My iPad mini with retina display has blue edges?!

Similar to what I heard about the new Kindle HDX 7 to my dismay, my iPad mini with retina display that I drove an hour to pickup at the closest Apple store  has an extremely noticeable blue tint on the top of the screen. Also ever so slightly on the right hand side. Anyone else have this? Am I being too picky? Will the apple store replace this? I paid Apple's premium price so I feel it should be perfect.

Yeah it's definitely not normal. I was thinking I'm not waiting 5 days for a replacement so I drove an hour back to the Apple store and got a replacement. The Apple employee was very helpful and could clearly see the blue hue. I ended up switching to a white model to change it up, and because they had zero 32gb black models. I love the white it makes it feel totally newer versus my old black non retina mini. So moral of the story, don't settle for blue backlight bleeding. This new one has NONE and I'm 100% satisfied!!

  • My Ipad Mini with retina display has crashed and will not restart.

    My Ipad Mini with retina display has crashed and will not restart.Only the white screen with the apple logo will appear. This comes and goes randomly. I've tried resetting by holding the front and top buttons. I've also tried resetting using itunes. Neither had any effect, The Ipad was a christmas present and only worked for several hours, the apple store can not look at it for another week. Is this a common occurance? I thought apple products were expensive because they never had problems.

    Call Apple and explain as it is new. They will go over things to try and fix over the iPad over the phone. If they need to fix it they should send you a new one and you put the old one in thePrepaid return box they send you and send back the defective iPad for no cost. This is what they did with my first iPad 1st gen. I had. Unless they changed their policy you will get the box within a day or two and have your replacement for it the same day.
    I hope how they helped me is the same for you.  Good luck.

  • Ipad mini with retina display has really slow and laggy streaming but very high download speed

    I just got my ipad mini with retina display yesterday. The regular internet works fine as far as I can tell. I tried streaming video from watch espn, netflix, and youtube, and all three apps were so slow I couldn't watch anything. I have a high download speed too, it is 15 Mbps. I tried turning off the QOS engine in my router, and my download speed was up to 30 Mbps, and I still had the same terrible streaming quality. I tried changing the DNS as well, and this did nothing. I tried doing all the restarting and other "quick fixes," and nothing seems to work. Can anybody help me?

    I requested your post be moved to the iPad forum. This is the Mac Mini desktop forum

  • Why my ipad mini with retina display has short life battery?

                            My iPad mini with retina has problem with battery. I use it for 4 months. Now, it faces a lot of problem. Especially, battery has the most problem. When I just bought it, battery was good. I played games for 20 minutes, the percentage is still 100%. But now, when I played games for 20 minutes, the percentage was 90%. The percentage cut down very much. I tried to turn off wifi, reduce the brightness, turn on airplane mode, but it still the same.

    We'll the battery has its number of cycles, as time goes the battery will be used up and will need replacement. Try to close all apps running on your backround cause it will also use the battery life. Games with high end graphics will use more battery life due to more data processing involved.

  • Ipad mini with retina display screen defect?

    Thanks for any helpful information and answers, it is greatly appreciated. My Ipad mini with retina display has a large hairline crack starting from the top left hand of the screen that contiunes to bottom of the right hand of the screen, as shown in the picture. I did not drop my ipad or damage it in anyway. I would just like some opions if  this large hairline crack looks like a screen defect.

    Opinions here will not be of any help. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • Ipad mini with retina display and iOS 8.0.2 blue screen issues

    Hello
    My iPad mini with retina display with iOS8.0.3 is still showing up blue screen occasionally every day and restarting automatically. How to solve this?

    Hi!
    I am facing the same issue too. But how come you have 8.0.3 while the whole world is on 8.0.2 ?
    I tried resetting my iPad, restoring it, hard reset through DFU mode but NONE worked. It seemed to be okay for few days but then it started getting the blue screen restarts again.
    Monday is the day, hoping 8.1 will fix this issue. ELSE Apple should shut the f*** up and instead of releasing all new line of products and concentrate on the disastrous OS it is rolling out.
    Regards
    Yasser

  • My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data.

    My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • What is better for college? An iPad air or an iPad mini with retina display?

    I'm currently a junior in high school and I'll be graduating in the summer of 2015. My parents, well mostly dad, are planning on buying me the iPad air with 128 GB of memory. I got curious and went to look at the price and compare models and I saw that the iPad mini with retina display was the same as the iPad air, the only difference is the size. Since I saw that it was cheaper I was thinking on telling my parents to buy me that instead of the iPad air because it is more costy and my family isn't really the rich kind of people. I will be only using the iPad for school and nothing else since I have my iPod to play games on and stuff so it will only be used for purely educational purposes. Plus I've been hearing around that the iPad air is not that great and stuff because it has a bigger screen and such. Personally for me, I do not care about the screen size I just care about the price for my parents' sake because I don't like it when they have to spend a lot of money. So can you please help me decide on which to get and why it would be better than the other? Please and thank you.

  • Will the new iPad Mini with Retina Display fit into the older iPad Mini case?  (Will it be the same size?)

    I am planning to purchase the new iPad Mini with Retina Display when it comes out this month.  I am curious to know whether it will fit into the older iPad Mini cases that are currently available.  I wasn't sure whether I should go ahead and buy a case, or if I should wait due to a size difference.  Thanks!

    The 'old' case will cover the rear microphone, but the new and currently sold iPad mini smart case has the cutout for the rear microphone. It can clearly be seen on mini Smart Case photo.
    I had a black mini SmartCase on order at the time I posted the above.  Although my mini-retina won't arrive for a couple of weeks the case arrived today.  I has the cutout for the rear microphone just as shown in the images on the Apple Store.

  • Is an iPad mini with retina display the complete same size as an iPad mini without retina display?

    I'm trying to find a good sleeve for my new Ipad mini (with retina display), but keep coming across two options.
    1) Sleeve for iPad mini with retina display
    2) Sleeve for iPad mini
    Is there a difference in size? I'm mainly asking as I've found one I would like, but it doesn't mention the retina display..
    Hope someone out there has an answer to my question.
    Thanks,
    Kat

    There is a .3mm difference in depth.

  • IPad Mini or iPad Mini with Retina Display?

    Yea. I know the answer seems pretty obvious, "Dur, get an iPad Mini with Retina Display!". But I'm worried about the prices.
    Do you guys think it's worth it to buy an iPad Mini with RD for $100 more? Or should I just buy a regular iPad Mini? Is there a big difference between the two? If so, what is the difference between them?

    As already mentioned here the best way to make your decision is to look at both models. My sister is perfectly happy with her G1 mini, she has no experience with retinal models. My first iPad is the 3G iPad Retinal, my first look at the mini I could see the "screen door" effect of seeing the pixels. After using a retinal model for almost a year there was no way I could use the non-retinal mini for regular use. With that said if I compared my 1G iPod touch the mini has a very good display.
    Bottom line is, look at the quality of the displays to see if the added cost of the retinal display is worth it for you. Personally after shopping around I would still go with the full size iPad Air with retinal display simply because I prefer the larger retinal display.

  • IPad Mini with Retina Display

    I bought a new iPad Mini with Retina Display and the only charger that seems to work is the one it came with. Any other lightning chargers I have bought (including a 30 pin to 8 pin connector) won't charge. Not only is it annoying to have a 3ft cable to charge, but it's annoying to have only one cord.
    Does anyone know why the other chargers won't work?

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.
