Yes it was very helpful video👍 I went ahead and ordered the iPad9 since im on a budget but I did max out the storage to 256 also I still get excited about the 3 mm headphone jack and about the new camera with center stage! I’m enjoying my new IPad especially the bigger screen , even tho it’s a little hard to hold without a case waiting on that ….great videos keep up the good work
I got my iPad 9 yesterday and I’m in love. This is my first iPad ever and I went back and forth of what iPad to get and I ultimately decided on the 9. I’m glad I did because it’s perfect for my use cases and the more expensive ones were overkill for me. The mini was just too small for what I wanted out of a tablet.
The mini is basically so you can use the second gen pencil on the go as an compliment to your job, eg pilot, engineer? Etc, also extremely portable so more of a companion all day where as other ipads will be used at home or on a stand.
Ipad mini is definitely for portability. I need to bring my work everywhere and the size of the ipad mini fits my purse. I can’t go back to the regular sized iPad,; I have my mac air to do the rest of my office reqmts.
I went with the iPad mini 6 because I loved the small and powerful form factor. My first iPad that I am upgrading from was an iPad 4th gen which over the years it had been getting a lot slower and less usable but still works. I think it will be a really nice upgrade for watching movies or reading books, taking notes and drawing etc.
@@idkyiexist3534 what!! She said iPad 4th gen and also even if she was, iPhone X isn’t n bad lol it’s only a few years old and most people don’t upgrade for every new iPhone or ipad

I love my iPad 9. It does whatever I need for it to do & it's a great productivity device. Plus, my Logitech Combo Touch keyboard I used with my iPad Air 3 works just fine with it.
I had a mini 4 for many years. I recently replaced it with the iPad 9. One thing I had trouble with the mini was reading graphic novels on iBooks. I decided to get the larger screen (for $170 less). I really don’t use the pencil so bigger screen and less $$ sold it for me. And I’ve totally enjoyed the 9 for weeks now.
@@saurabhmuneshwar I found it better for all reading. Standard books were fine. The big improvement was with graphic novels like Watchmen or Kingdom Come. The larger page provides a better view of the artwork.
The mini is something you have to realize you need. It’s the same feeling you’ll get when choosing between an iPad Pro 11 and a 12.9. Most people will go for the 11 and then realize they need a 12.9 1 year later. Honestly my mini is slowly but surely replacing my 11 pro 😞 I’m neglecting it because the mini fits in my pocket 😂
I got the mini and love it. In my opinion, this is the ideal size a tablet should be. Like a notepad or paperback book, it’s my primary device for pretty much everything like note taking, sketching, watching movies, gaming and reading books. I use my 11 iPad Pro as a laptop now with the Smart Keyboard for work. My phone is only used for when I leave the house and for taking pics now.
@@tanvi5378 it's absolutely fantastic for note taking and reading . U know how.. cuz it's not very big and is a bit bigger than a kindle tablet. Mini is kinda smaller for using Ms excel and display could feel smaller for using editing video editing software's etc .

