- Since it arrived, the sixth generation iPad mini has become one of my favorite devices to read books on. It makes sense to me for quite a few reasons, and it might make sense to you too. In some ways, I even prefer this iPad mini over the Kindle. In this video, I will go over 5 reasons why the iPad mini 6 is the perfect e-reader!

I agree completely. I use my iPad mini as a wonderful and versatile reader yet it can serve a multitude of practical services for me when I am not reading.Much better dollar value. When I take a trip I download my books and set the low power mode and airplane mode to double battery life.
Problems, imo, are price and the fact that if I have a device that can play games, TH-cam and Netflix I’m less likely to use it for reading
such a great point
iPad mini is more ideal for an avid (as in addict) reader, who would crave to read a book on whatever device or physical book they can get their hands on. Yes, for more casual readers, a Kindle is more ideal as it compartmentalizes the reading experience more effectively.
that's your problem not the ipad's
I love reading on my iPad Mini! So much so that I ditched my Kindle Paperwhite after I got it. The funny thing is I did not get the mini for reading; I initially got it as a travel iPad to take when my husband and I go on long motorcycle trips. I figured I'd use it for watching videos, posting pics to social media, and light tasks like that, but I actually carry it everywhere and use it for my planner, notetaking, social media, journaling, reading, and so much more.
But how is it on the eyes compared to your Kindle?
@@laurabernay I don't have any problems with it. Personally the kindle never really seemed easier on my eyes and I hated the black and white. I also hated having a device that was only good for reading books. My iPad mini does so much more.
Thanks Tracy. I have been an Apple user all my life and I think I would agree with you about the iPad mini. The thought of just black and white too is not very exciting and then the compatibility....I know they say it's easier to sort out but I just know with a new gadget it takes work! I think the iPad mini would be easier. I am looking around now for anti blue light screens to add to it as my eyes get really tired on screens!. Thanks for the comment. :)@@traceysmith311
agree
I went through sooo many kindles trying to find the right one. I now have the Kindle Signature but it’s not good for note taking till I learned about the iPad mini 6 I have the 2nd generation when I was in the military to help keep track of things. But this one for reading! Is amazing I bought about a week ago and I’m in love and I’m usually it for almost everything.
and what about the e-ink that you missed in the ipad. does it affect your eyes? or do you feel uncomfortable for reading on the ipad for a long time?
There is your problem. You didnt look past kindle. E-ink display is what make a “reader” great and purpose built. If you really wanted a reader with E-ink display, you should check out reMarkable 2, Onyx Boox nova air 2(just released), Onyx Book tab ultra(just released too). Boox makes great E-ink tablets which are great readers as well as note taking. If you just care about reading then check out boox leaf2 which they released today as well.
@you raed that wrong
Ty for ur comment! If you could help me…
Im looking for a reader that i can read pdfs without minding the copyright🫣 and smooth and I can write on it,
Also syncing to my other devices would be great
iPad Mini 5 is amazing! The perfect travel companion!
I really loved the OLED screen on my old android for reading, the pitch black background worked so well for me. I don't like my current iphone screen and the reading apps aren't as customizable
Nice, I'd forgotten about Focus modes, and there's one for Reading! Legit helpful!
Great video. I just bought new I pad 10 but may change now for the mini. I was looking for a bigger reading tablet.
The way you have explained n highlighted every feature and use case is amazing, so first of all I appreciate you for that and I’ve ipad pro 11 inch which is a perfect one for my need❤IPad mini is not something I would look forward too 😊
Glad you liked the video! Be sure to subscribe 😊
THIS IS a GOOD VIDEO! Thanks for sticking to the point.
great information, thank you. I wasn't aware of the focus function for reading.great tips
Glad it was helpful!
i purcahse one of them.. and i love it so much!!
I Love your video!! I am a new subscriber now!!! Keep up the great work!!!
Thank you Keith! 😃
I definitely like how it’s an all-in-one device
It is the highlight sync and look up features for me.
Thank you for this review! Due to the latest update that has really caused issues with my Oasis, I am looking at the iPad mini. However I really enjoy e-ink displays and after being on a computer all day, I find my eyes need a rest. I don’t know if the e-ink really helps or if that is just my imagination.
Hi Laura! Though e-ink is much easier on the eyes, the iPad’s display features make it way easier to read on than iPads before it. Plus for me, the iPad mini is the perfect all in one device :)
You can greatly reduce eye fatigue by inverting the screen so the words are white and the background is black.
You can reduce white point to get even easier to read on the iPad
You can even turn on greyscale by going into the colour filters settings on iPad. Turn on accessibility shortcuts and you have your greyscale in control centre.
In addition to these other comments, putting a Paperlike screen protector on it was the final piece for me. Adjusting the color warmth and trying grayscale with that paperlike on it makes it very, very close in feel to an ereader, at least on my eyes. It is very comfortable to read for extended periods.
Kindle 11gen unbeatable for reading books hands down, and i have both.
Does the ipad mini allow immersion reading? I discovered immersion reading makes me read and comprehend more.
