This was my first iPad ever and I absolutely loved it and actually miss it. I now have an iPad Air 2 and it's obviously better in every way but still, this was a nice product.
My iPad mini which is no longer my main iPad, is still a great tablet today. It's especially good for laying in the bed at night and watching TH-cam, something my full sized iPad just isn't good at.
Pokemon Masters same I use my iPad 9.7 2018 for gaming and watching videos on my setup or in my living room, but I use my iPad mini for laying in bed to watch videos
This came with my college tuition in 2013 and I used the sh*t out of it. This was perfect as a planner, textbook reader, browser, emailing, etc. Mind you, this came at a time where the Note 2 just came out and the mainstream phone size was still roughly 4-4.5 inches and laptops (unless they were $1,000+) took a full couple of minutes to start up and open an application. VERY useful. I unfortunately lost it (I never lose things =( perhaps I left it on a desk and it was stolen) senior year.
I had mine for 5 years, before stepping on it and breaking it.. now I have a 9th generation iPad since the minis are more expensive than normal iPad now haha
I had a White iPad Mini and upgraded to a Black iPad Mini 4 in January. And to be honest I like the iPad Mini more than the iPad mini 4. The 4's battery dies faster and gets very hot which the first one didn't do. But I do love the Retina display the 4 has. The iPad Mini was running ios6 when it was bought and is now running on ios9. Both iPad's were some of the best purchases I have probably ever bought
I’ve been wanting to get a label printer for my small business for the longest time and finally pulled the trigger. I’m glad I did ! This machine is great th-cam.com/users/postUgkxw55tQTywUAAOsbrlwxONZULry77sFF1Q and the blue/green color matches the rest of the accents in my office. My favorite part is how small the footprint is. It’s less than 1/4 the size of my regular printer.Set up was fairly easy. Seller will email you a link with video instructions Which I found to be more helpful than the written instructions. I use a Mac and had no issues. They even included an adaptor for USB to USB-c which is great because I’m always losing mine! I had a few issues getting the labels to print properly and wasted quite a few sheets. You need to play around with the settings to get everything adjusted just right. If you have the wrong settings, it’ll crop off the edges or feed through blank labels. These aren’t issues with the machine though, just user error.
battery's been drained a 1000 times, screen's all cracked up and dented on the corners, yet the hardware still runs fine it's crazy my ipad mini is almost 11 years old and I can still watch youtube, browse instagram and tiktok, and game on it to
Honestly I love the white version and I'm actually watching this on the white iPad and I love the white one because I love the details it appears in. :)
One of the features i like is that they work perfectly well underwater, they don't advertise this, but i can assure you they perform excellently when submerged in water for long periods.. totally waterproof in fact.
The fact that I still use an Orignal iPad Mini... Runs on iOS 9 and (surprisingly) the battery lasts 3-4 days with normal use! Since it can't do anything modern as of 2024, I only use it to read books on iBooks (That works surprisingly well to this day), take pictures, and use iMessage on that "beast" from 2012! Any suggestions on how I can use it even more in 2024?? (If you are reading this comment...)
I still own a silver 16 GB iPad Mini, but I no longer use it, since I now use an iPad Mini 4. Hopefully soon the first gen iPad Mini will be considered "valuable" in the future and I'll still be proud to own one still.
I got this iPad in black and slate In about late August 2013 not realizing that there was going to be a new iPad mini coming out like a month after, I had it for about 2 years till in September 2015 I had accidentally dropped it and the screen had cracked to beyond use, now whenever I go on it it will go on all these apps, when I go on an app it will pull up all these tags. I'm wanting to fix it and sell it then buy a later model of the iPad mini but I'm not sure which one you decide the "iPad mini 3 " or the " iPad mini 4" I was thinking the iPad mini 3 because I already have a couple of cases from my iPad mini 1 which would fit it which the iPad mini 4 wouldn't
I'd recommend the mini 2 instead seeing as the Touch ID doesn't interest me and I own it haha. but if you are set on having it then the mini 3 as its compatible with the cases you have
Wait I thought this was the mini 5 😁. Wrong year. Where has you been Detroit Borg. I feel like I haven't seen you videos in forever. Hope everything is going well for you my fellow Trekkie.
I got this in early 2013 for my 4th birthday. I loved it. I used it till early 2019 for my 10th birthday, when I got the iPad from early 2018. If your looking for a iPad to just binge videos on, buy this! It functions great!
I got mine, i have the black one. I'm using it right now to post this comment. I like the black one better. The white can probably get dirty faster, but idk. Anyways the iPad mini is great. The retina display is probably better but oh well!
My first iPad ever. The battery lasted so so long I don’t know why today’s iPad doesn’t last that long. Made a bunch of memories with this and finally got a iPad 8 in 2020.
i got this for my kids today for Christmas, SO happy, this video made it even better, theyre both perfect, i got two whites tho, just love the look, only wish they had the rose gold background
DetroitBorg, The iPad Mini 1st Generation is pretty comfortable on the hand. One time I have holded in one hand for 1 hour I guess . But it does not pain at all.
I bought this for my mother she has an iPad but it was starting to be much carry it in her bag. She's always wanted the mini for its lightweight and compact features.
This was the first iPad that I ever bought. Got it the day after my 13th birthday, paid $360 for it. Man, this brings back memories. iMessage was amazing back then! I'm gonna have to go back to an iPhone this generation from my LG G3. The nostalgia is real!!!
This is so cool! But I have something to say... All the money that people spend on iPads and electronics and stuff like that could be used in a better way. Have a moment and think about all the animals in animal shelters and how every minute a puppy gets euthanized because no one adopted it. I think that we should use it to donate money to animal shelters or veterinarians .
I've literally just bought an iPad mini (1) and it's so nice and light. I literally bought it to travel over my larger iPad Air 2. Instead I prefer using it, I got black and slate
Hey detroitborg. I am going to buy a ipad mini and i am not sure what color is better. I think the white is very sharp and doesn't attract fingerprints as much. But the black looks cool and some say the screen looks better on the black. Which should I get?
anyway, thanks DetroitBORG for your unboxing and demo, because my mm told me this june, I'll have an iPad mini, so I am thankful this video will guide me when I open it soon
white looks nice, but when you are using it, the pure white bezel gets very distracting, therefore content is very hard to pay attention to. i am having the same dilemma. i went to the apple store yesterday and got this advice. black is more neutral, and way less noticeable. u cant see the edge of the screen and black bars.
I just have a small question, my brother is getting an iPad mini for Christmas. I am wondering how much battery is available when you first turn the iPad on?
I know it is more than 50% , perhaps more than 60%. tell him to take care of it, mine is all messed up, so Im getting the new one and this time Imma take more care of it.
Just bought mine yesterday. Dont really care about specs or the possibility of a new one coming out. At the end of the day I wanted a tablet for netflix and browsing the web and also playing some games. I have a mbp so this was an obvious choice for me
hi sir, iPad Mini 3 is out for several days now in kuwait and i pad mini is cheap about 180$ should i buy it for my 3 years old sister or buy a bigger android tab ??