@@peonies- I got really lucky and found one in mint condition at a pawn shop for 350, then bought a second hand apple pencil 2 for 60, I'll say the girlfriend has been very pleased, I can't get her off the thing 😭😭
Buy it nice, or buy it twice. Man I love your reviews. Chock full of the details I need. Truth be told, I will get the mini first and yet will eventually end up with the other one too as I upgrade several iPads.
Great video, really enjoyed the clear, concise, explanations of the differences, a nonpartisan approach, and a great summarisation at the end. Wish there were more channels as honest, straight, and gimmick-free as yours. Thank you.
Upgrading from an iPad Mini 4 64GB to the iPad Mini 6 256GB and getting a $140 trade-in value on the 4? Yep, I did the upgrade. It's worth it in my book. Plus the Mini fits perfectly in the top of my lunch box.
@@StreetSmrtNtrmt same bro me too my first apple products no lagging good experience, security, value for money but camera is bad 😭 but overall I don't use camera very much that's why its best for me 👍😀❤️
One issue I had which led me to finally sell my Mini 6 is that so many applications do not allow text size to increase. While surfing for news, etc, the tiny text size was just too small to read without straining.
I picked up the Mini 6 to use with a DJI Mini 2 as the controller display, I’ve been using it for way way more than that though. Love the size and the portability. Fits in a coat pocket. I have an M1 11” Pro, and use that for most things, but now I’ve got a little one to do other things on while I’m watching TH-cam.
I also am looking at the Mini 6 to use with my Mavic 2 instead of my iPhone 11 Pro Max. I use my IPad Pro with my Phantom 4 and while the tablet extender I have for the Mini 2 will fit the full size iPad, it’s just too big for the controller.
As a pilot i actually enjoy a bigger screen so I got the 9th gen. Not just for flying but for a macbook supplement (not replacement). Seeing the map and information on the same screen when you split it is so nice as a pilot and you can't really do that as well with the mini.
@@SirMopy cessna/archer. I thought it would too but it was fine on the yoke. Now I keep it on my lap and split screen it and have my iPhone suctioned to the window at eye level. The 2 together is perfect
i'm a student in faculty of medicine and i am struggling with choose one of them. i am going to take a lot of notes with apple pencil. ipad mini 6 is better with charging apple pencil, ipad 9 is better with taking notes easily with bigger screen. i need your opinion, pls :)
I love my new mini. Like obsessed honestly. I rarely use my iphone at home anymore. I specifically got it to use as a "kindle" and take with me in settings where my 12.9 pro can't come. I use my 12.9 pro for lecture notes and hw. I actually bought the ipad air and returned it because it wasn't small enough.
Does anyone know if it's true that you can't use an external SSD or a powered hub on an ipad 9 because it's Lightning instead of USB-c? I've heard the SSD won't work even with a lightning to usb converter... At the moment this is the only thing holding me back from the 9...
It does support external ssd. The problem is, that if your ssd needs too much watt that it won't work. You can watch on this yt channel the video for ipad 8 and ssd compatibility. I assume that there won't be too big differences :)
Yes, Eric, it will work with a powered USB hub. The Lightning port by itself cannot otherwise put out enough power (a high enough current) to power certain external drives.
I've owned all the mini range so far (except 3) and I just love their portability. I have two laptops of different sizes, so my iPad is just for media consumption and not productivity. If I did need an iPad for productivity, I would be looking at other larger options for sure. I love that I can pack my mini into my laptop/travel bag and not even notice the weight. The size is perfect for gaming too as it doesn't become cumbersome to hold after extended use. My mini 5 which was extremely well looked after just had an LCD failure (power adapter went a few months ago too). It's over €200 to fix it, so I decided just to buy the next gen mini instead. Hope the new one lasts a bit longer!
Hey man, I trying to raise some money to get the iPhone 13 mini because my phone is damaged and need a new phone asap to do my work, is there any service I can help you with like logo design, origami teaching and anything else?
Have u had mini 4? I’m not sure if I want the mini 4 or 9th generation…. Do u think the mini will be supported by apple longer or will it ‘’die out’’ soon?
@@ida-mariekaldbekken5929 Yep, I had the mini 4 but it is a couple of generations old now. It is still supported and can run the latest system software (OS 15), but I would be looking at the 9th gen if you are not bothered by the screen size.
Nice vieo, thanks After nearly 3 years with the iPad Pro 10.5 from 2017 I switched last year to the ipad mini 5, but only to realize after a few weeks, that the 7.9 screen was quiet to small. Checking the new mini 6 at a local dealer, I decided to get it. And I'm very happy. it's amazing what an extra 0.4 inch of display can do...Love it...
Watching this on my ipad mini 6! Got an ipad last 2017 but the mini fits for me, the size is just enough for me, i find the bigger ipad to be too bulky for my edc. Im inlove with this!
Got to tell you - be careful with those laminated screens. As nice as they are - I have had TWO of my iPads that had that feature eventually develop one - or more - bright white spots on the display -that does not come off. Not sure how common it us but if you research online - or even look at iPads on eBay - you will see this is more common than we probably thought! I went with the iPad 9 with that old classic display- sure the design is a little boring I guess - but none of my previous iPads with that design had any display issues at all!
Bought the iPad 9 yesterday, one thing interesting for gamers: it didn't dim the brightness while playing PubG Mobile (without connected charger). On my Air 3, the 6th gen iPad and my iPhone 12 it always dimmed after a while due to iOS heat management. Haven't tried it while charging yet.
