@@khbkcbdck’ve got a Mini 5 but the size works perfectly in small sling bags and daypacks. It’s also less cumbersome to use in an airplane seat, especially for reading and watching movies.

I purchased an ipad 9 and unfortunately it was not as i expect and need: heavy and too big (and support only apple pencil 1). I gave it to my little sister and she really loved it. she loves to draw/design and its big screen is great for her work. I purchased mini 6 in the next months and love it so far! it is great to compliment my mac and iphone 11 for my use. work that need bigger screen (and mostly serious work like coding), i will use my mac. for notetaking, reading, will use my ipad mini. and for most communication, camera, more portable entertainment (like when commuting), can switch to my iphone. different people may have different perfect ipad based on their uses, so one should choose wisely
I have the iPad mini 6 since i traded it from the 11 inch iPad Pro, and haven’t looked back. I actually prefer the mini now. It’s perfect in terms of reading and writing, and I use it for streaming and gaming as well. I think it’s great for illustrator as well if they prefer a smaller display. If they ever do a IPad mini 7, I think they should adapt the internals of the Pro version into it to match it, but the Mini lineup is very underrated
Buy the iPad mini if you often use your iPad for reading ebooks while lying down on a couch or a bed or whatever. The smaller, lighter body of the iPad mini will be more forgiving for your frail arms.
Watching this from my ipad 9th gen. I think better on smaller ipad which is easy to hold, when playing games your hand not too tired when you hold a bigger ipad and heavy, easy to carry around or when you go out, you can carry in a smaller bag, i got this bulky ipad sometimes hard to carry around but i love my ipad for watching movies. Depend on how you use it.
I have an iPad Pro in the house and owned the 8th gen iPad. Replaced that with the iPad Mini 6 in 256GB. It’s a long term tablet for me and for the price I’ve already paid for it in use has covered the value many times over. I will probably stick with the iPad mini and it’s future replacements in the long run. Will keep the Mini 6 until it’s no longer viable.
The iPad 10 is $600 in 🇨🇦 vs. $450 for the iPad 9. A $150 price increase does not seem reasonable for the same storage, same pen and a non-laminated display. For this price increase, Apple should have bumped the base storage to 128 gb. on the iPad 10.
I went with the 10 because I DON'T use a pencil and the air gap isn't noticeable to me. Portability isn't an issue either, I'd rather use my phone in most cases. I wanted the front facing camera and the bigger screen because i'm a pilot and use foreflight and enjoy the bigger map display. I've had mini in the past and its slick and fun but its not as functional overall compared to a bigger tablet. Anyone saying it is has a VERY specific work idea for it imo. EDIT: i had the 9 for a bit with the pencil and I don't know why people hate the idea that the 10 doesn't support the 2nd. I never needed to charge the pencil it seemed, it lasts forever and charges quickly. If you have a cover on the mini you can't charge it on the top anyway in some cases. Unless you're an artist or heavy pencil note taker its not a big deal
I think people over estimate the need for a pencil. I use it as a drawing tool, but I don’t see why someone who doesn’t draw needs it. One of those cheap stylus can work as a pointer if that’s what you need.
@@sloppynyuszi Some people use it to take copious notes-they might be students, use it for work, or both, so the pencil would potentially get HOURS of use, even by someone who doesn’t draw (does doodling during meetings count?). I’m not an artist, but do like having my pencil. I *had* an Apple Pencil, but it flew out of my mini case’s elastic loop when I pulled something else out of my shopping bag, and didn’t realize that the iPad mini would LEAP out w/ it (it was a semi-tight fit). 😮 I bought a replacement pencil, BUT it’s a generic one, and it suits my needs perfectly. 👌 The one I bought was $37, and it both stores AND charges magnetically against the iPad! I didn’t even know that that was on offer, but Amazon suggested the item to me-otherwise, I would’ve settled for one that charges w/ a USB-C cable. At about 1/3 the cost of an Apple Pencil, I’d recommend it for people who want one, but don’t want to spend $130 on it.
I have a mini and still have an iPad 9th gen. I don’t use a pencil much, but can use the Logitech crayon in the rare event I feel like writing. Thankfully, there are also cheaper keyboards for iPad than the Magic Keyboard, whose price I can’t justify. Again, Logitech is my go-to. I’m not affiliated with them or compensated in any way-I think they just deliver a great product at more sane prices. I may trade my 9th gen at some point but may wait for the next/11th gen. If I need to type using the mini, I have a Bluetooth full size keyboard that works, but I normally use it for consumption as I use a regular laptop for work.
