My mum has had her iPad for about 6 years now I think (possibly longer) and it’s starting to show it’s age and is quite slow. I’m not sure what model it is, I think it’s just the iPad but yeah its old. Now I was considering getting her a new Air but if she found out I paid £569 she would go nuclear. I was thinking of then getting her an iPad mini which I didn’t even know existed until tonight but then I was thinking it’s only around £100 cheaper than the air and its possibly going to be too small?
She doesn’t need a pro, all she uses it for is to maybe take the odd picture of her dog and surf the internet, and occasionally play the odd game and send emails on it. So specs wise we are talking bare minimum here for her needs , but anything I buy even at the lowest spec will be lightyears ahead of her current model.
Do you think in the upcoming months there may be any deals on an iPad air or mini or will I have to pay what the prices are as of today. I was thinking maybe Black Friday there may be some offers on but I’ve never purchased apple tech on Black Friday so I don’t know. I know it’s only August but planning for Christmas right now as it’s an expensive product and want to make sure it’s something she would like.
She has a Samsung phone too and can use that as well but she is old fashioned and just uses it for ringing people , so she does like her iPad as it’s a lot bigger and she is more comfortable with it , so maybe a mini wouldn’t be too bad ? Any thoughts appreciated
