Picked one up on Amazon for £130 128 GB. Perfect for streaming Netflix Disney iPlayer etc. photos and home vids reading news apps are a better experience than using my iPhone 13 pro because of the bigger screen. I cannot comment on games as I don’t play any. Definitely worth the money for me.
Thanks for the comment :-) Exactly. I use it to watch shows on Prime Video nearly everyday and it has no issues. If you need something to do simple tasks like that then it is a no-brainer!
Thanks for the comment :-) I have used this iPad for Google meets and Facebook Messenger calls quite a bit, and while it does work, it can be a bit choppy sometimes. For a smoother experience on a budget, I would go for something like the iPad 9th Gen. If you really want to keep the mini form factor, the iPad Mini 5 has a lot more performance than the Mini 4.
The video i needed, thank you so much for this i found one used in good condition for about 80-90$ and im planning to just use it for reading and browsing socials when i travel because i need something smaller than the current 9.7 inch ipad i own and this seems like a good device for what i need, by the way how is the battery performance on it i usually carry a power bank around with me but just to know how long does it last with normal usage for you?
Thank you for the comment :-) I find it is great for anything that is not demanding. Reading books or PDFs is fine, and I often watch episodes or movies on it when traveling. The battery life is obviously not as good as when it was new, or as a newer iPad, but it will still do around 4 hours or so. If you can get one in good condition for a good price, then it sounds like it would meet your needs :-)
Thanks for the interesting video. For daily tasks I have started more using iPads over using my other Apple notebooks/desktops or Lenovo Windows notebooks. So last week and more out of curiosity I bought an “old” iPad Air 2 128 GB Wi-Fi/Cellular (which is basically the same as this iPad mini 4) in immaculate condition for just 79€. It came (with 1 year dealer warranty included) from one of these online refurbishment shops. Very pleased with it, even the battery of this thing is lasting me almost 6 hours including some video editing in iMovie and LumaFusion (4.0). Excellent purchase.😎 As an owner of an 11 inch iPad Pro M1 and a previously bought iPad Pro 9.7 which I still love and use because of the Apple Pencil, I was surprised to find out how capable and these older iPads are especially if you pick one up cheap. Your video made me want to buy a small iPad mini again as a travel companion, but I am no way prepared to lash out the money Apple is asking for the iPad mini 6. I will preferably go for the 128 GB/Wi-Fi-Cellular version, although this version is currently still selling for around 150€/180€ here on the Continent. My iPad mini version 1 (64 GB/Wi-Fi/Cellular) which I bought new at the time is getting a bit outdated now with iOS 9.3.6 it will not run Apple‘s Pages, Numbers, Keynote or Apple Notes in their later versions with their newer functions I require. Both the iPad mini 4 and the iPad Air 2 do as they are still supported by iPadOS 15 which is sufficient for my needs.
@@Cairol58 Thank you for the comment, and for the information. The only real downside of this particular iPad is that is doesn’t support Apple Pencil. This fact alone makes the Mini 5 a significant improvement, but they also seem to cost quite a bit more. I’m glad you liked the video :-)
@@IrensTech True, the missing Apple Pencil support is annoying but not the end of the world 😀. But I am not prepared to pay from 450€ or more for a 2019 iPad mini 5 256 GB (64 GB not enough for me) with WiFi/Cellular…
@@Cairol58 I opted for the Mini 4 knowing full well it didn’t support the Pencil. I mostly wanted a PDF and book viewer, and something to watch videos on. For that, it has been more than enough.
Just bought 2 of these for my kids to play games on, my kids are 5 and 3 so won’t be crazy games, just kids games, along with watching UA-cam, will this do the job?
Thanks for the comment :-) It should handle that kind of thing just fine. If the games are in any way graphically intensive you may get a bit of choppiness, but they should run. I watch UA-cam on mine all the time so no worries on that front. Cheers
I plan to use mine until it dies :-) It should do simple tasks like Books and UA-cam for a good while yet. Browsing might get tricky depending on Safari updates. It seems alright for now, and can always use a third party browser like Firefox.
Thank you for the comment :-) The battery life will generally last between two and three hours when doing something like a Skype / Zoom / Meets call. I would imagine a livestream situation would draw a similar amount from the battery. The Mini 4 is rather old now, and the battery has probably degraded quite a bit compared to when it was new. I usually use my M1 MacBook for this kind of thing, as the battery life is significantly better.
For games, I would suggest looking at something a little newer. The Mini 4 will run simple games, but it will get very stuttery with anything slightly demanding.
Thanks for the comment :-) The screen on the mini 4 is noticeably better. They have the same resolution and ppi, but the 4 has an anti reflective coating, the colours are much more accurate. The 2 looks quite washed out in comparison.
Thank you so much, I have an iPad mini 2 and just by looking at it for 5 minutes causes my nausea and headaches which never happened with any of the other apple devices I own that's why I wondering if the screen on the mini 4 is better. Have you noticed any of these symptoms when using it?
@@chaoticMadnessx I’ve not experienced anything like that with iPads. Some people have trouble in moving vehicles. I would probably suggest a mini5 at this point, as it is a big improvement over the previous models in all areas.
Thanks for the comment :-) If you absolutely cannot stretch to a Mini 5, then the 4 will work. It takes a bit longer to load things, and can be a little glitchy with Netflix, but it works.
Thanks for the comment. It would be ok for very simple or not very demanding games. The Mini 4 is getting on a bit now and will struggle with anything beyond watching media or simple document work.
I think that’s about right. It is less than I paid for it. Remember that this iPad is getting on a bit now, and will be good for watching content and simple web browsing. Not much else.
I downloaded and played through the tutorial, and then one battle. It seems to run ok, gets a little stuttery during lots of action, but nothing too bad.
Thanks for the comment and the info. :-) I have read a lot of information that states rootless is more useful / better than root (rootful), although I admit I know little about it and none of my devices are jailbroken.

