iPad mini 6 - still the best!

Though I'm in the process of reincorporating the iPad Pro 12.9" M2 into my personal workflow, I'm still convinced the iPad mini 6th gen and the upcoming 2024 iPad mini 7th generation is/are the best model(s) available! In this video I outline all the reasons why mini really is mighty :)

I had my 64 GB, and noticed it was slow, and kept running out of space. I like to edit some photos on Lightroom, so I upgraded to the 256GB, and man was that a game changer. Great content Noah. 🤙🏼

Watching and writing this comment from my iPad mini 6 😊

I picked one up about this time last year. I went from a 12.9 inch iPad to the mini 6 and I am so glad I did. The size is perfect. Not so big where it’s too cumbersome to lay in bed and watch videos and or read. The mini 6 is perfect for what I use it for!

I got an iPad mini as an early Christmas present. I absolutely love this little thing 😊

[latinballa]

Literally sold my m2 iPad Pro and got this. Zero regrets and I can’t believe how much I love this thing.

iPad mini 7 requests:

Higher refresh rate, higher brightness, and more storage. That’s it.

iPad mini is/was my very favorite. Never too big, never too small. 
It's just the right size for all of my uses.
I got my iPad mini with Retina display (iPad mini 2) when the free Swift Language Guide was released but the iPhone 4s that I inherited from my wife was too small to read it well. I bought my iPad mini with the maximum storage, 256 GB, because I intended to use it as my media device, for all my ebooks and digital magazines.
It was my perfect take-it-anywhere device.
But then last year the home button broke so now I'm looking at the iPad mini 6 because it now seems like a necessary upgrade. I can't wait to see what they offer in the iPad mini 7.

iPad Mini + Cellular is such a game changer. It’s like a having a portable workstation + leisure device all in one (It also puts less strain on my iPhone’s battery since I don’t need to do a hotspot all the time). Totally worth it!

I just got the iPad mini 6 (256GB, Wi-Fi) in Starlight - love it! 👍🏼 I love the small and compact form factor. And with the A15 chip it will still be powerful for a few more years.

I use my iPad mini 6 to plan my day, watch movies and play mobile games which I still love it for the size lightweight and affordable

[davidmcivor]

Phone & tablet size has disproportionately risen lately when they were always originally intended to be small, the iPhone mini 13 & the iPad mini 6 are the perfect combination of fully functioning lightweight powerful products in a compact portable format, expensive yes but totally unique & niche. I always buy the cellular version of ipads, yes it increases the initial purchase price but the convenience of cellular especially when travelling is worth it, so easy to pop in a prepaid data sim or activating the esim for connectivity is a bonus I don’t understand why some people limit themselves to just wifi.

I wish it came with 128gb minimum, OLED 90hz display. Other than that it’s perfect

The iPad mini also proves how little most people need to update their tech. Tablets/phones that are a few years old are just fine.

[andreagreen]

it’s the portability for me. I have the iPad Pro with the Magic Keyboard and it’s great but HEAVY. the mini, as you said it best is a sidekick. I wish it had display zoom but still an iPad. you can hold in one hand is really neat

[janeS]

It is a wonderful iPad. I love it so much. Thanks for a great video!!

I’ve been using a 12.9” Pro for work since 2019. But when I’m at home, I also use it for consuming media and it’s quite unwieldy carrying it around the house. So a mini would probably be perfect. But I’m afraid I might miss ProMotion 😅

[hangwithfi]

I use my iPad mini everyday for work! I love it!

[CalmlySith]

WOW What a Great timing! I was thinking about to get one. Although I know for sure the 7th will be released in 2024, Because the 6th stock is currently running out everywhere, many retailers have put it as discontinued.

So I do agree, the discount now can be a really good purchase. I will get one, cuz I want to use it now for note taking. laptop won’t cut it for me…

Torn between Mini and 11”. The 11” is also pretty compact and portable. I use it as my travel computer, importing and editing photos from my Sony Alpha. Been a great little computer.

[DavidWilson-loqn]

Had the mini 6 then upgraded to the M1 Pro after two weeks. So glad I did, mini beautiful but too small. In my opinion the 11inch iPad is the perfect size.