Great comparison 🔥 I bought the iPad mini 6 a couple of days ago, it is serving me the way I planned to use it for: reading , designing social media posts, consuming content, gaming. Surprisingly the iPad mini 6 price in where i live (Iraq) is $440! (Brand new)
Another great comparison, thanks! I wish my mini 6 had the camera on the side like the iPad 10 does because for me that's its only flaw. The smaller size of the mini 6 is perfect for my use case, but if I wanted a larger iPad my preference these days would be an iPad Air.
Love love my iPad Air. I very rarely watch tv, but I do watch shows and movies on my iPad. I have iPad Pro (12.9-inch) (3rd generation). I also have a protective cover on it. It does have a crack on a corner but the cover is doing a great job of keeping it together.
Well for me I love to use the iPad with an external monitor and the Apple keyboard and trackpad if I want a more desktop feel, and. Just unplug when I want to leave and use it as a iPad.
I have iPad mini and iPad Pro - I hate the fact that iPad mini doesn’t look very bright. It’s 500 nits on paper but that’s a smaller surface area lighting up so my eyes perceive it as dim. I can barely see stuff during day time. My daughter has the last gen iPad and that screen gets blindingly bright compared to iPad mini.
That’s definitely a notable CON for the iPad mini! The screen is never bright enough for outdoor use, and just barely enough for daytime use, if you’re near a window.
In India the cost get fluctuate as we go through different sites. Amazon or Flipkart available iPad 10 at ₹40,000 = $489 and iPad mini at ₹46,000=$549 (approx) I gonna get iPad 9 at ₹33,000=$399 Should I go through iPad 10 with this price
@@sugarplum8888 I just gonna say that wait a bit for iPad mini 7. You won’t regret it later, yeah if iPad mini 7 is gonna launch after a year then probably go for mini 6. Use it for couple of years then switch to other ones. But don’t get iPad 10(warning)(Alert)…
I’m now on my THIRD iPad mini (Gen. 2, 4, and now 6), and I ❤️ this form factor! Not everyone will be able to do this, since it depends on their life circumstances, but I use the iPad mini 6 as my daily driver. I’m usually on wifi, so I don’t need a robust data plan, and bought Mint Mobile’s lowest one (4GB for $15/mo.). I have Bluetooth headphones, so phone/video calls can be answered remotely. For my daily basic needs (email, calendar, reminders, podcasts, music, TH-cam, browser, photos, alarms, etc.), the iPad mini 6 can do it ALL! What I love is that the screen is big enough to see most things that don’t require much detailed viewing, yet is light & portable (I’m a female who uses a smallish crossbody bag). I love not needing a smartphone! I have a 2-in-1 (HP Spectre), if I need a bigger screen and capabilities that this mini-tablet doesn’t possess. For the right user, the iPad mini could easily be their go-to for potentially EVERYTHING, if possible. If Apple didn’t deliberately leave out certain features that one would have on a laptop, I’d just have a separate screen and keyboard to use it on a desktop.
I mostly need the iPad for my business scheduling billing and content/ designs an I’m kind of torn between the two even with this info I’m not sure which to go with!
I would point out that most people use the iPad mini in portrait mode, especially since there’s no first party keyboard for the device. I wouldn’t want Apple to move the camera to landscape since that would be weird.
The selling points of this iPad (10th generation) for me were the landscaped front-facing camera, silver color-way option, and the braided cable-which all of these mentioned the iPad Air doesn't have. iPad Pro would have been too overkill for me and the iPad mini is way out of my league with its small form factor.
Great video once again, tnx. What keyboard do you recommend on these newer iPads. I know you did a video on keyboards a while ago. Would that still be valid?
If you want something that's easy to take with you and has a great display, then the iPad mini might be a better choice for you. On the other hand, if you want a bigger screen and something that's a bit more budget-friendly, then the 10th generation iPad could be the way to go. Ultimately, it's all about what works best for your needs and preferences! I got an iPad Air 5th Gen with a student offer. In India 🇮🇳 , The iPad Mini starts at ₹49900 ($605.96) yikes!.. Whereas the iPad 10th Gen is about ₹44900 ($545.25). iPads are very overpriced here in India.
