    I would take an old iPad over most Android tablets any day of the week.

      Even the older A series chips outpace the latest android tablets in single core speed.

      Does it feel sluggish right now? I want to get a budget iPad but I don’t want it to be too slow since I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max

    Longevity? I've got audio tapes that still play on a recorder made in 1962.

    The fact that this iPad mini 5 is sluggish on the latest software is proof that Apple slows down their old devices on purpose.
    The A12 chip is still insanely powerful, and should be able to run iOS 17 without any issues whatsoever!
    And btw. iPads do not have the “function” where it slows down the CPU as the battery age. So that excuse does not hold here either.

    This makes me feel good about my mini 6. It's just been a year since I got it for work notes, and it's cranking along great!

    I currently am using an iPad mini 4 at my local church. I use my preferred Bible app for reading and use it to control my in ear mix while I play drums with the Behringer X32 app. That's all I really need it for. I do have a few games loaded but it's REALLY usable.

    I own a 11 inches M2 iPad Pro but my mini 5 si still my most used device. Especially for content consuming or to write a quick e-mail… I always comme back to it, it’s so light, the screen is very nice, it’s so easy to hold thanks to the bezels.

  • @Hedgehog-ji1bm

    I use that same device as my secondary iPad. I use it for listening to books, podcasts, FaceTime & stuff like that. I put a new battery in it for $26.

    I’m using this Mini, along with my iPhone 13 Mini.
    I’ve been waiting VERY impatiently for the next Generation, but it’s looking less and less likely that Apple will be releasing it any time soon.
    Having watched another creator suggest that we all go out and get a 6th Gen, instead of waiting for the 7th, I actually got as far as pricing them, and finding out how much I’d get for my 5th Gen. After saying that, I THINK I’ll be sticking with it ‘til the new ones finally come out.
    Thanks for the content.

    I miss the home button design of iPad, but I get why they have left that in the dust for the most part. Someday, I’ll get one of these iPad mini 5 for my collection!
    You also make a great point with hanging onto tech against the popular opinion.

    That is perfect for travel, reading, music etc. I have old and new and I split must run fast which is relative because of the user, and drawing, listening, reading,surfing. Older but still useful, like me.

  • @Mproud661

    I believe the large bezel is a improvement for entertainment since you can hold it without touching the screen. I have the iPad mini 5 cell and it’s great! I left it on iOS 16 which improved performance.

      I have an ancient iPod touch. Still love it, but the battery doesn’t hold a charge well. I still use it to take with me to listen to music when exercising. The last supported software is iOS 5.1!

    I use my iPad mini 5 as the main entertainment system in my car. I removed the factory system and built a custom one around the Mini. I started with the Mini 2 and then upgraded tothe 4 and now the 5. Unfortunately, because I built a custom bezel for my dash, the newer Mini's won't fit so I'm stuck with my 5 for the time being unless I want to make another custom bezel. It's also my travel companion when I fly Southwest. It's perfect for watching the live TV stream.

    Nicely timed update.I've never had the mini and with the mini 7 on the horizon I decided to buy the 5 just to see if I would like a mini iPad rather than splash out a fortune on a new one.I picked one up on ebay for £130 and it is in superb condition and despite having the latest iPad Pro this has hardly left my hands so I shall definitely be watching out for the 7!I'm also a hoarder,just can't let go,still got me iPad 2 even though it can barely run things,I use it for reading books.I have an 2012 macbook pro running sonoma thanks to those genius's at open core also an early 2013 running ventura-for some reason that keeps turning off at 49% even though battery shows normal at less than 500 cycles-I'll have fun trying to sort that out. I think iPad is the best tech invention ever,I've always got one with me.

    I use my iPad mini 6 for focused tasks and taking hand written notes. My iPad 12.9” pro is for general stuff, media, games, etc. I’ll probably keep the mini 6 until apple no longer will supportOS updates. And I am still rocking my iPhone 13 Pro.

    Mine still on 15.7.2 Version and it works very well and smooth. You most ready the policy. Which make you not updating your iOS after 5 years released. Follow my advice and you won’t face all these glitching. Peace)

    Still a very capable device, it’ll probably won’t receive the next major iPadOS update, which is quite sad for those looking for a budget iPad mini with updated software, since the Mini 6 was released much later and it’s still quite pricey, leaving room for a midrange android tablet.

  • @mattgois
    @mattgois 14 днів тому

    What's weird though is that the mini 5 was supposed to get back-to-back Siri requests as per foot notes in the iPadOS 17 page, but it never worked on it. On the other hand, it does support the just "Siri" wake word. Also, it does have interactive widgets (try Reminders for exemple).

    The Mini 5 is still a good tablet, it has the A12 chip, and still gets IPad OS 17, most likely its last. I bought a refurbished iPad Pro 11 from ‘18, which has the A12x. I’m loving the iPads from the early Eras. I even still have a Mini 4 😳 it’s really only good for streaming now. 😎👍

    sometime i havent use it and still on after 2 weeks standby battery (no use + connect wifi only)
    im still not sure want to upgrade it to 17 or not.
