iPad mini Do you still enjoy using your iPad mini 6?

Yes, I do. But having said that, I am also conscious of the fact that I did not really need the Mini. I don’t regret it though.
Yeah, I don't need my Mini6 or M1 12.9 but I sure like having them. I do still need my laptop ...
yes it’s great to take to work and to use on my break. A nice change up from my 12.9 which is a handful to use anything but on my lap.
I still love it and I think it's the best Apple purchase I've done for the past years.
Same. I don't really need it. I need my phone and laptop, but the mini is just a nice to have.
I wish the mini had FaceID and the OS scales better (widgets etc). Other than that I have no complaints.
FaceID… I constantly keep swiping up, only to realize after 5 times that I need to hold my finger on the power button 😂. Also: intent staring at the display to unlock it🤓
I've only had mine a week, but I'm very happy with it.
I've had a Mini 2 and a Mini 4. The size is perfect for me. Before getting the Mini 6, I checked out the new iPad Air, but found it to be too big. And the 6 has been blazing fast compared to my 4.

Since mine doubles as my cell phone (with buds + voip app), I use it like anyone else uses their iPhone AND as anyone uses a tablet too. Fannnnnnnnnnnnnnnntastic 2-in-1 device for my purposes. Fully scratches both itches.

Yes. I use it as a consumption web browsing device and it's just perfect for the purpose. Also very easy to take with me anywhere in any kind of bag compartment.
Keyboards, serious programs etc... I don't want to jump through hoops for all of that to work in my daily life. Better experience for me on a laptop.

I do but for my personal use case it was the wrong move. I do a bit more on my iPad than most people and should have got an 11 inch Pro (I use sidecar or whatever it's called now a lot when I travel and I do a lot of drawing in Procreate). If I don't have a laptop with me I also use it a lot for work.
If you're buying it as a media consumption device it's perfect.

I just recovered from COVID, and my iPad mini was such a great companion the last couple days. It was my phone, my bedside TV, etc. I love this little guy. Complete opposite of how I felt about my mini 3.