They sure are! I’m planning to buy my first ever iPad, and just seeing the prices is giving me a headache. And deciding which one to get is super confusing as well!
@@Geniekyu same here with me , I am confused with all three in India during sale difference between mini and 10th gen is 50$ and difference between air m1 and 10th gen is 100$ , I want a pencil too so these prices are extremely confusing 😂
@@NayagarhSensei I’ve just stopped thinking about it for now. Hopefully, in a month or two the prices will go down? 😭 I don’t really need a pencil but I’ve seen so many unboxing videos that it makes me want to have one so a cheap alternative will do the job I guess 😬
@@Geniekyu if you want it for drawing and editing and for content browsing ipad will do a better job, but for content browsing the cheap alternative will be better with those amoled screens.
For a high school student, would the mini 6 be better than a budget windows laptop (that's roughly half the price 100 - $200). Minus all of the extra perks that the Mini can offer.
id say go with a laptop, ipads cant do everything a laptop can do. they may be more convenient, but laptops have microsoft word and such, which is used a lot in school, where ipads do not
just go with the laptop, you're gonna need some software that might not available in ipad (in my experience), also, many task may not fits on tablet ability like interchange data with friends, editing documents with ease (some are not comfort using tablet)
I got a 10th-gen iPad with 256 GB, and I absolutely hated it. It felt like using a laptop screen, which I already have, so it just didn’t feel right. To be honest, it even felt a bit cheap. The next day, I went back and replaced it with a Mini 6, and I couldn’t be happier. The Mini 6 actually feels like a tablet-it’s lovely, has Apple’s AI, and overall, everything about it feels a bit better. That was my personal experience. I watched loads of reviews to try and pick the right one, but I initially failed. If you’re not planning to use your iPad as a laptop, I’d recommend getting the Mini.
A ratio between 4:3 and 3:2 is not possible for me in 2023. For any video we have huge black bars on the top and the bottom. Seems to use a tablet from 2015.
I have the iPad 9 that works good for me the iPad 10 is nice but with only Apple Pencil 1 support and have to use a cable or dongle to charge that was the one main reason to skip it and wait for the iPad 11.
My main reason for minis is resell value. Minis seem to hold their value much longer than standard iPads like the 10. Used iPad 10 sells for as much as a used iPad mini 5 while a used mini 6 still sells for as much as a new 10
Does anyone have experience with Scrivener on either the ipad 10 or mini 6? I'm looking into an ipad for a more easily portable writing device. I used my phone (s23 Ultra), which was fine, but I've recently begun using Scrivener which has no android version. I think the mini would be fine - bigger than my phone but still fairly small - but my sister keeps telling me I will regret not having a bigger screen.
I have the iPad mini. I watch movies, play games, take notes with the pencil with it. The reason why I'm looking at the iPad 10 is for the note taking. I love that is has a bigger screen for it. I looked at the Remarkable 2 but mehhhhhh... Also, the fact that the Pencil 2 isn't compatible with iPad 10 is a bummer... Any thoughts guys?
Hi, here in Switzerland 🇨🇭the prices are 569 CHF (around 609$) for the iPad mini and 499 CHF (around 534$)for the iPad 10 - the taxes are included already in the prices here
I was doing some research for Ipad Mini. Just curious if its good for taking notes, watching movies and for content creator. I do still using my journal for taking notes but i need something paperless.
I would say the mini is better as it offers a better screen and cpu for just $50 more. I also don't particularly like using a large tablet, feels like a laptop.
Which would you recommend for writing (novels, articles etc) or website editing? Debating whether to get an iPad mini 6 to replace my laptop which I use for writing and web editing but don’t want to waste money on something that won’t exceed my expectations
I'm looking at the two for something similar. Since would work while riding in the car on a fairly regular basis, and he said you don't get a whole lot of extra content on the ipad (everything is larger), for me I think the mini would be the best fit, as it would be very easy to hold, and lighting/reflectivity from the windows could be more of an issue with the ipad 10. However, the ipad with keyboard case could basically be a laptop, which would be great as well. Did you end up getting one? How has it worked out for you?
great video as always! for my spouse and I, we decided on the ipad 10 because of screen size. the mini's screen size is too close to our iphones screen to justify carrying a seperate item that does the same thing. not to mention its more expensive than the ipad 10.