I agree, the iPad mini is way too small. it's hard to write with it honestly. I was using it at the apple store and it was so hard to write with..... I mean maybe if you were really into books and wanted to read them on the mini then thats okay I guess but it's not good for taking notes which is what I thought it would be good for. Its just way too small. Having a smaller screen isn't an upgrade.
I keep jumping between these two and ipad air.... and I've been leaning towards the air.... plan on getting the pencil, drawing a lot, maybe gaming, and a lot of watching movies. I also want something I can take a picture with and draw over it sketching out ideas to express my creativity better at work for sharing ideas.
Non laminated displays mean A LOT if your proned to dropping your ipad. Much cheaper to replaces the glass on the ipad 9 vs the entire display on the mini 6
You should buy basing on your purpose or intent of usage. Both are great devices but I think it serves different purposes. I think the Ipad Mini 6 is great for entertainment/leisure. I got the Ipad Mini 6 and I use it mainly for gaming and watching shows and movies. It is the perfect size for playing since it fits your hand greatly, navigation is so easy. It is also perfect for watching movies for me since I mainly watch laying down on my bed. Meanwhile I think the Ipad 9th Gen is perfect for work or studying purposes. The larger display is great for attending online meetings and classes, great for taking notes and reading ebooks.
what would you recommend me to get ipad 9th or mini 6?,basically im a student and wanna use it for some gaming too,for school like online classes and powerpoint.
My reasons for getting an iPad 9 in 2023 does reveal my age a bit…being semi-retired I could afford the 256GB model, meaning I could finally copy over my complete iTunes music library, something I was unable to do on the 32/64GB iPhones I’ve been using in recent years (guess it also means I’m a bit of a cheapskate…). I also like having the option for wired audio, and I needed the packed in charger to use with my iPhone 12 Mini, which is still rocking a Lightning-port like the iPad…so there you go!
@@ArchangelTyrael its weird the new pros didnt get an apple pencil 3, but the air and mini now have a similar design to the pros the rest of the accesories will follow soon for the ipad line up.
I recently purchased a iPad Pro 10.5 inch for my kids with the 120 hz display. It’s a little older but for $379 refurbished from apple it has a lot of features for a good price. I still have the OG iPad Pro 12.9 inch and it is still going strong. It seems like that extra RAM makes a big difference.
2 years later, I’m asking the same question (iPad 10th gen is not even a consideration for the price and lack of upgrades). I bought a mini 6. As much as I like it, I’m just not in love with it. It’s convenient, it’s powerful, it’s more future-proof than the iPad 9. But it just doesn’t suit my needs at the price tag. I never thought I’d have buyer’s remorse for such a wonderful product. Switching to a iPad 9. And happy with the Apple pencil 1, plethora of large size keyboard cases, audio Jack (can listen to headphones while charging simultaneously), bigger screen, etc. just fit my personal needs better. In 2024…I’m sure I’ll get 2 years out of the 3gb Ram and A13 processor with the resource hogging and slowness each iOS update introduces. But when it’s on sale, it makes it easier to swallow than a 6 mini (still an awesome machine). Buy the product you *need* not the product you think you need to get because it’s a better value.
Just got the iPad 6 mini and I love it. It's the 64G/5G model (that was the only one available from a store near by me). Let me start with the only disappointment and thing I don't like, the fingerprint ID power button. I guess I did not do my research and just assumed this had Face ID like my iPhone and iPad Pro. It just seems a bit more cumbersome to unlock than my previous mini with the home button (I realize there's no room for a home button here). With that out of the way, everything else is gold. I don't need the extra storage of the 256G model. I use this iPad when I go places where I'll have time to websurf, read etc. I also love it for note taking. The vastly improved Apple Notes app has gotten me to give up 1Note and I'm now in the process of trying to figure out how to transition all my notes to Apple notes (hint: it ain't easy). I already had an Apple Pencil II for my pro, so I can just move it from tablet to tablet as needed. I keep it in a Fintle case I got off Amazon for $15 (it looks like an old Composition Notebook). The case has a nice place for the pencil up against the charging side. It also lets the iPad sit flat on a surface to write on so you're not flopping around on that giant camera bulge. I'm sure I could have lived without the 5G cellular but as mentioned in the video the WiFi only model does not have GPS and I really like clamping this iPad in my Jeep. It's a much better navigation aid than the built in 8" display (which does use CarPlay). Other than the fingerprint ID issue, this iPad is perfect for me. We just ordered the iPad 9 for my daughter for school use. Right now she's using my old Mini 5 and I'd be very surprised if she decides to keep the 9. I think the size of this one is much better.
Actually non laminated display is better, as when it breaks most of the time it's only the upper glass that's broken and can be replaced very easily and is way cheaper than replacing the entire display.
Since you are a camera fan, I imagine you use editing apps like Lightroom and Photoshop. Do you think either the iPad mini 6 or the iPad 9 would be able to handle it?
I have iPad Air, iPad Mini, Regular iPad and iPad Pro and I love all of them 😅 I can’t decide and I had to get all of them. I use iPad Mini as a portable device, iPad Air as a laptop with my magic keyboard, iPad Pro for my art stuff and regular iPad as a regular iPad lol
I bought an iPad Mini Celular- 8 years ago. I did not like it for browsing - I use my 14" laptop for that. I use my Mini almost exclusively when I travel for the following: #1- as a GPS unit in the car - the best GPS ever! As your pilot viewers pointed out. #2 - as a Sidecar or mirror screen to view video a/w my laptop on the road #3 - & as an eReader Overall these years that is about all I have used the mini for (I don't game) I will likely buy the new Mini 6 as my old one is on its last leg.

