I am an apple employee, so I knew way ahead of time that these iPads would not be able to update to the latest software. For about 2 weeks, I debated on if I would order the mini 2, mini 3 or the mini 4. I was sold on the mini 4, but I also had to purchase 3 total, including screen protectors and cases. As you can imagine, that would get very pricey. These were gifts to my children. They are all under 6, so I was not willing to spend much money on something that had high chances of being damaged. That also would make it easy on my pockets to replace if I needed too, thus I settled on the mini 2 in good condition. I think it was $70 for each one. Now, I know I am rambling but please read this review in its entirety if you are on the fence about these. MAKE THE PURCHASE! I am not being paid for this review. These iPads arrived about a week early. I was not super impressed with the packaging. There was minimal support to ensure they did not get damaged. There was like a sheet of crushed brown paper, so I count my blessings that nothing happened in transport. So anyway, I open the boxes and these things look brand new like we set out to display in store. There was not a scratch in sig ...

Y’all I was a bit weary about buying a refurbished iPad. But I’m so glad I did. Even as the “Fair” option, it is almost immaculate. There are a few scratches on the back and a dent or so on the side but put a case on it and it’s perfect! The battery life is great and the screen is super responsive. You can’t even tell it’s not brand new!! I will most definitely be buying from Back Market again!!!!

I know this sounds weird, but I ordered an iPad mini 2 and received an iPad mini 4 This is an issue because I specifically ordered the older model to be able to play a group of games that are obsolete. The creators are not updating them any longer but they are my favorites. The newer models cannot download them. I had the perfect setup, until my purse was stolen last month, with the mini inside.

I ordered an "old-school" iPad mini to have on a backcountry trekking trip for extra photo capacity and to have a little watch-power on rainy nights in the tent, and it was perfect! I was worried about what the battery life would be like for an old, refurbished device, but it held up great. It was also in very nice physical condition, I'm a new BackMarket fan!

Ipad Mini 2
The new Apple IPad mini 2 manages to reduce the iPad Air to a more compact size, without sacrificing anything. Smaller than before, the Ipad Mini 2 is the perfect little tablet. The new iPad Mini has a 2,048x1,526 pixel Retina display, exactly the same resolution as the iPad Air and the same powerful 64-bit A7 processor. You could call the iPad Mini 2 with a Retina display the reduced version of the new iPad Air: it has most of the same specifications as its big brother. However, differences become evident if you look closely. The iPad Mini comes in two colors: silver and spatial gray, where the same metal color is used on the back as on the iPhone 5S and iPad Air.
The IPad 2 mini is ideal if you are a great reader, the improved screen resolution is the most appreciated change in this version. The iPad Mini 2 has the 64-bit A7 processor, the same as the iPhone 5S and iPad Air. Plus, an M7 coprocessor that helps monitor movement and allows the device to be used for physical activities or motion monitoring. The model also has a better front camera than the previous Mini, a better MIMO Wi-Fi antenna and better international LTE connectivity for LTE models, and an additional microphone in the back that automatically adjusts based on whether you are using the rear or front camera so that, for example, FaceTime calls are clearer.
If you are a gamer or a user focused on applications like video editing, you'll notice a giant breakthrough on the new : the change of processor from last year's A5 to A7 the new generation is a big jump. Applications that had delays before now run smoothly: multitasking and demanding tasks such as graphic representations, video editing, and others, also run flawlessly. Wi-Fi antennas were also upgraded via MIMO technology. MIMO promises better performance, and better range with dual antenna, which means that the Ipad Mini 2 is fundamentally faster anywhere you go.
If you are looking for a small tablet without limitations, that can run the best apps, that offers great productivity, and that is ideal for reading, the iPad Mini with Retina screen is undoubtedly the way to go. Storage configurations now include a 128GB model: but the , 16GB and 64GB are still an option. Wi-Fi-only configurations costs around $399, but a is also a suitable and cheaper option.
How to summarize it? The mini 2 iPad adds a screen with an excellent resolution that competes with the iPad Air, a better A7 processor and also improves Wi-Fi and LTE, along with battery life equal to or better than the previous year. Does this justify the need to upgrade from the previous iPad Mini? If you use heavy applications, no doubt, and note that the developers make the most of the new processors, in this case, the A7. So to ensure maximum functionality in the future, buying the iPad Mini with Retina only for the processor is a good idea.
