Why should I buy an ipad mini?

Hi,
For my birthday I asked my parents for an ipad mini. They said I needed to give them a few reasons why I should get one despite having an ipod touch 4 gen.But I'm not sure why I want one.
Any reasons why would be great:)
Thanks in Advance!

With the new ipad coming out soon, why should I buy the ipad 2?

with the new ipad coming out soon, why should I buy the ipad 2?

I can only echo what Pogo says about buying based on what it does today.
3 weeks ago I bought a Mac Mini. A new Mac Mini model has been rumoured to come out anywhere between the same week I made my purchase and the end of August. None's been released as yet.
I wanted one in the week of June that I bought mine so I bought it based on the fact that it did what I wanted and I couldn't imagine anything which could be added that I'd want - my MacBook Pro doesn't have Thunderbolt so the most likely addition isn't really going to be much use for me.
Basically you have to buy what you what based on what's out at the the time.
I can promise that within seconds of the iPad3 being released, the web will be full of rumours about the next one!

Should I buy the iPad Mini?

Hello, II have an 4g iPod touch and am very used to the retina display. Should I still buy the iPad Mini, or I like the display is not it? Thanks

"I like the display is not it?"
Huh?

Which should I buy, the iPad mini with retina display or the iPad Air?

I Was thinking of buying an iPad but I'm not to sure which one to buy. They both have good reviews and they both look good but from anybody else's point of view which one would be better to buy?
help?
thankyou.

Depends upon what you will be using it for. If you expect to be doing a lot of on-screen typing then the larger iPad with the larger screen/keyboard may be better, if one of the main uses will be as an ebook reader then the smaller-lighter Mini might be better. I don't know what country that you are in but in the US the Mini is $100 cheaper, which could be used for a cases, apps, music etc
Do you have a local store that has both in so that you can try both ?

Why is it that my ipad mini doesnt charge up to 100% it stop at 91%?

I Recently bought my ipad mini & I noticed that it always stop charging at 91%, i had to unplug & plug it again to continue charging? Need any help on this please....

im having the same problem with you. I bought my ipad mini last month as soon as i open it my son use it a bit and then when its time to charge it wont charge to 100% stops at between 85-90%, i have to unplug then plug the adapter to charge it to full its very annoying, my friend bought one yesterday and guess what LOL same charging issues, my sister's friend bought 2 yesterday and guess what same charging issue. My friend bought the 12w charger and it works from 1-100% no issues. The question is why should we buy 12w charger when our charger is still under warranty apple please RECALL all these 5w CHARGER, you know that there is something wrong with your 5w charger but why ship it, it will cause you double now to recall everything. As you can see 70% of the time all IPAD MINI charger dont have enough JUICe to charge from 1-100% without recycling the AC power. If you just bought your ipad mini say like 1 day ago and experience this issue go and take back your ipad mini and better yet tell them replace the adaptor with a 12w one.

Shall I buy the iPad mini 2?

So essentially, I wanted a smaller portable iPad that I could pop in my bag and carry it wherever I want. At home, I have the larger macbook pro so if it's movies I want to watch, i normally just tend to watch them on there. This iPad would be for university and even though, I have the macbook, I could watch the occasional movie or two on something smaller.
This is why I wanted the iPad mini 2 and since I wanted it in black and that I wasn't overly impressed with the touch ID that I have on my phone, I'm bypassing the iPad 3. I'd much more prefer to spend the money I'm saving from choosing the mini 2 than the 3 on an extended warranty.
My problem is, since the iPad 2 was released this time last year in 2013, will it be discontinued any time soon? The iPad mini 3 was released in October a few months ago, it was disappointingly bad. Considering the rumours of the mini series being discontinued, is it still wise to buy the iPad mini 2? Will it still receive the software support, in allowing it to use future ios system. I really do love the small size of it but if there's a big chance it'll be discontinued, I'm not sure if im better suited to buying an air 2 even though id hate the size.
I'd appreciate any help on the matter.

No one can predict what Apple will do. If you need/want the iPad at this point in time, purchase it and use it.
If you don't need nor require the Touch ID (fingerprint scanner) that the iPad mini 3 has over the iPad mini 2, you can save yourself $100 and go with the mini 2. As you probably know, the mini 2 and the mini 3 are identical in specs and hardware *except* for the Touch ID sensor.
I was in the same situation when I heard of the mini 3...I was set to buy one (in addition to an already owned mini 2) until I saw the (negligible) differences in hardware and the price premium for that difference. I bought a second mini 2.

Should I upgrade my iPad mini from iOS 6.1.3 to iOS 7.1.1? Thanks in advance

Should I upgrade my iPad mini from iOS 6.1.3 to iOS 7.1.1? Thanks in advance

No, it's not true. If someone were to buy it from you then it would have to be completely restored as new at which time only the then current version of iOS can be installed. Having an older version on it now makes it worth no more than if it had 7.1.1 installed.
When you sell or give it away the new user cannot use anything on the device that is registered to your Apple ID. That's everything. You will need to turn off Find My Phone, remove the phone from your @icloud.com Find My Phone, then erase it completely. Unless you do that the device is useless to another owner. Erasing it will result in having the new iOS version installed.