i'm seriously consider trading my m2 11" for a mini 6... it gets a bit much holding this device all day lol they're a lot heavier than tahn youtubers make it out to be
I watched your video like 5 times or more and still don’t know wich one to get as I’m on a budget I can get a refurbished IPad mini for 400euro and an iPad 10 gen for 350euro. So my question is wich one to get!?😅 I’m back and forth as I don't really know as it's my first time getting and iPad as l'm a singer I need a device that plays my backing tracks while I'm singing as I don't want to bring my MacBook all the time as it's big and heavy and may break due to audience dancing at my shows so on. And I would love to try start to learn drawing and make notes and plan my days with it. So it's not for long travels just to my hotel venues. So I’m not sure wich of the 2 would be best as I’m worried the iPad mini is too small but it supports Apple Pencil 2 wich I like. What would you recommend? Please help 😅❤️🙏😩 Thank you so much your videos really help.
I actually bought the 10 first, but realized what I actually wanted was a laptop. I thought it was too cumbersome, and although it was cool, I ended up not liking it much. I swapped it for the mini and haven’t looked back. Love the mini way more than the 10. It’s just way more portable and doesn’t try to be a laptop. I do think it was way too expensive though 😅
I am thinking to get one but still confuse … should I get the regular iPad 10th or mini … I like mini cuz it fit everywhere but is like an big phone but iPad is just kinda big but I want both - any idea ?
My aunts and uncles would much prefer the iPad 10 over the iPad mini not only has the iPad mini is around $200 more but because the iPhone 10 has a larger display
Changing my mini for the 10. On,y use it for emails and media content so the big screen is a plus for me. I don’t game or use photo shop type apps. Maybe use to make some teams calls so the landscape mounted selfie cam is a huge plus.
I have the mini 5 and I just got the 10th gen for a discounted price £380 and I’m happy. I get a bigger screen and still get to use the pencil however I will need to get an adapter. The mini 5 just runs out so fast and while I did want the mini 6 the price is absolutely abysmal. Apple overprice things a lot but I’m happy with the deal here.

I think better on smaller ipad which is easy to hold, when playing games your hand not too tired when you hold a bigger ipad and heavy, easy to carry around or when you go out, you can carry in a smaller bag, i got this bulky ipad sometimes hard to carry around but i love my ipad for watching movies. Depend on how you use it.
I have an iPad Pro in the house and owned the 8th gen iPad. Replaced that with the iPad Mini 6 in 256GB. It’s a long term tablet for me and for the price I’ve already paid for it in use has covered the value many times over. I will probably stick with the iPad mini and it’s future replacements in the long run. Will keep the Mini 6 until it’s no longer viable.
what do you use the mini for? asking because i was thinking of getting one
went with ipad mini 6 and the gaming experience is just on another level compared to my android gaming phone!!
The iPad 10 is $600 in 🇨🇦 vs. $450 for the iPad 9. A $150 price increase does not seem reasonable for the same storage, same pen and a non-laminated display. For this price increase, Apple should have bumped the base storage to 128 gb. on the iPad 10.
INFLATION
I went with the 10 because I DON'T use a pencil and the air gap isn't noticeable to me. Portability isn't an issue either, I'd rather use my phone in most cases. I wanted the front facing camera and the bigger screen because i'm a pilot and use foreflight and enjoy the bigger map display. I've had mini in the past and its slick and fun but its not as functional overall compared to a bigger tablet. Anyone saying it is has a VERY specific work idea for it imo.
EDIT: i had the 9 for a bit with the pencil and I don't know why people hate the idea that the 10 doesn't support the 2nd. I never needed to charge the pencil it seemed, it lasts forever and charges quickly. If you have a cover on the mini you can't charge it on the top anyway in some cases. Unless you're an artist or heavy pencil note taker its not a big deal
Sounds like you make a great choice for your needs.
I think people over estimate the need for a pencil. I use it as a drawing tool, but I don’t see why someone who doesn’t draw needs it. One of those cheap stylus can work as a pointer if that’s what you need.
@@sloppynyuszi Some people use it to take copious notes-they might be students, use it for work, or both, so the pencil would potentially get HOURS of use, even by someone who doesn’t draw (does doodling during meetings count?).
I’m not an artist, but do like having my pencil. I *had* an Apple Pencil, but it flew out of my mini case’s elastic loop when I pulled something else out of my shopping bag, and didn’t realize that the iPad mini would LEAP out w/ it (it was a semi-tight fit). 😮
I bought a replacement pencil, BUT it’s a generic one, and it suits my needs perfectly. 👌 The one I bought was $37, and it both stores AND charges magnetically against the iPad! I didn’t even know that that was on offer, but Amazon suggested the item to me-otherwise, I would’ve settled for one that charges w/ a USB-C cable.