You sold me on it. I have an iPad Pro 12.9 which I use with a keyboard mainly for work. But as you say, it’s a hassle to take it with me everywhere and use it for light tasks. I need something to read and do simple stuff while waiting at a doctor’s office and stuff like that. This is perfect for me.
I’m in a real dilemma about whether to get a kindle or an iPad mini. My main issue is the eye strain with my existing iPad and MacBook Air. When you say iPad mini 6 is backlit unlike the Kindles, well isn’t that the problem for the eyes?? Back light isn’t good for the eyes is it?
I’m debating switching to the mini from an air for the smaller form factor. My only concern is if I could easily read a two column textbook in vertical mode. My air can do it just fine, it’s just rather cumbersome. Do you have any feedback on that?
After using the latest-gen Air, I prefer the Air more now. Especially for two-column reading
That’s great feedback. Thank you!
@@FaizAly I have an 11in pro and I’m thinking about getting a mini for reading and planning. Do you think I should just read on the 11in rather than getting a mini?
@@Shmyrk honestly it’s personal preference. Go to the store and check the mini out. You may love it or may think your 11” iPad is better
Great video, Faiz Aly!
I love your view on ipad. 100% agreed. Mini 6 is the best ipad ever.
Thank you! Be sure to subscribe!
Subscribed! Do you have any phone recommendations?
Thanks for subscribing! I highly recommend iPhone 👌🏼
Thank you for the video, but I'll stick with my kindle!
Rightly so! Nothing beats a dedicated device especially designed for reading.
Agreed
Is there a web browser, I wonder if i can read manga online?
I was on the line between an iPad mini and a kindle paperwhite. Once I saw and felt it with a Paperlike screen protector, I was sold on the iPad mini. Reading on it with the Kindle app feels fantastic. I also use it with a reading focus so that it takes everything else off the screen and eliminates notifications. It’s fantastic. I also use it for journaling on a regular basis with the Apple Pencil. It may not be for everyone, but it’s has been stellar for me for reading and writing.
@@h_x_hHow long does the battery last on it if we're talking about reading though
Great video! The only issue that I find when I read on my iPad mini is that my eyes get so tired.
Thank you, Ivan! Be sure to subscribe to my channel if you haven’t already done so :) The iPad mini is nice but I agree for long periods of reading it can definitely be tiring for the eyes
I am looking of getting the Paper Screen saver; reduces the glare and also easier for taking notes
Use Setting "reduce white point" on ipad to 95%
You can set the iPad to black and white when reading too
Someday I hope the iPads will have e ink for reading
And the display looks much better than gray-on-gray eink. With matte film, it looks exactly like paper.
I want to get into digital sketching and reading more at first I wanted the Kindle but then I realized that iPad mini would be better. It would knock out two birds with one stone there’s no point in buying an iPad mini and a Kindle.
Great video..I like my Ipad mini but I still have eyes strain😕
For extended periods of reading ebooks, Kindle >>>
Thank you, Umetnost! Be sure to subscribe to my channel if you haven’t already done so :) The iPad mini is nice but I agree for long periods of reading it can definitely be tiring for the eyes!
Which kind of screen protector is better for it if you want to read books?
I am interested to know that.
Since he’s not very good at responding to questions I will attempt to…get a matte/paper-like screen protector. By far the best kind for iPads if you want to read. Cuts back on glare and fingerprints.
@@NerdishlyActive I'd disagree, pls go for glass- if you plan on using your ipad also for media consumption and you care about true colour gamut that you pay apple for
i think the better screen saver for ipad is just the normal one.. there no need to use the other kind of screen saver really
I gave away my kindle because of the same reasons. Ipads are more practical and non-restricting.
Thaks for the video

ipad mini 6为什么不出墨水屏？或者像华为matepad那样用柔光屏
Love it!
My problem with this ipad is 2 things: no pro motion and m series chip. When apple decides to do that with the next mini, the paper white and the ipad pro combo is gold.
Plus i imagine the ipad mini doesnt have that great battery life for reading only..
Why are Pro Motion and M series processor important for reading?
How will it perform on the beach...bright sun and moist environment?
Hi Thelma, not the best for outdoors. BUT if you get a matte finish screen protector, it's much better
Can you tell me where's the cheapest place to get the phones and the mini. Does AAPL have sales or should I go to WMT?
Also, SENIOR CITIZEN discounts...?
So I understand that u have iPad Pro too? Same! But I’m bit hesitated on buying another iPad just for reading… cuz I do read on my iPad Pro and do my university work but it’s big and like I said..for studying more… I feel I’m not comfortable to read on it cuz how big it is and the battery is likely to be dead due to my studying…and I feel like it’s weird to have two iPads and syncing but idk ugh it’s so convincing yet I’m here
I thought it would be weird to use 2 iPads. But now that I have the Pro and the mini I love it. Think of the iPad Pro as a laptop machine and the mini as a dedicated e-reader. They both can be taken with you to library, coffee shops, etc
Yea i think this is the best way to think about it, a 2nd reader is nice to have, but does it hurt the eyes unlike the kindle? I heard thats a major difference if you could tell me abt that, appreciate it
Which app do You use for reading?
