I am thrilled. I have owned and do own several other apple products and I went back and forth between this and a Kindle Fire but the reviews for the iPad are substantially better than the Kindle so I went for it, Higher cost and all. I am so not disappointed. It took only 24 hours to get here(thanks Amazon shipping) and I started loading it and messing around with it immediately. I wanted to give it a few days before I wrote my review and am even more pleased with it now than I was the day it got here. And believe me when I say I have put this device through it's paces in just 3 days. To be fair I have only own one other tablet like this device. It was an unbranded Android waste of plastic and metal the same size as the iPad mini 3 so to be absolutely clear perhaps my standards are lower than some other reviewers??? Maybe not though.Upsides?There are many.-It's fast. The first day I had a little concern because the TV shows I was adding were taking well over an hour to load each 1 hour episode but turns out it was my internet that was the problem as it has run as smooth as a baby's bottom ever since.-It's light. I have a big new 6 lb HP laptop that's great but that 6 lbs gets HEAVY after a couple hours. The thin and light iPad mini 3 is compact and light and when used with one of those cases that stands it up it is awesome.-easy access to iTunes and syncing with all Apple devices. This is maybe my favorite aspect other than the performance. ALL my devices are connected now.Downsides?-No sd card port without buying the separate adaptor. Good move Steve Jobs. You have to buy the device the the most space available that you'll need and use or buy an adaptor to use an sd card with it but I hear those are not very reliable plus the added issues of the bulkiness of the adaptor. More money for Apple I guess. I got the 64 gb version. Plenty room enough for me.-The cost is almost double what the Kindle Fire of similar design and capability costs but I think for quality you must pay more. So the cost may actually be more of an upside?? due to the performance.-Not being able to download entertainment files from amazon prime. -that is the biggy downside for me. I am a die hard Amazon Prime user and the app does not support downloads from Amazon at this time so unless you add it thru itunes or buy direct from the tunes store you can't download movies, etc.. from Prime. That is the only real bummer for me. But not enough to take away a star. Itunes has more than enough goodies for the avid user..To summarize, this was a great purchase and I would be more than happy to recommend an iPad mini 3 to my family and friends.

always kept in waterproof case, dropped and kicked and bitten numerous times, it survived only because the case, wife had her ipad air on a apple case the screen, bezel and home button broke on 1 drop, I myself have never liked apple products, the ones made of aluminum were great, I just never liked the iOS, but wife and daughters like it

Compairing the Mini 3 to the Air 2 : having the two really makes the union worth considering. They complement each other and the Mini 3 makes traveling easier when navigation and features (builds) familiarity with both devices. The Mini 3 is comfortable to hold and a bit thicker for mobility rather than being too flimsy on the road or out and about, Pros: dependability, light weight, regardless of phone service, there are free talk and text apps that still make clear,crisp calls. Typing and texting are also a plus which no longer is there true need for a cellphone. Get a good protective case durable for out there and this model is a winner. Flaws: not much, but the Air is faster and even better WiFi speed. The Mini 3 display is much much better than the Air 2 and sound a bit better.

Superb product.. But advice for the seller please improve your packaging.. You cannot provide a electronic product in a simple plastic packaging where I am receiving Oder orders in proper box packaging. Rest Apple is Apple.. Best product :) Must buy :)

The product had 2 dents in the back and several scratches all over the body. It seemed like it had been used and did not seem like it was brand new. It did not even startA total ripoff...wastage of money....

Great Product!!! Great service from Amazon!!! I got this product for 30K.. Super deal!!!Only issue is what's app is not available for iPads. I hope what's app developers will work on it ASAP

Good one and worth of cost

Good machine but small on the screen.....iPad usual size is better.