Great job dude! Thanks)

Would your recommend this for zoom meetings? If not, Which Ipad would you recommend (on a budget) Thank you !

One question: is the iPad mini 4 suitable for watching UA-cam or is that too demanding?
Thanks again
Thank you for the comment :-)
Yes. I regularly use it to watch UA-cam.
Thank you @@IrensTech - Just ordered a refurbished mini4. 🙂
@erikneek I hope it works out well for you :-)
how many hours it last when doing a liveatream?

would you recommend buying this iPad to a kid who likes to play games? will it crash and take a lot of time to load things?
For games, I would suggest looking at something a little newer. The Mini 4 will run simple games, but it will get very stuttery with anything slightly demanding.
Hello can i ask? As a college student, is it good for note taking this ipad mini 4? Bcoz' im planning to buyy ittt
Thanks for the comment :-)
For note taking I would suggest a Mini 5 or 6, as they are compatible with the Apple Pencil.
real question is where did you get such a beautiful wallpaper?
Edit: i think i found it
It’s the MacOS Monterey wallpaper :-)
Se puede usar el Apple Pencil ?
Sadly not. :-( The Apple Pencil is supported by the iPad Mini 5 or later.
Does the screen has any difference from iPad mini 2 in terms of color, sharpness etc?
Thanks for the comment :-)
The screen on the mini 4 is noticeably better. They have the same resolution and ppi, but the 4 has an anti reflective coating, the colours are much more accurate. The 2 looks quite washed out in comparison.

Is it still worthy to buy in 2024?
For watching Netflix, Facebook, UA-cam
Thanks for the comment :-)
If you absolutely cannot stretch to a Mini 5, then the 4 will work. It takes a bit longer to load things, and can be a little glitchy with Netflix, but it works.
Спасибо за видео, iOS 16 поддерживает!?
Thanks for the comment :-)
The Mini 4 does not support OS 16 unfortunately.
Is it good for downloading games?
Thanks for the comment.
It would be ok for very simple or not very demanding games. The Mini 4 is getting on a bit now and will struggle with anything beyond watching media or simple document work.
Is it still usable for Netflix?
It might be a little slow to load up, but it still runs ok.
6000 rs is wort it in 2024 for this please reply
I think that’s about right. It is less than I paid for it. Remember that this iPad is getting on a bit now, and will be good for watching content and simple web browsing. Not much else.
hi sir , could u please give it a try playing MLBB game on this mini 4?
I’ll give it a shot and get back to you with what I think.
I downloaded and played through the tutorial, and then one battle. It seems to run ok, gets a little stuttery during lots of action, but nothing too bad.
@@IrensTech very nice of you thank u sir
No worries :-)@@uwauumasarap887
How long does your ipad mini last these days?
I used it to watch UA-cam/check emails for a couple of hours yesterday evening, and it had about 30% left.
Please create account in social network VERO ?
Thanks for the comment. I’ll have a look into it, although I’m currently focusing my attention on UA-cam.
Stiil can support youtube and netflix?
Thanks for the comment :-)
Yes. I use mine for UA-cam and Amazon Prime Video, so I imagine Netflix wouldn’t be an issue.
Tq
@@IrensTechis it usable or does it suffer doing UA-cam like stuff?
@@tonydetwiler2624 It handles UA-cam videos up to 1080p without any issue.
I have one playing on it as I’m typing this.
As long as you get a rootful jailbreak it can be smooth.
Thanks for the comment and the info. :-)
I have read a lot of information that states rootless is more useful / better than root (rootful), although I admit I know little about it and none of my devices are jailbroken.
This is my dream ipad hoping i can buy one soon 😢😢 or hoping someone will give me❤
Thanks for the comment :-)
I use mine daily due to the form factor. Hopefully you can find one for a good price.
@Im_smart127 this is a good point.
Kid no one is just going to give you one free
Bruh nobody will give you one. Just save up for it like im doing, dont be greedy.
Can I give you iPad 6 mini or you prefer 4