At about 1/3 the cost of an Apple Pencil, I’d recommend it for people who want one, but don’t want to spend $130 on it.
btw, there are 3rd parties that sell their pen for iPad. I am using one for my iPad mini5 :)
I have a mini and still have an iPad 9th gen. I don’t use a pencil much, but can use the Logitech crayon in the rare event I feel like writing. Thankfully, there are also cheaper keyboards for iPad than the Magic Keyboard, whose price I can’t justify. Again, Logitech is my go-to. I’m not affiliated with them or compensated in any way-I think they just deliver a great product at more sane prices. I may trade my 9th gen at some point but may wait for the next/11th gen. If I need to type using the mini, I have a Bluetooth full size keyboard that works, but I normally use it for consumption as I use a regular laptop for work.
Great comparison 🔥
I bought the iPad mini 6 a couple of days ago, it is serving me the way I planned to use it for: reading , designing social media posts, consuming content, gaming.
Surprisingly the iPad mini 6 price in where i live (Iraq) is $440! (Brand new)
Hello, please, I have a question
What’s the iPad mini 6 like for graphic design?❤
@@view596
It’s pretty decent, I use Adobe Express for designing and it is good enough for an ipad. But you can’t do as much as you can do on PC
Which ipad storage u bought 64 or 256?
Another great comparison, thanks! I wish my mini 6 had the camera on the side like the iPad 10 does because for me that's its only flaw. The smaller size of the mini 6 is perfect for my use case, but if I wanted a larger iPad my preference these days would be an iPad Air.
Love love my iPad Air. I very rarely watch tv, but I do watch shows and movies on my iPad. I have iPad Pro (12.9-inch) (3rd generation). I also have a protective cover on it. It does have a crack on a corner but the cover is doing a great job of keeping it together.
That makes a lot of sense, Bryan. Thanks for watching!
Mini 6 all day; price sucks a little, but options and portability wise it’s awesome.
Well for me I love to use the iPad with an external monitor and the Apple keyboard and trackpad if I want a more desktop feel, and. Just unplug when I want to leave and use it as a iPad.
Also really love using my HomePod mini’s when watching TH-cam and movies.
Thanks so much for contributing.
I have iPad mini and iPad Pro - I hate the fact that iPad mini doesn’t look very bright. It’s 500 nits on paper but that’s a smaller surface area lighting up so my eyes perceive it as dim. I can barely see stuff during day time. My daughter has the last gen iPad and that screen gets blindingly bright compared to iPad mini.
Great input - thanks.
That’s definitely a notable CON for the iPad mini! The screen is never bright enough for outdoor use, and just barely enough for daytime use, if you’re near a window.
In India the cost get fluctuate as we go through different sites.
Amazon or Flipkart available
iPad 10 at ₹40,000 = $489 and
iPad mini at ₹46,000=$549 (approx)
I gonna get iPad 9 at ₹33,000=$399
Should I go through iPad 10 with this price
Hi! Should i buy ipad mini 6 or wait for mini 7 ?
@@sugarplum8888 I just gonna say that wait a bit for iPad mini 7. You won’t regret it later, yeah if iPad mini 7 is gonna launch after a year then probably go for mini 6. Use it for couple of years then switch to other ones. But don’t get iPad 10(warning)(Alert)…
I love the mini because it can fit into my handbag. It’s just so cute and you can do so much with it.
Thank you for this informative and helpful review!
So glad it was helpful. Thank you for being part of the channel 🙏🏻
super helpful, thank you so much for making this content
I’m now on my THIRD iPad mini (Gen. 2, 4, and now 6), and I ❤️ this form factor!
Not everyone will be able to do this, since it depends on their life circumstances, but I use the iPad mini 6 as my daily driver. I’m usually on wifi, so I don’t need a robust data plan, and bought Mint Mobile’s lowest one (4GB for $15/mo.).
I have Bluetooth headphones, so phone/video calls can be answered remotely. For my daily basic needs (email, calendar, reminders, podcasts, music, TH-cam, browser, photos, alarms, etc.), the iPad mini 6 can do it ALL!
