  • Here's why the iPad Mini is still the best iPad in 2023! I often get these questions: Is the iPad Mini 6 still worth it? Should I get the iPad Mini 6 in 2023? Or should I wait for the iPad Mini 7? The answer might surprise you! (or not 😉 ).

      I got mine in 2022, but taking long notes in this little thing using freeform and good notes causes lag, glitch when using apple pencil 2, faster battery drain, and the iPad mini heats up pretty fast to the point I need to let it rest for a while. So far that is the annoying issue, all other aspects are great

      Oddly i went the other way around, have a 2020 iPad Pro and bought the mini but after a few weeks struggling with the screen i sold it. Still got the pro but mostly use m2 MacBook Air as its lighter than my iPad Pro plus keyboard and more powerful, still cant be without my ipad though but not sure i will replace the iPad Pro 12.9 anytime soon apple will need to pull some features out the bag for me to upgrade the iPad

    I am thrilled with this review as I’ve been a iPad mini fan for the last few years. I was waiting for this new upgrade from the four because the six is so much faster. I take it with me everywhere and so happy that this review has brought exposure to this community. I recently acquired an iPad generation nine when my father passed away. It is so big and so bulky I just set it to the side. It does have a pencil with it and that one is not compatible with my six so I may be getting a pencil for my mini six. Time will tell anyway, thanks for the review Greatly appreciate it.

    I've always loved the mini over the other big iPads and was so relived when they announced an update version, I really thought apple was just going to discontinue it like so many other devices. I love to use it especially for media consumption, if I need to watch a video on RUclips or watch a movie or something I rarely reach for my MacBook anymore.

    Writing this from my iPad Mini 6! I use it more than my iPhone 14 Pro and M1 MacBook Air. I love it! Got it last year and was influenced by your videos. Worth every penny and with the sales going on now, people should definitely consider it. Curious to see what the iPad Mini 7 will be. Lastly, I would love to see your video of your use of the iPad Mini 6 on your travels!

    Mini is by far the best iPad. If you have only need a tablet and not a second computer it’s the one to go with.
    It’s perfect for note taking with the pencil, watching RUclips, and honestly, if you need a larger horizontal canvas for note taking, just turn it to the side and it’s as long as the iPad Air is wide.

    The mini will be my next iPad. My current iPad pro is still rocking but when it stops, I’m switching again. My first mini was the 2 and I loved the lightness & portability of it. I hope Apple keeps updating this little one. And after Windows10 stops (end 2025?) I’ll probably switch to a MacOS as well.

  • @seoulipsism
    @seoulipsism Год назад +5

    Your previous video about the Mini made me buy one yesterday. I have been looking to replace my iPad 4 for a LONG TIME now (I seriously think that Apple over engineered this iPad), but is is heavy and cumbersome to carry around and of course, no more software updates. I was looking at the Air and the Pro but I was put off by the screen size (especially while holding it above my face because I read like that LOL), while the screen real estate of previous Minis was just too small for me (or was it the bezels?). And I managed to score a 256GB version at $200 off the original price. I honestly don't care if Apple decides to update the Mini this year, but if they do decide to update it later this year with a 3nm A-series chip, then this will be going as a present to someone special. :)

  • @smartphonefan5226

    The iPad mini is my favorite iPad currently. Out of the entire lineup, the iPad mini is the best value alongside the iPad (9th generation). Even though the iPad Air and iPad Pro have more powerful specs, I can’t justify spending the extra money due to iPadOS. As for the next iPad mini, I think we may see a refresh in early 2024.

    Size and media consumption is the main reason I went from the 10” iPad Pro to the mini. Speakers aren’t as loud but are plenty good for watching movies. I would just like to see a higher refresh screen in the next refresh. At this point no premium device shouldn’t have one. Maybe a more robust storage selection. But other than that it’s got all I need. Plus it goes with me to work daily and still runs great.

    The Mini 6 on my nightstand is the first device I grab in the morning. I walk around with it in house doing my daily routine. The Mini 6 is so convenient and it's really the only iPad that's made to be used as just a Tablet. Everyother iPad on the current laptop has some sort Magic Keyboard/Keyboard Folio to become your Laptop-replacement. The Mini 6 with just the Apple Pencil 2nd gen is such a seamless compact tablet experience.
    Can't wait to see if we ever get a Mini 7th gen. All I want is pro motion. LCD is fine for me with the Mini's high ppi count, Mini LED like the 12.9 Pro could make costs too expensive for a "mini" ipad.

    I bought the first iPad Mini when it came out, and totally loved it. I’m now using the Mini 5 and it’s my everything machine and goes everywhere with me. The size is about the dimensions of a book, except thinner than most. So it’s the perfect size for me - I’ve never even considered the bigger iPad models. My only complaints are with iOS, not the Mini, and maybe someday Apple will get iOS as perfect as the Mini already is

Finally found your video and you convinced me right away.