I’ve been watching your videos on a daily basis! Waiting for the 2022 iPad Air but I’m planning to get my mom an iPad 9 or iPad Mini and this video is really helpful.
This was a great video for me, got me thinking about the base model iPad. Unfortunately for me the absence of a USB-C connector was the deal breaker. Instead I went with a used Air 4 in mint condition. Apple should bite the bullet and fit all their devices with USB-C bringing them to a wider market.

It's called jelly scroll, and it only happens in portrait mode with the ipad mini, which is a problem because that's how most people will use it because of its size. If you personally can't see it until you really look for it, then it's not an issue. However, don't go looking for it if you can't see it because you can't really unsee it.
I have the ipad mini 6. Honestly it's not noticable. If you scroll really fast then it'll happen but it's minor. Definitely won't ruin your user experience.
I had a kindle reader back when the iPad first came out, and I bought the iPad immediately, but when the mini finally came out I bought it and never went back. I’ve looked at the larger iPads again and again, and they just don’t offer enough to make me switch
Love your videos. I haven’t bought an iPad in years. I have an iPad mini 4 which I still use but vertical lines have started to appear on the screen so now I want to buy a new iPad. Apart from being on a tight budget, I also think I’d like to try a bigger display. Do you think I’d find the display on the IPad 9 just as good as the iPad mini 4 or better? Thanks.
I got my ipad 9th gen recently and.. i was gonna get the mini or the 9th gen. What made me choose the 9th gen is that the screen is bigger so its very helpful for students i def reccomend it
If I want it only for reading and pdf annotation with goodnotes, which one to choose ? Are the pincels the same when it comes to writing and highlighting ?
I'm so confused right now over which ipad to buy because the comment section is filled with praises for the iPads and this makes it harder for me to pick😭😹💔 I want a big screen for digital art and becuase it's convenient but then I want a smaller iPad which can fit everywhere and I can play on it comfortably
Honestly I have an Iphone 8 Plus which has 4K 60fps ability, takes FAR better photos than any Ipad will, has a lot more features, and really you can't tell a difference in them at all, just the size. I'm debating on keeping the Ipad 9 or not because I just don't find it that useful, facetiming is very fuzzy, and neither camera on the 9 is very good. The wireless drops pretty easily and I haven't had problems on any of my PC's, gaming systems etc. Also the sound is loud, but honestly not nearly as loud as my phone or even my fathers Samsung Tablet. Also it's bulky, and just reminds me of a giant phone that i can't use outside of my wireless area, and probably wouldn't either. I'd choose a conventional laptop, which I have two of. Of maybe even a Chromebook. Lastly the speed on the 9 seems no different than my GF's Ipad 8, it's not INSTANT as he says in the video, but somethings are fast (enough). For $329 I just can't recommend this is you've already spend nearly $1000 or less on a nice Iphone. I rarely see people use Ipads, other than my mother who is bed ridden. Other than that, 99% of everyone I see are always on their phone(s). For EVERYTHING. So unless you're hardcore (as the video says) there's really on reason for any ipad. Honestly I use my Dell Gaming PC for pretty much EVERYTHING I do, or my laptop as I said. But these are just my thoughts. I can spend that kind of money on other things of use. But they're good for the people who like them. Great VIDEO btw, very informative!!
I'm an online seller and I have never use any apple products. I need an ipad that could take a very quality photo/video for my products, editing, etc, and I need an ipad that suit my liking such as drawing on ibis/procreate, writing a novel, watch anime and gaming. So I'm thinking to get the mini one. Was it a right decision? Mainly the purpose to buy an ipad is for my business. I hope anyone of u can help me clear my mind on this. Thankyou

As someone who is gonna get their first iPad for Procreate, TH-cam and netflix, and wanting the headphone jack, I think the 9 will be perfect :))
Or the air 4
@@PhobicGamingGroup I don't think that has a headphone jack? And also for the stuff that I use it for, I don't think I'd need something that much more expensive haha but the air 4 is sure a beauty!