What I love is that the screen is big enough to see most things that don’t require much detailed viewing, yet is light & portable (I’m a female who uses a smallish crossbody bag). I love not needing a smartphone! I have a 2-in-1 (HP Spectre), if I need a bigger screen and capabilities that this mini-tablet doesn’t possess.
For the right user, the iPad mini could easily be their go-to for potentially EVERYTHING, if possible. If Apple didn’t deliberately leave out certain features that one would have on a laptop, I’d just have a separate screen and keyboard to use it on a desktop.
tldr
@@tordb And yet still had the energy to comment. 👏 👌
(No dad or male role models growing up? 😂)
I mostly need the iPad for my business scheduling billing and content/ designs an I’m kind of torn between the two even with this info I’m not sure which to go with!
and which one did you finally choose?
I would point out that most people use the iPad mini in portrait mode, especially since there’s no first party keyboard for the device. I wouldn’t want Apple to move the camera to landscape since that would be weird.
Someone should recommend for gaming which would be best?
The selling points of this iPad (10th generation) for me were the landscaped front-facing camera, silver color-way option, and the braided cable-which all of these mentioned the iPad Air doesn't have. iPad Pro would have been too overkill for me and the iPad mini is way out of my league with its small form factor.
Makes a lot of sense.
Great video once again, tnx. What keyboard do you recommend on these newer iPads. I know you did a video on keyboards a while ago. Would that still be valid?
9:09 xray paper?
After seeing all the differences, I choose the ipad 10th generation cuz I prefer larger things.
As I live in Australia the 10th is $749 and the mini is around $830 base price
Which is better to use as notebook and book reading, and little bit media consumption?
10
Obviously the mini.
Are you still working on that iPad battery test comparison you were talking about?
If you want something that's easy to take with you and has a great display, then the iPad mini might be a better choice for you. On the other hand, if you want a bigger screen and something that's a bit more budget-friendly, then the 10th generation iPad could be the way to go. Ultimately, it's all about what works best for your needs and preferences! I got an iPad Air 5th Gen with a student offer.
In India 🇮🇳 , The iPad Mini starts at ₹49900 ($605.96) yikes!.. Whereas the iPad 10th Gen is about ₹44900 ($545.25). iPads are very overpriced here in India.
They sure are! I’m planning to buy my first ever iPad, and just seeing the prices is giving me a headache. And deciding which one to get is super confusing as well!
@@Geniekyu same here with me , I am confused with all three in India during sale difference between mini and 10th gen is 50$ and difference between air m1 and 10th gen is 100$ , I want a pencil too so these prices are extremely confusing 😂
@@NayagarhSensei I’ve just stopped thinking about it for now. Hopefully, in a month or two the prices will go down? 😭 I don’t really need a pencil but I’ve seen so many unboxing videos that it makes me want to have one so a cheap alternative will do the job I guess 😬
@@Geniekyu if you want it for drawing and editing and for content browsing ipad will do a better job, but for content browsing the cheap alternative will be better with those amoled screens.
Great Vid dude!... what console or device are you running for TMNT classic game at 12:13? thanks
Are anti-glare screen protectors effective on iPads?
I am from Italy. IPad mini basic start 659€, iPad 10 basic start 589€. Tanks for video. You are the best. Bye.
Thanks so much for the info and the kind words!
1:17 unironically got surprised when you used DBS:Broly footage for this lmao
I got a refurb iPad mini 6 for £479 from Apple... A couple of months back I could have bought a brand new one for that amount
Excellent review❗️
thank you for the review. helped me a lot
For a high school student, would the mini 6 be better than a budget windows laptop (that's roughly half the price 100 - $200). Minus all of the extra perks that the Mini can offer.
Hm it depends, is the mini going to be your main consumption device or a laptop replacement. If that’s the case you might need a bigger size.
@@jayyli7204 well I was curious bc the person already has the iPad but they're said they need the laptop for school work
id say go with a laptop, ipads cant do everything a laptop can do. they may be more convenient, but laptops have microsoft word and such, which is used a lot in school, where ipads do not
just go with the laptop, you're gonna need some software that might not available in ipad (in my experience), also, many task may not fits on tablet ability like interchange data with friends, editing documents with ease (some are not comfort using tablet)
I got a 10th-gen iPad with 256 GB, and I absolutely hated it. It felt like using a laptop screen, which I already have, so it just didn’t feel right. To be honest, it even felt a bit cheap. The next day, I went back and replaced it with a Mini 6, and I couldn’t be happier. The Mini 6 actually feels like a tablet-it’s lovely, has Apple’s AI, and overall, everything about it feels a bit better. That was my personal experience. I watched loads of reviews to try and pick the right one, but I initially failed. If you’re not planning to use your iPad as a laptop, I’d recommend getting the Mini.
whats the game ure playing at 1:24 ?
