    I use my iPad mini 5 as the main entertainment system in my car. I removed the factory system and built a custom one around the Mini. I started with the Mini 2 and then upgraded tothe 4 and now the 5. Unfortunately, because I built a custom bezel for my dash, the newer Mini's won't fit so I'm stuck with my 5 for the time being unless I want to make another custom bezel. It's also my travel companion when I fly Southwest. It's perfect for watching the live TV stream.

    The fact that this iPad mini 5 is sluggish on the latest software is proof that Apple slows down their old devices on purpose.
    The A12 chip is still insanely powerful, and should be able to run iOS 17 without any issues whatsoever!
    And btw. iPads do not have the “function” where it slows down the CPU as the battery age. So that excuse does not hold here either.

      It’s not sluggish it just looks it, I think because we’re so used to 120hz pannels as soon as you go back to 60hz it feels slow but things still load quick with mine, even in comparison to my M2 Pro 16” MacBook it’s not too far behind in terms of pure loading webpages etc

    What's weird though is that the mini 5 was supposed to get back-to-back Siri requests as per foot notes in the iPadOS 17 page, but it never worked on it. On the other hand, it does support the just "Siri" wake word. Also, it does have interactive widgets (try Reminders for exemple).

    I’ve been waiting VERY impatiently for the next Generation, but it’s looking less and less likely that Apple will be releasing it any time soon.
    Having watched another creator suggest that we all go out and get a 6th Gen, instead of waiting for the 7th, I actually got as far as pricing them, and finding out how much I’d get for my 5th Gen. After saying that, I THINK I’ll be sticking with it ‘til the new ones finally come out.

    I still have my iPad Mini 5, its not used much but on the odd occasion I do pick it up I’m still surprised at how well it’s keeping up. Now it’s not blazing fast, especially as my main two devices are a M2 Pro 16” MacBook and an iPhone 14PM both with 120hz so animations look choppy but for its age it keeps up well, and tbh it makes me want to get a newer mini as it’s a great size when I’m on the sofa and don’t want my big ass MacBook but a bigger screen than the iPhone. But day to day usage feels fine if you can find one cheap I’d get one.

    Nicely timed update.I've never had the mini and with the mini 7 on the horizon I decided to buy the 5 just to see if I would like a mini iPad rather than splash out a fortune on a new one.I picked one up on ebay for £130 and it is in superb condition and despite having the latest iPad Pro this has hardly left my hands so I shall definitely be watching out for the 7!I'm also a hoarder,just can't let go,still got me iPad 2 even though it can barely run things,I use it for reading books.I have an 2012 macbook pro running sonoma thanks to those genius's at open core also an early 2013 running ventura-for some reason that keeps turning off at 49% even though battery shows normal at less than 500 cycles-I'll have fun trying to sort that out.

    Good video. I've had the iPad mini 5 for five years and I'm still happily using it regularly for content consumption. I held off buying the mini 6 hoping Apple would fix the jelly scrolling effect, but that didn't happen. I will buy an iPad mini 7 if they fix that issue and give it a nice spec bump. Until then, the iPad mini 5 soldiers on.
