I had my iPad mini gen 4 64GB repaired at Apple so I got a refurbished device.
When I started it I restored from my iPad Pro 256 GB backup, resulting in the Mini became full. I erased lots of apps and data etc, but still with 32GB free its extremely slow. Updates, reboots etc, still just to get the keyboard to switch from letters to numbers takes three seconds.
I will now restore it as new, even disabling iCloud backup seems to take 10 minutes.
I will report back here with my findings.