Thanks for watching. It’s Genshin Impact. Hope that helps.
I’m thinking of getting the iPad mini 6 for script work but I just wish that they had the iPad 10s pink
I’m from Mexico and the iPad 10 price converted to US dollars is around 600
A ratio between 4:3 and 3:2 is not possible for me in 2023. For any video we have huge black bars on the top and the bottom.
Seems to use a tablet from 2015.
how about jelly scrolling on ipad mini? is it solved?
I have the iPad 9 that works good for me the iPad 10 is nice but with only Apple Pencil 1 support and have to use a cable or dongle to charge that was the one main reason to skip it and wait for the iPad 11.
I appreciate you contributing, Jeremy.
Here in the UK, direct from Apple, the iPad 10 starts at £499 and the mini starts at £569, that's mopre than a $50 difference over here!
Thank you for the intel, Andy. That is a MUCH bigger difference.
@@TechGearTalk And the 10 with 256 and cellular is £859 and the mini to the same spec is £929
@@camerabag1510 now starts at £310
I have the mini 6 and the iPad Pro 12.9. Both are 256 WiFi & lte. I find myself using the mini about 90% of the time.
Do iPad 9 vs ,iPad 10 vs ,iPad Air 4 vs iPad Mini 6
Can i use it for sculpting in nomad sculp app? Can it run without lag?
My main reason for minis is resell value. Minis seem to hold their value much longer than standard iPads like the 10. Used iPad 10 sells for as much as a used iPad mini 5 while a used mini 6 still sells for as much as a new 10
Thank you. I choose the 10. Was gonna buy the mini until I watched this. Appreciate your hard work
So glad it was helpful. I appreciate you for being part of the channel!
Was a great vid i bought the i pad 10 btw can u share the links of the wallpapers ?
Both are portable. Both screens are OK. iPad 10 is cheaper, and has a larger screen. We already have a small screens in our phones. No brainer.
Whats ur advice for me i want it for gaming mostly pubg so for what i go the 10 or mini 6
Minni
Can you you tell where those homescreen wallpapers are from
Does anyone have experience with Scrivener on either the ipad 10 or mini 6?
I'm looking into an ipad for a more easily portable writing device. I used my phone (s23 Ultra), which was fine, but I've recently begun using Scrivener which has no android version. I think the mini would be fine - bigger than my phone but still fairly small - but my sister keeps telling me I will regret not having a bigger screen.
I have a ipad mini 4 so i never owned a bigger screen device i still don’t know what to choice
What is that paper he uses at 9:03?
I have the iPad mini. I watch movies, play games, take notes with the pencil with it. The reason why I'm looking at the iPad 10 is for the note taking. I love that is has a bigger screen for it. I looked at the Remarkable 2 but mehhhhhh...
Also, the fact that the Pencil 2 isn't compatible with iPad 10 is a bummer...
Any thoughts guys?
That’s what’s keeping me from getting it. I like things to be compatible since we’re all Apple in my family
Hi, here in Switzerland 🇨🇭the prices are 569 CHF (around 609$) for the iPad mini and 499 CHF (around 534$)for the iPad 10 - the taxes are included already in the prices here
I was doing some research for Ipad Mini. Just curious if its good for taking notes, watching movies and for content creator. I do still using my journal for taking notes but i need something paperless.
I have the Mini 6, and I think it’s the perfect size for what you’re looking for, and it’s super lightweight so perfect for on the go as well
I already buy the iPad mini 6 today I AM VERY EXCITED I waited 2 years this is GOOD for gaming since I am a gamer and student 🤩
The screen isnt to small? And have u tried procreate on it?
@@annaholme6537 yes drawing is soso but i recommend using a bigger screen for drawing since you get more room :)
Can you suggest ipad for kids apple
I would say the mini is better as it offers a better screen and cpu for just $50 more. I also don't particularly like using a large tablet, feels like a laptop.
