i bought one for me ages ago this last bought for friend because i am so impressed with the item it does everything i want and and need it to do and so easy to use would recommend

Would suggest this to anyone looking for a cheaper and lightweight Apple tablet. Looks nice and smaller version of Ipad. I would highly suggest anyone take a look at this tablet for the price now. It has some minor flaws like the whole color gamut issue but it is ok.

I absolutely love this tablet, superb clear screen and not too heavy. Absolutely brilliant for reading PDF's Ebooks or Kindle books. Wifi is very good. The only downside is the crappy Itunes software which is simply pants.

When we first clutched last year's Apple iPad Mini , we were instantly sold. The compact and featherlight body was a dream compared with the 4th-generation iPad 's bulky, heavy build, making it friendly on our puny biceps.

Beautifully crisp and responsive screen; Impressive performance; Still comfortably slim and light

The Good - Superb build quality and design - Cutting-edge processor and graphics performance - iOS 7 a beautiful and powerful complement to hardware - Outstanding built-in and free iWork, iLife apps - Retina display most pixel dense iPad display yet The Bad - Relatively high up-front price -...

- Superb build quality and design - Cutting-edge processor and graphics performance - iOS 7 a beautiful and powerful complement to hardware - Outstanding built-in and free iWork; iLife apps - Retina display most pixel dense iPad display yet

- Relatively high up-front price - Slightly thicker and heavier than non-Retina model - Retina display outclassed by iPad Air Retina display - No Wi-Fi 802.11ac support

So, is it worth the extra £100? We think so.

Great design; IOS 6 is easy to use; screen size is good; long battery life; good camera

Screen isn't as good as Apple's Retina display; Expensive compared to rival Android tablets

This latest release from Apple addresses one of the biggest concerns of the original iPad Mini . By adding a Retina display to the device, you can now enjoy the true iPad experience in a portable, smaller format.

Beautiful retina display; Fast performance; Useful pre-installed apps; Solid design

Price; Mediocre camera

Apple has taken its landmark tablet and made it significantly better. There's no doubt this is the best small tablet on the market, and should budget not be a primary factor in a buying decision then it's the device to go for whether it's for screen quality, range of apps, battery life, physical...

In our review of Apple's original iPad mini last year, we remarked that its exceptional iOS app catalogue, outstanding build quality and super light...

Excellent battery life; Retina screen a big upgrade; Fast; snappy performance

More expensive than predecessor; Screen can't match iPad Air

Like a sized-down iPad Air, the Retina iPad Mini gives Apple an equally strong contender in compact tablets, marrying a terrific display with close-to-perfect aesthetics. Though pricey for the size, it's one of the best small tablets you can buy.

Compact; lightweight design; Brilliant; sharp display with high pixel density; Strong battery life

Display; like on previous-gen iPads; is glare-prone; Thin-sounding audio; Less-than-ideal speaker positioning
