I recently switched to tmobile and the coverage for 5G is sooooo much better in my area. Hope this helps and thanks for watching I really appreciate it 🙏🏽.

What monitor do you have?

[@TerryManitoba]

Quick inquiry - If you glue 2 of your metal rings to the back of the Mini & affix it two of your magnetic phone car mounts - Do you think that it would be a practical way to mount a mini in a vehicle. I mainly would like to know if the magnets are strong enough to keep the Mini in place when driving. BTW - check out the ESR - trifold or magnetic case. That's the one I will likely get when I get my Mini 7...

[@QasimZafar]

@Terry B - Hi Terry, yes that will actually work…if you have enough space for it then it’s awesome I had long time ago done this with the nexus 7 tablet and it was awesome because that car had no screen. Alright I’ll give those a look for sure.

[@TerryManitoba]

@@QasimZafar I mounted my mini to several vehicles over 10 ish years using a Ram Suction a/w Ram Mini holder - worked great. But being able to glue the rings to the 7 (when I get it) and simply plop it on the magnets (al la iPhone) would be nicer IMO.

[@freddyjason3142]

I think it’s subjective on what your workflow is, but I have the 12.9" M2 iPad Pro and I use it a lot more than my 16" MacBook Pro, because it’s more than capable of handling my workflow. I edit 4K video, draw, take notes and produce music on my iPad Pro, and I need more real estate for what I do. The mini just wouldn’t be able to do what I use it for. For what you use it for it, makes more sense to have the mini and it is definitely way more comfortable in the hand

My iPad is my only computer. I can do websites, photographs, and video making. Plus doing a lot a social media. Now I’m thinking of getting a 12.9, but because of what you said I might just stick with the 11”!

[@QasimZafar]

@Shawn Evans - If the 11” is working out for you I’d stick with it. Only go for the 12.9 if you really need an increase in the screen size.

[@shawnevans26]

@@QasimZafar Thanks! Yeah being my only computer I was thinking the 12.9, but if the 11” can do the same thing I’ll get it. Plus it takes up less space.

[@gemlenz]

I have an IPad pro 2108. I do alot of Procreate drawing on it . I like to faceid . I don't like the weight of it especially when I'm drawing. since I don't lay the ipad on a flat surface. I tried setting it up as a computer replacement. (I have a windows PC). I got a Logitech keyboard mouse, In the end I just couldn't make the transition. I like the looks of the mini and the fact that it is lighter. I don't do any travelling. So that's not an issue for me. Should I sell my Ipad 11 and get a mini? That's the big question. If I wait until the mini 7 comes out I might me alo to get min 6 even cheaper then they are now. What sre your thoughts? Your video was intriguing and makes me think before I buy a mini.

[@QasimZafar]

@gemlenz - I had the same iPad Pro which I switched for the mini. I would say just go for the mini, you’ll really enjoy the fact that you can actually hold it comfortably. The iPad serves as a great in between device and for that the mini is perfect.

[@Alphaangell]

I love the iPad mini 6 it does what I want it to do I hate gimmicks and like foldable phones like why lol for me I wouldn’t mind an iPad without a camera I don’t care lol good job awesome review

[@QasimZafar]

@AlphaAngel - I do too, it’s really a perfect little tablet and does an exceptional job in fulfilling my needs. Thanks for the feedback I really appreciate it🙏🏽.

[@jsjxyz]

Couldn't agree more, try buy MOFT Keyboard to match its when you travel.

[@QasimZafar]

Will look into it for sure, thanks for watching I really appreciate it 🙏🏽

[@marctestarossa]

I would love to have an iPad mini, but couldn‘t give up my ipad air 5. It‘s just a part of my daily life already after only 6 weeks. These iPads really are devices you don‘t know you need until you‘ve had one for some time. But I definitely need the 11“ screen for sheet music in jazz sessions and as a backup for my poor memory when it comes to lyrics for those cover gigs I play. If I had infinite funds I would get a mini as well for sure, it‘s the perfect device for all my reading and note taking. maybe when apple finally delivers a new version of the mini and I can get a good deal for a used mini 6…

[@QasimZafar]

@marctestarossa - I’m really glad the air is working out for you. Everyone has different use case scenarios and as you specified the 11in size is the way to go. For me the mini was the perfect downgrade from the 2018 iPad Pro and I’m really happy with it. I do wish they updated the iPad mini but who knows what Apple is up to. Thanks for watching I really appreciate it 🙏🏽.

[@marctestarossa]

@@QasimZafar the pricing also is a huge issue. the ipad mini 6 at least at this point in time is just overpriced. in Germany the ipad mini 6 right now is 529 € while the ipad air 5 is 499 €. The ipad 10 right now is only 320 €.

[@Meritenn]

I’ve enjoyed watching.I have the iPad Air 2generation. It still working fine but it’s stuck on iOS 12. can’t update it. I think I’ll buy this iPad mini.

[@QasimZafar]

@Meritenn - Love this iPad and it’s an easy recommendation for me to make. I’m glad you enjoyed the video and appreciate you watching 🙏🏽.