Apple Books and Kindle
Kindle is monochrome and can’t read certain formats. (Many technical books won’t load.) Many journals and magazines look subpar. Monochrome graphics often don’t cut it.
The iPad Mini is essentially the same size, can read more formats, has great color. Journals and magazines look great. Color graphics look amazing.
I have both, but I know what reading material to load in each.
I like everything about the iPad Mini 6, except for the price. It's about $150 more than the basic iPad.
wow new insight
I hate how bad ipads screw up my eyes, otherwise i would absolutely LOVE to just buy an ipad mini since it can do audiobooks and regular books. :(
How do you get past the glare while reading on an iPad?
I installed a matte screen protector
Love reading on my iPad. I did upgrade my kindle this year too. But I use my iPad mini quite a bit but the battery life isn’t very good for that. It I also find myself fertile more distracted using it because of notifications 😂😂. So if I want to read no distractions, I’ll use the kindle.
Airplane mode is your friend, also will power.
the ipad mini i 6th generation has a great battery life :)
Maybe create a reading focus mode?
one question :) can you read in the sun? thank you!
I love the iPad mini!
have ipad mini, but iwant to get kiddle now😊
Both can totally co-exist! I use my iPad mini and kindle equally
@@FaizAly he said Kiddle not Kindle
Why the mini and not the air 5 ? Isn’t it better a larger screen ?
The mini is smaller and easier to hold, like an actual book or ereader
Ipad sure is better that kindle especially in reading colourful books like medical , scientific book
But kindle noooo
Reading text on an ipad sucks, a cheap e-reader works so much better.
Love my ipad for other stuff though.
Now I want an iPad mini 😭
Mini is great for everything except longform reading. It’s too easily to be distracted by it.
Only thing I can think of would be to create a focus mode dedicated to reading and clear out all notifications beforehand.
But yea…I’ll stick to Kobo
5:34 ipad mini doesn't have an LED display.
Lcd is generally called led backlit even on apple website. But it's not OLED, there are no oled ipads yet
No waty would I choose to read on my iPad mini over my kindle e-reader
Naah, this won't work for me. The limitation you have with a kindle is a plus. You can't just switch to TH-cam and Netflix and thats the great thing about it. You can read for weeks without charging it and don't have to worry about bringing it to the beach. And of course: no eye strain. And by that I don't only mean the eye strain after half an hour, but I find it uncomfortable even after seconds I read on my iPad.
It may be the cheaper device if you already have an iPad, but its not at all the better device!
too bad no eink display, the whole point of an ereader
No way .... Its so painful for me..... Can't do it at all....
No, iPad still couldn’t replicate the comfort and overall durability to replace kindle; we need to be very careful when it goes to the usage of iPad, providing the device protective case and screen protector, because without it you’ll risking your iPad to get damaged.
While it’s not the case with kindle paperwhite.
I have both and my ipad mainly there to support my kindle only in aspect kindle isn’t excel for it which is digital notetaking.
I'd probably read manga on ipad mini, not books though.
What about the manga? It is good?
Absolutely
@@FaizAly ok i will buy Ipad mini 6 then. Thanks for the video. 👍
@@sandyaerlangga1992 be sure to subscribe!
@@FaizAly finally i got the ipad mini dude 😂, btw i”m newbie using the ipad mini 6, which one do you prefer for screen protector? ESr? Bellemont? Paperlike?
@@sandyaerlangga1992 I use the ESR!
Z fold best for read
Really wanting to try the Z Fold!
And it has the Immersion Reading option, something the Kindle can’t do.
what is that??
Lol with the actual book you’re reading. Go, sugar babies! 😂
How much
iPad 6 how much
Just too much for the size
Is your eye contact ai?
iPad is very good device but no good for eyes as an eink device
iPad mini is too distracting. Kindle is a great focus tool.
Kindle al the way, so much lighter and nicer to read on & the battery lasts forever.
does the kindle have audible reading (outloud reading)??
@@jessmedina252 for i know yes
But depends on the model ig
@@jessmedina252 yes but you have to hook up wireless buds to it or a amazon speaker…and it depends on the model u get…I have the signature kindle and it supports audible
Screw mini 6. Even mini 2 is great for book reading.
Yes the color of mini 2 is a bit more washed out, so it's not glaring and comfortable to read on
this must be a joke or did ipad start using e-ink screens.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
One major reason this video is WRONG...... it's a backlit tablet. Not e-ink.
This fool was obviously paid to make this disingenuous advert and not mention that. The e-ink, durability, battery life and zero-distractibility interface all make e-readers way better options than iPads. Dedicated e readers serve a specific purpose which conventional tablets fail to. Stupid video
Great if you want to go blind
Stupid video - no its not. Use dedicated devices for dedicated purposes.
Dude, are you in your mind? LCD or OLED display can't be the "perfect" ereader. It is impossible. Stop misleading people. You are just superficial amateur blogger.
💯 Spot on!
