    Should you buy the iPad Mini 6? Is it worth upgrading to the iPad Mini 6? The iPad Mini 6 might be the MOST exciting iPad of the year, because it has been more than two and a half years since the iPad Mini 5. But does it actually live up to the hype?
    It’s a completely new iPad Mini, with a new design, much more powerful chip, a new display, and upgraded camera and audio systems. So let’s talk about what I liked, what I didn’t like, and see if the new iPad Mini is a good choice for you.
    I’ll get to this later in the video, but there was ONE PARTICULAR AREA where I COMPLETELY underestimated this device.

    What's up everyone?! I hope this review of the iPad Mini 6 was helpful. Did I cover what you wanted to know? What else did you want to see or learn about?
    Would love to know what you think. Is this a strobe that you would use and why or why not. If you’re currently using something else, please share your experience with me.  I am grateful in advance 🙏

Here are my choices: Option 1: Get an iPad Mini 6, retain my iPhone 11 or Option 2: Get an iPhone 13 mini, sell my iPhone 11 and get an iPad 9th gen. Do you think the iPhone 13 mini’s cinematic mode is a game changer to upgrade vs. retaining my iPhone 11 for photo /video purposes only? For the other usage cases (browsing, media consumption, email) will be using an iPad. Appreciate your inputs. Thanks

    I would like to give you a useful suggestion:
    I believe that many people interested in cheaper iPad (non Pros) reviews are more likely students. As a student, I would appreciate if you dedicate a minute or two talking about the Apple Pencil implementation, how many words you can write in one line without moving (this could give an impressive comparison between the mini and the Air in terms of dimensions) and in general how comfortable would be a long session writing experience.
    The complete review is useful obviously, but your reviews lacks the student point of view!

    I've been hesitant to get a new iPad, idk which one to choose yet between Mini, 9th, and Air 4 (the one I have is very old and many apps don't work on it anymore).
    However, since I work as a translator, I do have to take into account text editing, multi-tasking with more than 1 window, and the possibility of attaching a keyboard. Which sadly makes me cross-off the Mini.
    I wish I could just get the 9th gen, because it's cheaper. But the Air keeps taunting me with its laminated display, everyone talks about how distant the apple pencil is from the actual drawing on the 9th gen. While I'm not an artist, I would love to dabble with Procreate on my spare time (let's pretend I will have free time lol)

    • @metintin
      @metintin 3 роки тому +1

      @Eric, sounds like the Air will be a good fit for you. It’s only a bit more expensive than the iPad Mini, has a Goldilocks screen size for multi-tasking and can use the excellent, albeit pricey, magic keyboard which is a must have accessory imho. The 9th gen iPad while capable, cannot match the Air’s laminated, P3 wide color gamut screen or it’s processing power. If you plan on making heavy use of pro apps or storing multiple movies or games on there, spring for the 256GB version.

      @@TheHitsukia Yeah. I did some research and found out about the defect but that was only after I had already purchased the device unfortunately lol. Funnily enough the IPad Pro 2017 10.5 I bought was actually used and is a second hand device. I bought it off of Facebook marketplace place. Despite this Device being at least close to a year old(nearly 11 months the previous user had it for) it was in pristine condition. No scratches or dents whatsoever on the front or back of the device(a screen protector was always used with a case). So far I’ve had it for just a little over a week(about 8 or 9 days since I bought it) but I have’s noticed any bright spot or anything off about the display despite this devices allegedly being already a year old basically. Now it seems like the device could have been barely used by the previous owner(as I stated it looks in mint condition and even had 96% battery health) so the bright spots could 100% show up with time but as of now nothing.
      It sucks that you had to go through 2 replacements, quality control and testing should have prevented this from even being a problem in the first place. I want to ask when you did finally get the bright spots how noticeable were they? Did they drastically affect your enjoyment of the device or your ability to use it? I appreciate if you could answer honestly even if the truth would not be something I would want to hear lol. I might reevaluate my decision and might think about reselling while the resale value is still decent. Then save up for a 2018 iPad Pro.

    The mini is hype tech and it's absolutely useless unless you have a very specific need for it. It will end up being a very expensive paperweight for most people. It's too small for productivity, typing is strange, and just big enough to be awkward to carry around with you. Most of what it can do can be done on your phone with greater ease. So unless you have a specific need it's not worth the money.