Buy it nice, or buy it twice. Man I love your reviews. Chock full of the details I need. Truth be told, I will get the mini first and yet will eventually end up with the other one too as I upgrade several iPads.
Great video, really enjoyed the clear, concise, explanations of the differences, a nonpartisan approach, and a great summarisation at the end. Wish there were more channels as honest, straight, and gimmick-free as yours. Thank you.
Oh wow - thank you so much for the kind feedback. I appreciate you being part of the channel!
Upgrading from an iPad Mini 4 64GB to the iPad Mini 6 256GB and getting a $140 trade-in value on the 4? Yep, I did the upgrade. It's worth it in my book. Plus the Mini fits perfectly in the top of my lunch box.

Did you purchased it from apple online store India ?
Watching this on my iPad mini. Love it. Works perfect for what I need.
One issue I had which led me to finally sell my Mini 6 is that so many applications do not allow text size to increase. While surfing for news, etc, the tiny text size was just too small to read without straining.
I was waiting for this comparison. Finally, thanks for doing it 😭
Hope you enjoyed it! Thanks for being part of the channel!
Yes thanks 🙏
I picked up the Mini 6 to use with a DJI Mini 2 as the controller display, I’ve been using it for way way more than that though. Love the size and the portability. Fits in a coat pocket. I have an M1 11” Pro, and use that for most things, but now I’ve got a little one to do other things on while I’m watching TH-cam.
I also am looking at the Mini 6 to use with my Mavic 2 instead of my iPhone 11 Pro Max. I use my IPad Pro with my Phantom 4 and while the tablet extender I have for the Mini 2 will fit the full size iPad, it’s just too big for the controller.
I am so excited 😆 I got the iPad 9 it will help me a lot playing games and taking notes will be useful thing for me the 256GB. Thx Sagi
Such a spoiler
As a pilot i actually enjoy a bigger screen so I got the 9th gen. Not just for flying but for a macbook supplement (not replacement). Seeing the map and information on the same screen when you split it is so nice as a pilot and you can't really do that as well with the mini.
weird that your bigger screen is not covering transponder or other instruments………. wanna know what type u flyin
@@SirMopy cessna/archer. I thought it would too but it was fine on the yoke. Now I keep it on my lap and split screen it and have my iPhone suctioned to the window at eye level. The 2 together is perfect
i'm a student in faculty of medicine and i am struggling with choose one of them. i am going to take a lot of notes with apple pencil. ipad mini 6 is better with charging apple pencil, ipad 9 is better with taking notes easily with bigger screen. i need your opinion, pls :)
Get the iPad 9 ...
i got iPad Air 5 but thnx ^^
Loving my iPad 9. Didn’t see it making sense to pay more for less screen. Though having the new design and A15 would be nice.
64 or 256gb? Which one do you recommend?

I use my 12.9 pro for lecture notes and hw. I actually bought the ipad air and returned it because it wasn't small enough.

