As a professional software developer, I've hated the arrogant Apple culture since 1981, when I bought my first computer. For phones and tablets, I've been a faithful Android user. When I wanted to replace my semi-android Kindle Fire for reading Kindle books, I bought a similarly sized Samsung Galaxy tablet. That turned out to be a slow performing battery hog, nothing like the larger Samsung tablets I've had. The only choice left was the iPad Mini. So, I held my nose and bought one.
This turned out to be the best purchase I've made from Amazon in years. The screen is bright and clear, with vibrant colors. Performance is snappy in all the apps I've tried. Charging is super fast. In fact, the only thing slow about the tablet is consuming the battery charge.
Just as impressive is the variety and quality of available apps. There are drawing and painting apps for a few bucks with capabilities comparable to PC software costing hundreds.
I'm not going to run out and get an iPhone, since Samsung does a good job with phones. But my hat is off to Apple for this amazing tablet.

The best mini ipad since sliced bread!! It's awesome. WOW is all I can say. Highly recommend.
I spent 7 hours researching a good ipad. I wanted something to use in my hand, not to big or small. I am coming from the iPad mini 5th generation and WOW is this a huge step up. So many great things about it. Not one bad thing at all. I have 9 apple products and love them all. I'm well pleased. Apple does it again. I am glad that I got a good price for this. Apple and eBay sells this for $100 more so I bought it from Amazon. I am so glad that I did. It is super fast. Great feel, quality and awesome camera. The picture quality is unreal. It is very portable even with a case on it. The storage is great. I have 30GB free even after the new iOS install. This is a larger screen than the iPad 5th generation. No more home button, yay. I love the round square edges. I love the pencil 2 charging option. The new A15 bionic chip is awesome. So fast. The battery last 10 hours. Everything loads faster and better. My web pages load so much faster. The video content is awesome. I am very impressed. The 8.3" screen is larger than the 7.9" screens and you can tell the difference. I love the edge to edge viewing. The colors are so very real and vibrant. I highly recommend this. Must buy. I buy a new ipad Everytime they come out with the mini.