I owned an iPad mini 2. It was a great tablet, sadly I no longer have it.
Love watching old DetroitBorg unboxings haha

Soulflame123 me too watching on iPad air 2

Me too. Love all the old iPad and iPhone unboxing videos. I'm watching on my iPad pro. I wonder what we will have in 2 years time?
+Soulflame123 i had ipad pro , but i dont like it it was lagging and i sold it. now i have ipad air 2 128 gb
Im watching this video in my iPad mini 1

Big fan of the iPad Mini accessories. I have a ton of cases, protectors, and....

did you jailbreak it

NinjaFlare it sounds like it. LOL
bonnie43uk Don't listen to him, I bought mine a year ago and dropped it into the water and died instantly. Now I have a new one.
jon doge yes, they are not waterproof, my sister wrote that, damn her getting my laptop and typing erroneous comments!
bonnie43uk Really?
10:17 looks so cool. I love apple!!
10:17
same 1:08
Absolutely loved the almost obsidian like slate colour of the first iPad mini and the iPhone 5. It was just so elegant.
Yeah, it’s a shame Apple doesn’t go for a full jet black look again considering all their phones are glass and polished metal.
The fact that I still use an Orignal iPad Mini... Runs on iOS 9 and (surprisingly) the battery lasts 3-4 days with normal use!

Have this and iPad Air. Love them both. Take the mini out and use the air at home. Love my iPads.
Wow, did I leave this comment a year ago? I have just got the iPad pro and love it.

Prodigy Sebazzee001 lucky day! 4yrs wait!
Apple should include earpods with the ipad.
Yh I know
If u have enough money, buy razor earpads (Works great!)
***** i know i mean every ipad should include a set
Agreed
My first iPad ever. The battery lasted so so long I don’t know why today’s iPad doesn’t last that long. Made a bunch of memories with this and finally got a iPad 8 in 2020.

I think that we should use it to donate money to animal shelters or veterinarians .
Well honestly most ppl buy electronics instead of pets because maybe they need it for work or they have enough pets already
I hate puppies and I want to kill theem all! who cares if they get euthanized its not like they stab them
Pokemon Addictionz I don't like you
who hates dogs
like
well, you don't like me I don't care its not illegal to hate dogs.
Pokemon Addictionz well I understand you may not like them but I was being sarcastic
The black and slate ipad mini is the coolest apple product I want one so bad
I've literally just bought an iPad mini (1) and it's so nice and light. I literally bought it to travel over my larger iPad Air 2. Instead I prefer using it, I got black and slate
We used to bring this bad boy on so many road trips
Hey detroitborg. I am going to buy a ipad mini and i am not sure what color is better.
I think the white is very sharp and doesn't attract fingerprints as much. But the black looks cool and some say the screen looks better on the black. Which should I get?

white looks nice, but when you are using it, the pure white bezel gets very distracting, therefore content is very hard to pay attention to. i am having the same dilemma. i went to the apple store yesterday and got this advice. black is more neutral, and way less noticeable. u cant see the edge of the screen and black bars.
One of the best Apple whims
Just order my ipad mini cant wait to have it
me too. hurry the hell up ipad!
Picking mine up at 10am can't wait
This was a great Video!!! I'm Going with WHITE all the way, No Doubt!
I just have a small question, my brother is getting an iPad mini for Christmas. I am wondering how much battery is available when you first turn the iPad on?
I know it is more than 50% , perhaps more than 60%.
tell him to take care of it, mine is all messed up, so Im getting the new one and this time Imma take more care of it.
Just bought mine yesterday. Dont really care about specs or the possibility of a new one coming out. At the end of the day I wanted a tablet for netflix and browsing the web and also playing some games. I have a mbp so this was an obvious choice for me
My brother bought the Black one but he gotthe SILVER back on his, He got one that had been mixed up withthw colours!
Legend says it that DetroitBORG's 4G iPad mini is still shipping...

Oh god the memories of watching this!
hi sir, iPad Mini 3 is out for several days now in kuwait and i
pad mini is cheap about 180$ should i buy it for my 3 years old sister or buy a bigger android tab ??
I like the way Apple is going. They should also make a slate version of the Macbook pros and airs.
Black is gorgeous.
Great video Detroitborg I can't wait to get the iPad mini 1
white and silver have add a shine to the ipad mini
Black One is so different !!!!! omg is just the color lol