I've been thinking of getting a mini for reading on the go how do you like it so far? Do you prefer reading on a kindle or on a ipad?
watching this from my iPad 9!!
Does anyone know if it's true that you can't use an external SSD or a powered hub on an ipad 9 because it's Lightning instead of USB-c? I've heard the SSD won't work even with a lightning to usb converter... At the moment this is the only thing holding me back from the 9...
It does support external ssd. The problem is, that if your ssd needs too much watt that it won't work. You can watch on this yt channel the video for ipad 8 and ssd compatibility. I assume that there won't be too big differences :)
@@MT-ry8gv my plan was using a powered USB hub, like people have been doing with the mini/air/pro, but idk if it works... WIll check out the video
Yes, Eric, it will work with a powered USB hub. The Lightning port by itself cannot otherwise put out enough power (a high enough current) to power certain external drives.
Thanks for adding the closed captions on your review! Very helpful for hearing impaired!!!
I’m so glad they are helpful!!! Thank you for being part of the channel!
I've owned all the mini range so far (except 3) and I just love their portability. I have two laptops of different sizes, so my iPad is just for media consumption and not productivity. If I did need an iPad for productivity, I would be looking at other larger options for sure. I love that I can pack my mini into my laptop/travel bag and not even notice the weight. The size is perfect for gaming too as it doesn't become cumbersome to hold after extended use. My mini 5 which was extremely well looked after just had an LCD failure (power adapter went a few months ago too). It's over €200 to fix it, so I decided just to buy the next gen mini instead. Hope the new one lasts a bit longer!
Hey man, I trying to raise some money to get the iPhone 13 mini because my phone is damaged and need a new phone asap to do my work, is there any service I can help you with like logo design, origami teaching and anything else?
Have u had mini 4? I’m not sure if I want the mini 4 or 9th generation…. Do u think the mini will be supported by apple longer or will it ‘’die out’’ soon?
@@ida-mariekaldbekken5929 Yep, I had the mini 4 but it is a couple of generations old now. It is still supported and can run the latest system software (OS 15), but I would be looking at the 9th gen if you are not bothered by the screen size.
It's funny seeing all of your constant hand gestures.
I was regretting of small size before but battery durability and everything speedy soothes me… happy with mini
Nice vieo, thanks
After nearly 3 years with the iPad Pro 10.5 from 2017 I switched last year to the ipad mini 5, but only to realize after a few weeks,
that the 7.9 screen was quiet to small. Checking the new mini 6 at a local dealer, I decided to get it.
And I'm very happy. it's amazing what an extra 0.4 inch of display can do...Love it...
Watching this on my ipad mini 6! Got an ipad last 2017 but the mini fits for me, the size is just enough for me, i find the bigger ipad to be too bulky for my edc. Im inlove with this!
Great review. Thank you for pointing out the difference of laminated display. I always wondered if it matters.
Got to tell you - be careful with those laminated screens.
As nice as they are - I have had TWO of my iPads that had that feature eventually develop one - or more - bright white spots on the display -that does not come off.
Not sure how common it us but if you research online - or even look at iPads on eBay - you will see this is more common than we probably thought!
I went with the iPad 9 with that old classic display- sure the design is a little boring I guess - but none of my previous iPads with that design had any display issues at all!
@@johnrigs6540 thanks for this info. I'll look into it
Bought the iPad 9 yesterday, one thing interesting for gamers: it didn't dim the brightness while playing PubG Mobile (without connected charger). On my Air 3, the 6th gen iPad and my iPhone 12 it always dimmed after a while due to iOS heat management. Haven't tried it while charging yet.
I really enjoyed your review. You are a good speaker, factual, neither lurid nor boring. Keep up the good work!
The ipad mini is sold out everywhere 🥺
I agree, the iPad mini is way too small. it's hard to write with it honestly. I was using it at the apple store and it was so hard to write with..... I mean maybe if you were really into books and wanted to read them on the mini then thats okay I guess but it's not good for taking notes which is what I thought it would be good for. Its just way too small. Having a smaller screen isn't an upgrade.
Differently the big iPad 9 the basic smart device goes well with the iPhone XR
I keep jumping between these two and ipad air.... and I've been leaning towards the air.... plan on getting the pencil, drawing a lot, maybe gaming, and a lot of watching movies. I also want something I can take a picture with and draw over it sketching out ideas to express my creativity better at work for sharing ideas.
Non laminated displays mean A LOT if your proned to dropping your ipad. Much cheaper to replaces the glass on the ipad 9 vs the entire display on the mini 6
You mean, non laminated display of ipad 9 costs less if breaks than ipad mini laminated
@@sidducsyes bro
Love my mini 6 !
It’s nice for Lumafusion & iMovie 👍🏼
You should buy basing on your purpose or intent of usage. Both are great devices but I think it serves different purposes. I think the Ipad Mini 6 is great for entertainment/leisure. I got the Ipad Mini 6 and I use it mainly for gaming and watching shows and movies. It is the perfect size for playing since it fits your hand greatly, navigation is so easy. It is also perfect for watching movies for me since I mainly watch laying down on my bed. Meanwhile I think the Ipad 9th Gen is perfect for work or studying purposes. The larger display is great for attending online meetings and classes, great for taking notes and reading ebooks.
what would you recommend me to get ipad 9th or mini 6?,basically im a student and wanna use it for some gaming too,for school like online classes and powerpoint.
What about for a spin bike doing classes ipad 9 or mini 6?
@@hafiyhijazi7145 go for Air 4
Can’t wait to see the video editing comparison and rendering speed 👍
My reasons for getting an iPad 9 in 2023 does reveal my age a bit…being semi-retired I could afford the 256GB model, meaning I could finally copy over my complete iTunes music library, something I was unable to do on the 32/64GB iPhones I’ve been using in recent years (guess it also means I’m a bit of a cheapskate…). I also like having the option for wired audio, and I needed the packed in charger to use with my iPhone 12 Mini, which is still rocking a Lightning-port like the iPad…so there you go!
3:09 in your previous iPad 9 video you said that it has an sRGB display, now you say it has a P3 display...i am a little confused
Kinda dumb that the base iPad doesn’t support the new apple pencil.
Not at all.
@@xd-qi6ry Yes it is. Made at the same time. Annoying like how they push you towards the 256gb model by leaving out the 128gb model.

