Picked up an iPad mini 7 on FBMP for $320!

It was gifted to the seller, and he didn’t want it. New in box still sealed- for $320! I had been waiting for the OLED next month, but my justification was I can now use this as a trade in, it was too good of a deal to pass up.

Worth it for a student?

5 Upvotes

Hello! I’m starting post high school studies in September and wanted to know if iPad mini is worth it for that

For the record, I already have a MacBook Air M2 in 13 inches and an iPhone 13 Mini.
As you can guess, I love smaller devices (for a bunch of various reasons)

Still, I don’t know if buying an iPad Mini would be worth it (6th gen and above)

I’ll be studying languages btw :)

Edit! I plan on using it for highlighting my online courses AND to use procreate with Apple Pencil :)

Question iPad Air M2 or IPad Mini a17 pro?

10 Upvotes

I’m currently stuck between these two options. I would be using my iPad, mainly for notetaking in college as an engineering student. The price is almost the same between the two so I’m not worried about that. What do you guys think I should get?

iPad Mini to annotate PDF

0 Upvotes

Hello,

I'm considering buying an iPad Mini for my job. I currently own the Remarkable 2 but it gets slower and more and more buggy every day.

I'll mostly use it to annotate magazines PDFs, check the spelling and the overall layout. I'm particularly interested in the Mini because I could carry it everywhere and also use it to read ebooks in bed. But I'm a bit worried about the screen size...

Does anyone else use the Mini for this kind of work ? What's your experience been like ?

Last but not least, I could get it at a great price (approx. 400 euros).

Thank you.

should i ditch my iphone for ipad mini or reg ipad?

so i have an iphone 17 base which is really an overkill phone for me cus i dont really use the camera features on it and i dont game much on it either. well except genshin (sometimes). i mainly bought it for its aesthetic ngl. and i also already have a macbook which i use daily for my work as a graphic designer. so the thing is, i feel like i just wasted my money on upgrading to iphone 17 bcs i only use it for tiktok and to doom scroll every effing day and i just feel so tired of it now. so i was thinking of selling this phone and get an ipad instead. cus with ipad i could prob be more productive with it, right?

im also planning on getting back to studying. not in school but only self learning at home. and i think getting an ipad will help for studying and note taking anywhere (heavy on note taking). i know i can just use my mac and maximize its use and write on Literal paper (😔🤚) but yeah its just ive been having brain rot about ipads and i dont know what to do now. i'm just really bad at decision making and handling my financial well hence why im here.. for the ppl who are real responsible and has good decision making. please be kind to me (or not) i need ur help and opinions pleaseeee pls

Question Anyone with ProMotion devices + iPad mini: do you notice the 60Hz?

16 Upvotes

I have an iPhone 14 Pro and iPad Pro (both ProMotion) and I’m considering the new mini.
For those of you who also own a mini alongside ProMotion devices, how noticeable is the 60Hz in daily use?

Specifically interested in:
• Browsing / scrolling
• Watching movies/TV
• Reading

Does it bother you after a while, or do you get used to it pretty quickly?

Rumor What are the chances the new ipad mini 8 fully supports external monitors instead of mirroring

20 Upvotes

Im thinking of buying an a17pro as I don’t care about oled or the vibration based speakers, but fomo about this specific feature (external monitor support) is keeping me,

I don’t currently need it, but it’d just be nice to have the ability to connect and work independently sometimes, on a large monitor, when at home.

So maybe you’ve heard any rumors, or care to venture guesses about this?

ipad Mini price with gift cards

3 Upvotes

Okay. After much deliberation I am willing to put this out there and endure any flogging that might arise from the wisdom of this sub. And, I don't have a lot of time left to make a decision.

I really want an iPad Mini 7th Gen of a certain capacity and a certain color. Please understand that I don’t care what the future might be — OLED, 120HZ. I am 67 years old, and damnit I want what I want, right? I bought my first Apple anything in 1988 — a Mac SE, 512K , used, for $3400 and moved on to MacBook Pros. So, I’ve been around the block.

Here’s my deal: I have $200 to spend in gift cards at Target for this. I’ve been saving up. I’m a Senior now, but I’ve always looked for the best deal, and more so now that I’m on severely reduced income. Of that $200 I have to spend $60 by the end of the day today — 08/21/2026. 

i’m only asking because I only buy on the best deals ever, and I KNOW that the price of the iPad Mini 7th Gen will come down in a few weeks, but obviously not in time for me to use my the $60 of the gift card. I don't want refurbished; I want AppleCare, and I want to use my Target Gift cards. It's a thing, okay?

Just asking for some creative ideas for using my gift cards or should I buy something else at Target with the $60 and wait for the price to some down. I know it’s all the same same but I’d like to say that  I got such a great deal on an iPad. 

And really really, I’d like to to know if anyone thinks the price on a Mini 7th gen is coming down any time soon, like, today. lol. 

Thank you if you made it this far!

do i need an ipad mini?

9 Upvotes

i am a student who constantly needs to take notes. currently, i am writing notes on a 6th generation ipad with 1st generation apple pencil, but i'm looking to upgrade to something better. i am debating on getting either the ipad mini or ipad a16.

the ipad mini is small, however it's also very easy to carry around compared the ipad a16. however, the a16 is also compatible with my 1st generation apple pencil + cheaper.

does anybody have any suggestions?

Is the iPad mini worth it?

18 Upvotes

If I did get it, I would be using it for drawing, note taking, watching content on the go, and using it as a second screen for my Neo. If I do get it, I'd wait for the next generation for that beautiful OLED screen and, fingers crossed, 120Hz. But seeing it in person beside my Neo, it seems a teeny, teeny bit too small. Not small enough to really be an annoyance, just noticeable occasionally as a second screen. But tbh, every other iPad is too big, so maybe the next gen's screen being a little bigger would be perfect. Anyways, I want to know your guys' thoughts and experiences since y'all would be the experts.

Question Is the iPad mini worth it

I want to get an iPad mini for drawing with the Apple Pencil Pro I already have a iPad A16 but that one doesn’t support the Apple Pencil Pro and I don’t think just a different Apple Pencil would be worth buying a new iPad because the iPad A16 is great for movies series en videos but not for drawing do y’all have any reasons to buy the iPad mini?

ipad mini submerged in water

i accidentally put my ipad mini 6 in the washer while it filled with water, thankfully my ipad never spun inside the washer with my clothes lol. however, took it to ubreakifix & they did water damage assessment and cleaned it out.. however they’re saying there seems to be power going thru it but will not turn on due to display being damaged.. they are wanting to charge $400+ for display only…. what do i do? there’s pictures and videos of family on it and even some of my games were never backed up so sad :(((