Can you confirm this is the case on your iPad mini 6. I’ve taken this up with apple. They started a case, I sent them screen shots but they are not now replying. An engineer was supposed to get back to me some two weeks ago. Is it simply the case that the double tap function isn’t available on the iPad mini 6? Many thanks.

    I, for one, love my 12.9 iPad Pro… I do most things with it. BUT….. I also got the iPad mini 6… and the reason was purely for navigation purposes. I worked as an Amazon flex delivery driver and wanted to be able to use navigation and listen to music with RUclips. iPhone doesn’t allow multitasking… and my iPad Pro was just too large to mount anywhere in my car. I didn’t want to do anything drastic like cutting into my dash… so after 2 weeks I finally decided that getting the iPad mini was the way to go. Now it’s also the ipad i take with me to go grocery shopping and to restaurants. I love both of these devices and really wish I could turn my iPad mini 6 into a phone.

However, I wanted something a little more portable for when I’m on the go, or just want to relax in my recliner. So, when my daughter took me to visit an Apple Store in Virginia earlier this month, I couldn’t resist and came home with a purple Mini 6. I was pleasantly surprised at how versatile and powerful it is, and have absolutely no regrets in purchasing it. It’s a great little iPad!

    I haven’t picked up this latest iPad mini just because there isn’t a headphone jack and I enjoy listening to music on my mini through some nice wired earphones and have been wanting to avoid charging and worrying about battery time if I pick up a wireless set. I have had three minis over the last almost ten years that I use as my everyday carry and my phone. Although these days I can almost argue that a phone is useless and that I can keep up with everyone through many different options available on the iPad. I live in Tokyo and the mini has always been great on the train and fits nicely in my shoulder carry. The one thing I do like about the new mini is that it seems a little lighter than my current one and it will be just a matter of time before I pick one up… nice review, thanks!

    I'm about to upgrade my iPad Mini 3 from 2015 - not exactly ahead of the curve here! One of the real attractions for this UK old fart (nearly 60 - help!) is how perfect it is for that old-fashioned pastime of READING BOOKS, using Apple Books and the Kindle App. Reading for a prolonged period of time on an iPhone is a real strain on the eyes and I don't want to lug a 12" screen around - on a Mini it's just about perfect.
    I think it's upgrade time - oh, and I'll happily explain what a book is to anyone who isn't sure ;-)

    Great job as always Patrick. I’m still debating (when I replace my tired iPad Air) should I go with the Mini or get an M1 11” Pro. I had the iPad Mini 5 awhile back and miss the size/form factor. Ah well we’ll see what happens as I keep saving my $$$. Keep up the great work sir! Love the channel….

      @@PatrickRambles So I got it for a pretty good price now. Took some time getting used to having something more sized than my smartphone for media stuff. But it’s pretty good. I also got me a fitting sling bag to carry it around with me. Will use it with an apple pen to improve my drawing skills and learning to write and speak languages, to read eBooks and media consumption. Happy with the purchase. Although it misses some things I have on my iPhone. The search bar would be more handy to reach on the bottom and on the iPhone you can forward or backward streams with swipe gestures, on this iPad. I miss some stuff but oh well.

    I plan on getting the iPad mini to store my recipes, so I don’t have bulky books or papers that could get ruined, and I’ll use a stand so it’ll be at eye level when I do my prep work. I still plan on keeping my IPad Pro and MacBook Pro for other things, such as my research which requires lots of storage capacity, but the mini is perfect for holding my recipes.

    I absolutely love my mini. I use it in all my meetings. The biggest down side is typing on it. The keyboard on the mini takes up so much room in landscape mode, and the portrait mode is too small to type long paragraphs. I use it for handwritten notes, quick references, and portability. It is great to skip out of work and do half day Fridays without the boss knowing I am out of the office. 🤣😂

    I have several tablets, iPad Pro 11 (M1), Ipad 10.2 (2019), Lenovo Tab Y700, Huawei Matepad 10.4 and finally IPad Mini 6. Among them, the IPad Mini 6 with the paper-like screen is definitely the best for use case such as note taking and managing work related applications. Its portability outweighs everything else when you short on desk and bag space 😂.

  • @MaiElizabeth

    I will definitely get it or the next iteration of it. I’ve been using iPad Air to take quick note doing remand cases in police’s courtroom. It’s not comfortable at all to hold and type and read them all back in standing position for 1 to 2 hours. So, the small iPad Mini 6 should be much more comfortable to use that way.

    Thanks for this review! It was very relevant as i just picked up an iPad 10th generation, [still in the box unopened] for a birthday gift. I will be returning it today and exchanging it for the mini, as it will be a better fit for my wife. In addition I did not know that the apple pencil 2 worked with it. So it’s a win win, and when she is ready to move up to a larger tablet she will have the pencil to work with it. Have you ever considered using the mini as a homekit hub?

    • @PatrickRambles
      @PatrickRambles  Год назад

      I think she will love it. I'm not deep into homekit integration (still mostly a Google household) but I do use the mini for all my lights and stuff in the studio. When a new mini comes out, I will be keeping the 6 and designate it to be my studio hub. It's perfect for that.