I recently purchased a iPad Pro 10.5 inch for my kids with the 120 hz display. It’s a little older but for $379 refurbished from apple it has a lot of features for a good price. I still have the OG iPad Pro 12.9 inch and it is still going strong. It seems like that extra RAM makes a big difference.

2 years later, I’m asking the same question (iPad 10th gen is not even a consideration for the price and lack of upgrades).
I bought a mini 6. As much as I like it, I’m just not in love with it. It’s convenient, it’s powerful, it’s more future-proof than the iPad 9. But it just doesn’t suit my needs at the price tag. I never thought I’d have buyer’s remorse for such a wonderful product. Switching to a iPad 9. And happy with the Apple pencil 1, plethora of large size keyboard cases, audio Jack (can listen to headphones while charging simultaneously), bigger screen, etc. just fit my personal needs better. In 2024…I’m sure I’ll get 2 years out of the 3gb Ram and A13 processor with the resource hogging and slowness each iOS update introduces. But when it’s on sale, it makes it easier to swallow than a 6 mini (still an awesome machine).
Buy the product you *need* not the product you think you need to get because it’s a better value.
It's only English tech channel I watch because I can clearly understand the way he seak so much clear
You got me there on the last part. 🙂 I like this video, it's very helpful. 👍
Just got the iPad 6 mini and I love it. It's the 64G/5G model (that was the only one available from a store near by me). Let me start with the only disappointment and thing I don't like, the fingerprint ID power button. I guess I did not do my research and just assumed this had Face ID like my iPhone and iPad Pro. It just seems a bit more cumbersome to unlock than my previous mini with the home button (I realize there's no room for a home button here). With that out of the way, everything else is gold. I don't need the extra storage of the 256G model. I use this iPad when I go places where I'll have time to websurf, read etc. I also love it for note taking. The vastly improved Apple Notes app has gotten me to give up 1Note and I'm now in the process of trying to figure out how to transition all my notes to Apple notes (hint: it ain't easy). I already had an Apple Pencil II for my pro, so I can just move it from tablet to tablet as needed. I keep it in a Fintle case I got off Amazon for $15 (it looks like an old Composition Notebook). The case has a nice place for the pencil up against the charging side. It also lets the iPad sit flat on a surface to write on so you're not flopping around on that giant camera bulge. I'm sure I could have lived without the 5G cellular but as mentioned in the video the WiFi only model does not have GPS and I really like clamping this iPad in my Jeep. It's a much better navigation aid than the built in 8" display (which does use CarPlay). Other than the fingerprint ID issue, this iPad is perfect for me.
We just ordered the iPad 9 for my daughter for school use. Right now she's using my old Mini 5 and I'd be very surprised if she decides to keep the 9. I think the size of this one is much better.
I have the iPad 9 but didn’t pick it myself, received this as a birthday gift and I’m very happy with it.
i am using ipad 9th gen and my sister is using ipad mini 6 she said she liked the ipad 9th gen in a lot of reasons
Actually non laminated display is better, as when it breaks most of the time it's only the upper glass that's broken and can be replaced very easily and is way cheaper than replacing the entire display.
Since you are a camera fan, I imagine you use editing apps like Lightroom and Photoshop. Do you think either the iPad mini 6 or the iPad 9 would be able to handle it?
Probably the iPad mini 6
I got the purple 256 GB one and it is safe to say it's the best tablet I've ever used.
I have iPad Air, iPad Mini, Regular iPad and iPad Pro and I love all of them 😅 I can’t decide and I had to get all of them.
I use iPad Mini as a portable device, iPad Air as a laptop with my magic keyboard, iPad Pro for my art stuff and regular iPad as a regular iPad lol
This is what I've been waiting for!!! Thank you 😍❤️
Hope you like it MJ!
I bought an iPad Mini Celular- 8 years ago. I did not like it for browsing - I use my 14" laptop for that.
I use my Mini almost exclusively when I travel for the following:
#1- as a GPS unit in the car - the best GPS ever! As your pilot viewers pointed out.
#2 - as a Sidecar or mirror screen to view video a/w my laptop on the road
#3 - & as an eReader
Overall these years that is about all I have used the mini for (I don't game)
I will likely buy the new Mini 6 as my old one is on its last leg.
I recommend the iPad mini in terms of features but in size I recommend the iPad 9