I want to ask you if i will buy the ipad mini wifi from this site,after can i use it in Europe without problems?

i want to ask you if i will buy the ipad mini wifi from this site,after can i use it in Europe without problems?
Thank you

Wifi is wifi (generally) and you should be able to take your american bought device (presuming that's what you mean) to europe and get it online.
The biggest issue you may face is to make sure you have a plug adapter. Your power brick is rated for world wide power variances you'll just need an adapter to make the plug fit eurpoean plugs.

When i buy a ipad mini from verizon will it work in india

when i buy a ipad mini from verizon will it work in india

BobTheFisherman, thank you
I'm grateful that you helped me with understanding it. Now I get it.
Dah•veed, with all due respect,
What I asked about is the same thing ahmedsamiul707 asked about. I just wanted to know something more about the same thing. When you read the forum, you can see many threads which are exactly the same. Why add another thread if you have the same question? Only wanted an explanation. Was that so hard?
So to make it clear - as BobTheFisherman provided - all iPads are unlocked.

Should I get an iPad mini or iPad with Retina Display?

Help! I'm about to start college soon and I was thinking of buying an iPad. Thing is, I'm not sure which one I should get. I'll mainly be using the iPad for eBooks, taking notes, and other class related things. I just want to here some other peoples opinion on which iPad I should get. Should it be the iPad mini or the iPad with Retina Display?
I realize that I could just bring my laptop but I don't want to lug it around and have to carry the charger cords and all that.

Hi,
First, I think the size of the ipad is very individual. Some love the idea of 'put a mini in your pocket and go.' Others want to hang out somewhere and read more easily, watch movies/tv, etc. among other things, on a bigger screen. If you are near an Apple store, you might want to take a trip there and check out what your preference might be.
If money is an issue, as it is for many students or parents with students in college, consider looking in the Apple refurbished store. And this is because more important than the physical size of the ipad, is the AMOUNT OF SPACE you will buy vs. how much space you will end up needing as a college student.
My son got his ipad 2 refurb in the Apple refurb store before he started his junior year in college last year. He thought 32 gb would be more than enough, but some time during the school year, he used about 50 gb of his ipad 2 64 gb which was the way to go. He has to have apps and space for required financial newspapers, pdf's for class, text books, and of course, movies, tv shows, and music, and all that goes with it - netflix, hbo go, mlb, nfl, and other sports apps... The list goes on.
Following is a little more detail from a post I responded to this past week.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/22601600?ac_cid=ha123456#22601600
PLEASE NOTE - Whatever you decide - I read about an app last year and my son got it. It allows him to use anything on his imac (in his dorm) on his ipad and it works anywhere on campus. For example. if he's working on a paper on MS Word or Excel on his imac, and he's somewhere else on campus, he can actually work on his paper in its current program, save changes, etc., so he doesn't have to deal with many of the ios apps that sometimes change format and fonts in translation from mac/pc to ipad. wherever he is because pretty much all campuses have wireless. (It works everywhere for him on his big campus except in one classroom.)
However, when I was checking for updates on it the other day, I found one that sounds better than Splashtop. It's now the top paid app in the business in the app store, reviews are great, and for anywhere access does not require a cellular ipad. It's called Jump Desktop and it works with macs and pcs with your ipad.
Hope this helps and enjoy college!

I already have an ipad2 and I'm interested in buying an iPad mini. Will I have to purchase all the apps I have on my ipad2 again if I want to use them on the mini ,or, will I simply be able to use them on both machines for no extra charge?

I already have an ipad2. If I buy an iPad mini will I be able to download the apps I have already bought on to it and use them on both machines?

If you connect the new mini with the same AppleID you have on the iPad and you used to buy the Apps you will be able to download them again for free.
You can even let your iTunes do all the work for you. Sync your iPad with iTunes and make a backup. Give to the new mini a different name and the first time you will connect it to iTunes yiou will be asked if you wish to setup it as a new item or use the backup of the iPad.

What are the benefits of buying an Ipad mini over an Ipad 2

what are the benefits of buying an Ipad mini over an Ipad 2?

As Phil said, iPad mini is smaller; for most, it fits in one hand. It also has a better camera, and can take advantage of more software features like Siri.

If I buy an iPad Mini 4G in USA and take it back to Spain, can I use it here normally? Is a data plan needed in US? Thanks!

I'm travelling to NY in 10 days and my intention is to buy and iPad mini 4G to use it in Spain as I live here. Any problem when purchasing? Do I need to sign a data plan in US for Verizon, AT&T or Sprint?
Thanks for replying.

Wi-Fi + Cellular model: Keeps you connected to the Internet using a fast cellular data connection when Wi-Fi isn’t available. So you can stay connected when you’re commuting on the train, hanging out at the park, or looking for directions during a road trip. It’s available without a contract, and service is sold separately.

So what does this mean ...from online store

Either will work fine in Central Asia as loge ad the carries support GSM (almost all do).
One of the iPads will only work with the AT&T GSM) network if you are in the USA and the Other with the Virizon network (uses CDMA, not GSM/SIM) if you are in the USA
