Fantastic app selection
The iPad Mini 2 has a sharp Retina screen
An ultraportable design
Great battery life and it's the most affordable tablet with access to the iOS App Store. Upgradeable to iOS 10 later this year.
Apple has stuck with the same design as last year’s iPad mini
Which in itself is a departure from the tapered look of previous iPads – and it’s still as impressive as when it was first revealed. It’s a slimline and lightweight slate that feels solid in the hand thanks to the premium build quality
And it weighs hardly anything. It's the more portable flavour of iPad
And works just as well out a

Higher price
Iterative evolution
Expensive
Android and Amazon tablets and even Windows laptops are available for less. Base model includes only 16GB of nonexpandable storage. It's missing the Touch ID fingerprint sensor and splitscreen feature found on newer iPads
Tablets are not exactly known for their brilliant sound quality
And the new iPad mini is no exception either. The stereo speakers included on the mini will certainly make do for occasional listening
But they’re not as loud as the pair found on the iPad Air
And they’re also positioned awkwardly. When using the mini
It’s easy to cover up the speakers when held on its side such as when you’re pl
Expensive for a small tablet
Lacks Touch ID
No expandable memory
Want a bigger screen for films
Can be a bit buggy

No Touch ID
Nonexpandable memory
Speaker location
Proprietary Lightning port
Not 802.11ac
No microSD
Very expensive compared to 7/8in tablets
No expandable storage
Marginally inferior colours compared to Air's screen
Slightly heavier & more expensive than original iPad mini
IPad mini 3 offers Touch ID (but not much else)
More expensive than the competition
Lack of Touch ID
A more expensive choice in the current tablet market

Abstract: Apple rather quietly started selling the Retina version of the iPad Mini last night . Here's my early thoughts.As with all hands-on, this isn't intended to be a full review; merely some thoughts after a couple of hours of test time with the new tablet.It'...
Excellent battery life, Retina screen a big upgrade, Fast, snappy performance
More expensive than predecessor, Screen can't match iPad Air
While its screen can't reproduce colours with the same punch as Apple's larger iPad Air, the high resolution display and excellent performance make the iPad mini with Retina display a hugely enticing option for any tablet buyer...

Abstract: At last Apple has launched the iPad mini. But it is possible for a question to a rise ask ing whether this 7.9 inch tablet is up to the levels. Although the most recent tablets like the Nexus 7 have a 7 inch display the lovers of Apple will be eager to he...
Excellent Build Quality and Premium Finish, Lot of tablet specific applications, Top notch performance, Excellent battery life
On the expensive side, Lack of expandable storage, Camera lacks flash and isn't great for lowlight performance, iOS 7 feels boring and same throughout,
Overall, the iPad Mini with Retina display is a great upgrade over the original iPad Mini. The iPad Mini with Retina display comes with one of the best processors from Apple – A7 and combines it with M7 co-processor. On the performance front, it is def...
Abstract: Apple has been continuously delivering quality products for the users and last year Apple released iPad mini which excited users by delivering a fulllycapable tablet in a miniature shell. The iPad mini tablet competes with almost all the same scale tablet...

Slightly Expensive
If money is no bar, then the iPad mini with Retina Display is unquestionably the best compact tablet in the market. It offers the best design on the market, the best battery life, one of the best displays, the best tablet app ecosystem and perhaps the fas...

Abstract: Listen, I don't have the greatest history when it comes to tablet relationships. We have… a checkered past . I was pitched on this fabled third device long ago, but I can't help but feel that we've all been hoodwinked. I've found myself maximally producti...
Ever since we saw the original Apple iPad mini, we've been hoping for a Retina screen for this wonderful compact tablet. Now that it has it, it's everything we expected it to be. A high-quality screen with immaculate sharpness makes a world of difference...

Last year's iPad mini was a near-perfect device save for one flaw-that muddy display-that made it nearly unusable. This year's has not only fixed that, it's paired the result with iOS 7, an operating system that is, regardless of whatever else you might t
I haven't mentioned the price yet because things should stand on their own merit, everyone's got different budgets, etc. etc. Allow me to mention it now. I do not like the price. I find the price unnerving. The price is very much more than a price I would
The only reasons not to buy an iPad mini-assuming youd like to buy a tablet in the first place-are matters of personal preference and bankroll. Can you afford to spend $500 (lets be honest, 16GB isnt gonna cut it these days, and the 32GB model is a $10...