This was a great video for me, got me thinking about the base model iPad.
Unfortunately for me the absence of a USB-C connector was the deal breaker.
Instead I went with a used Air 4 in mint condition.
Apple should bite the bullet and fit all their devices with USB-C bringing them to a wider market.
Isn’t the mini USB-c?? I think it is
But I might be wrong
@@sweethotcocoa8357 yes the latest ipad Mini is USB-C.

I keep hearing about the "jelly roll" issue with the ipad mini 6 display in portrait mode. What's your take on this problem? Thanks.
It's called jelly scroll, and it only happens in portrait mode with the ipad mini, which is a problem because that's how most people will use it because of its size. If you personally can't see it until you really look for it, then it's not an issue. However, don't go looking for it if you can't see it because you can't really unsee it.
I have the ipad mini 6. Honestly it's not noticable. If you scroll really fast then it'll happen but it's minor. Definitely won't ruin your user experience.
It might bother you or you might find it not noticeable. Only thing you can do is try them in stores first and see for yourself if it will bother you
@@yinzer3088 it's not going to be fixed by an update it's hardware flaw lol.

question: do ppl actually buy tablets or phones for gaming???
I had a kindle reader back when the iPad first came out, and I bought the iPad immediately, but when the mini finally came out I bought it and never went back. I’ve looked at the larger iPads again and again, and they just don’t offer enough to make me switch

I got my ipad 9th gen recently and.. i was gonna get the mini or the 9th gen. What made me choose the 9th gen is that the screen is bigger so its very helpful for students i def reccomend it
Great video as always! Not to mention the nice presentation
If I want it only for reading and pdf annotation with goodnotes, which one to choose ? Are the pincels the same when it comes to writing and highlighting ?
I'm so confused right now over which ipad to buy because the comment section is filled with praises for the iPads and this makes it harder for me to pick😭😹💔
I want a big screen for digital art and becuase it's convenient but then I want a smaller iPad which can fit everywhere and I can play on it comfortably
This helps a lot...were considering of buying one.
I have the original iPad Air and I am looking to upgrade yet I still can’t decide
Honestly I have an Iphone 8 Plus which has 4K 60fps ability, takes FAR better photos than any Ipad will, has a lot more features, and really you can't tell a difference in them at all, just the size. I'm debating on keeping the Ipad 9 or not because I just don't find it that useful, facetiming is very fuzzy, and neither camera on the 9 is very good. The wireless drops pretty easily and I haven't had problems on any of my PC's, gaming systems etc. Also the sound is loud, but honestly not nearly as loud as my phone or even my fathers Samsung Tablet. Also it's bulky, and just reminds me of a giant phone that i can't use outside of my wireless area, and probably wouldn't either. I'd choose a conventional laptop, which I have two of. Of maybe even a Chromebook. Lastly the speed on the 9 seems no different than my GF's Ipad 8, it's not INSTANT as he says in the video, but somethings are fast (enough). For $329 I just can't recommend this is you've already spend nearly $1000 or less on a nice Iphone. I rarely see people use Ipads, other than my mother who is bed ridden. Other than that, 99% of everyone I see are always on their phone(s). For EVERYTHING. So unless you're hardcore (as the video says) there's really on reason for any ipad. Honestly I use my Dell Gaming PC for pretty much EVERYTHING I do, or my laptop as I said. But these are just my thoughts. I can spend that kind of money on other things of use. But they're good for the people who like them. Great VIDEO btw, very informative!!