Which would you recommend for writing (novels, articles etc) or website editing? Debating whether to get an iPad mini 6 to replace my laptop which I use for writing and web editing but don’t want to waste money on something that won’t exceed my expectations
I'm looking at the two for something similar. Since would work while riding in the car on a fairly regular basis, and he said you don't get a whole lot of extra content on the ipad (everything is larger), for me I think the mini would be the best fit, as it would be very easy to hold, and lighting/reflectivity from the windows could be more of an issue with the ipad 10.
However, the ipad with keyboard case could basically be a laptop, which would be great as well.
Did you end up getting one? How has it worked out for you?
Which I pad should I buy if my requirements are making notes and studying books?
Mini 6
the mini, because the ipad 10 is only compatible with the pencil first gen so you need an adapter
where can i find these wallpapers?!
Can I put sim card in iPad 10 and call?
No, that is not an option
And in ipad mini
great video as always! for my spouse and I, we decided on the ipad 10 because of screen size. the mini's screen size is too close to our iphones screen to justify carrying a seperate item that does the same thing. not to mention its more expensive than the ipad 10.
Thank you for the kind words and for sharing your decision-making process.
Amazing! Thanks
Can we have a link to your wallpaper?
I have a 1 question: What is the best ipad for gaming Ipad 10th gen or Ipad mini 6?(Please reply me)
as he claimed on previous videos on mini 6 he prefered it over regular and ipad air etc plus it has A15 bionic which is definitely Better.
i'm seriously consider trading my m2 11" for a mini 6... it gets a bit much holding this device all day lol
they're a lot heavier than tahn youtubers make it out to be
If the mini6 has all the features you need, GO FOR IT!! 👍 👍 👍
I love mine, and am on my third mini (had gen 2 & 4 before, now using 6).
I watched your video like 5 times or more and still don’t know wich one to get as I’m on a budget I can get a refurbished IPad mini for 400euro and an iPad 10 gen for 350euro. So my question is wich one to get!?😅 I’m back and forth as I don't really know as it's my first time getting and iPad as l'm a singer I need a device that plays my backing tracks while I'm singing as I don't want to bring my MacBook all the time as it's big and heavy and may break due to audience dancing at my shows so on.
And I would love to try start to learn drawing and make notes and plan my days with it. So it's not for long travels just to my hotel venues. So I’m not sure wich of the 2 would be best as I’m worried the iPad mini is too small but it supports Apple Pencil 2 wich I like. What would you recommend? Please help 😅❤️🙏😩 Thank you so much your videos really help.
Which ipad is the best in gaming Ipad 10.9 or ipad 6 mini?
mmm good question...i have buy 2 ipadas one 10.9 and 6 mini togheter
great video thanks
initially bought an ipad mini for reading but now with a decent case and handstrap i prefer my 12.9” ipad because the screen is so much better.
I actually bought the 10 first, but realized what I actually wanted was a laptop. I thought it was too cumbersome, and although it was cool, I ended up not liking it much. I swapped it for the mini and haven’t looked back. Love the mini way more than the 10. It’s just way more portable and doesn’t try to be a laptop. I do think it was way too expensive though 😅
Thank you for watching. I’m super glad that you got something that works well for you. CONGRATS!!!
Where I from both cost 3k but for the extra gb they will cost about 5k
Which is the car game that he plays in the end?
I am thinking to get one but still confuse … should I get the regular iPad 10th or mini … I like mini cuz it fit everywhere but is like an big phone but iPad is just kinda big but I want both - any idea ?
iPad mini 6. The iPad for most of us. Portable enough to carry, enough screen to beat any phone for media consumption.
in DE ipad mini 6 starts at 600eur. thats ridicolous , as eur is more worth it should even be cheaper.
Can you please make a video with ipad pro(11inch) vs ipad air vs samsung tab s8 (11inch)
My aunts and uncles would much prefer the iPad 10 over the iPad mini not only has the iPad mini is around $200 more but because the iPhone 10 has a larger display
Makes sense.
Changing my mini for the 10. On,y use it for emails and media content so the big screen is a plus for me. I don’t game or use photo shop type apps. Maybe use to make some teams calls so the landscape mounted selfie cam is a huge plus.
I have the mini 5 and I just got the 10th gen for a discounted price £380 and I’m happy. I get a bigger screen and still get to use the pencil however I will need to get an adapter. The mini 5 just runs out so fast and while I did want the mini 6 the price is absolutely abysmal. Apple overprice things a lot but I’m happy with the deal here.