[@wkm610]

A lot of what you say resonates with me. I have a MacBook Pro 16" as a "desktop" and tried the 12.9" iPad Pro when it came out to see if it could be a "laptop substitute". Like you, I found that the limitations of iPad OS didn't really allow for this (although iPd OS IS slowly improving). The 12.9" iPad very quickly proved "too heavy to handle" and I switched down to an iPad Pro 11". I use this more, but still find myself thinking about downsizing to the Mini for the reasons you enumerate. It would also eliminate my need for my 10-year old Kindle which has done me proud and is (slightly) more portable than the iPad mini! Only thing is it acts solely as an eReader whereas the iPad mini obviously offers more. What keeps me waiting is whether Apple update the iPad Min in 2023, as it's about time they did. I'd like to see narrower bezels and maybe a faster processor, with 128GB memory as a starter point (although 256GB is enough. for my needs). Well done!

[@9852323]

It’s only a year and a half old just get it dude.. Even if they come out with a new one it’s not gonna be much different and the processing power is already superb with the a15 chip same as iPhone 14.

[@QasimZafar]

@William Martin - I would recommend go for it and get one now, the spec bump is not going to be huge and I don’t see them adding any additional pro features anyway. I’d say to wait but I haven’t heard any rumors to reinforce waiting but honestly who knows. I’ve always had my iPads for years and I don’t see that changing even if they come out with a new mini.

[@mattmajcher3823]

@@QasimZafar i don't know if i agree entirely with this, I am currently using iPad Pro 9.7 (2017 model with A12) and MacBook pro 16 (2019 model with i7). The iPad is very slow with some tasks, like long apple notes or Freeform, so I wanted to upgrade it and iPad Mini seemed like the best one of them all. My MacBook, although perfectly fine, I was not able to use some of the new AI apps. So whilst the iPad Mini 6 seems decent for now, it probably has about solid 2 years more before it will really lag behind, whilst iPad Mini 7 that hopefully should be released this September would most likely have solid 5 year lifespan. In UK they also want £570 for iPad Mini which is kinda of a joke.

[@QasimZafar]

@Matt Majcher - I used a very old iPad Pro 11 inch for years without issue, I kept it 6 years and up until the end it could still do video edits just fine. I really don’t see the processor bump being huge but if you think it’s better to wait definitely do that.

[@gary-fp8rw]

Do you have any thoughts about the new mini 7? When it comes out, I think I’ll trade my iPad Pro in for it. Thank you for your video.

[@QasimZafar]

@gary-fp8rw - I’ve seen a few rumors but not many details other than a processor and camera bump. If you have the iPad Pro then you could hang on and see if we get an update at apples next event. Thanks for the feedback, I’m glad you enjoyed the video.

Maybe I missed it in your video but did you go with 64gb or 256? I wish there was a 128gb version as 64 seems to small and 256 more than necessary.

@R M - I have the 64gb, It’s enough since I have iCloud but I do agree with you. The options should’ve been 128/256.

[@jmo7938]

Just bought one to replace my iPad Pro. Agree completely this is the perfect iPad size with all the necessary capabilities for the average user. I originally thought the M1 iPad Pro could be both my every day notetaking tablet and computer when needed… iPadOS isn’t quite there, so I’ll continue using a computer for computer stuff and this iPad mini for my every day in between device. BTW, also recently went with an iPhone mini 13 loving it so far, paired with Apple Watch Ultra. It works very very well for me.

[@QasimZafar]

@JMO - That’s awesome! That’s actually my current setup too, ultra, iPad mini and 13 mini go with me everyday and they’re all perfect for my needs. If iPad OS gives us more freedom then I would be more than happy to get a pro iPad. Thanks for watching I really appreciate it 🙏🏽.

Mini 6 will available under 40000(Indian rupees). So should I grab the offer?

It's an overall great review... unless you're a long-form writer (novelist, screenwriter, translator, scholar, blogger, brief-writing lawyer, etc.). In that case you missed out completely and it's a shame. I would have to we-transfer you an example (screen capture) of how the iPad Mini is the one and only instant-on, work anywhere / any time / in any position HANDHELD DEVICE that is FANTASTICALLY productive. It's not just you, Qasim... every last blessed reviewer of the iPad Mini is unaware of what a productive beast it is for writers. They gladly make mention of the pen for doodlers, note-takers, PDF annotators, artists... and that's fine. But they are asleep at the wheel for the long form writers. There's a reason for that and it's a "perfect storm" of sorts. It has to do with getting rid of the need to select and have keen eye command pudgy finger to move mini-handles over tiny text. The world of handhelds was "whammied" by an editing technique that had been invented for big fat computers (with shift-arrow keys, function keys, mice, trackpads, and rubber nibs). Flatscreen-different. Way different. There is an app in the iOS sphere that has figured it out and made editing so fast and silky smooth as to actually be faster than what's normal on a sit-on-your-butt computer chained to a chair and table. When will a reviewer inform the long form writers! Grumble grumble grumble In any case, Forza Napoli!

how much storage did you buy? Here in EU it's a €200 bump to go from 64Gb to 256Gb. There is no 128Gb ..

@@QasimZafar well it’s definitely pretty laggy at this point. Even typing too fast can trip it up.. but when it comes to video streaming, it’s still pretty great.

I have a Pro 12.9, Pro 11 and Mini 6 (all cellular for both cellular data and GPS), and I will always choose the Pro 11 or Pro 12.9 for most cases. I got and prefer the Mini 6 for when I moving around during the day a lot and carrying a very small sling, or perhaps I am backpacking or dayhiking and just want to have the iPad for reading books (and want lower power usage). And it works great in those cases - I have both a Zugu case and an Arteck keyboard case for the Mini 6, depending on whether I want to have a keyboard with me. For me the Mini 6 is great for certain use cases, but not for others.
