5 Reasons to Buy the iPad Mini 5 & 6 Reasons Not To
Wait Until You're Prepared | ||||||||||||

The iPad mini 5 is cheaper than an iPad Pro but it's still an expensive gadget so don't rush into anything. Go hands-on with the new models, the iPad's competitors, and research your habits before you buy. First and foremost, you'll want to dig into the two storage sizes to make sure you don't overspend or buy an iPad mini 5 with too little storage. You'll also want to determine if you need an LTE model. If you decide that you do, you'll want to research your carrier options and determine the carrier and plan that best suits your needs. Look into iPad mini 5 accessories including the Apple Pencil and cases. You'll also want to go hands-on with the competition. There are a ton of excellent iPad mini alternatives on the market right now including the 2021 iPad Pros, 2020 iPad Pros, 2018 iPad Pros, iPad Air, 10.2-inch iPad, iPad mini 4, Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e, and Amazon's $80 Fire HD 8. | ||||||||||||

The iPad Mini 4 (128GB) is on sale now for $250 and might even drop more on Black Friday. I haven’t heard anything about an imminent iPad Mini 5 release other than this story (I suppose a minor spec bump is possible but I think Apple is pretty much set for the Christmas shopping season with their lineup). In any case a Mini 5 would surely cost double the aforementioned sale price or perhaps $399 for a (32/64GB model). If it’s basically a processor bump without major changes then it might be a pass, but a iPad Pro-like redesign would be worth considering. If the latter I wouldn’t expect it until next year.

People buy only for prestige and apple branding, these are overrated.

a 6.5″ 16:9 iPhone XS Max screen is different from a 7.9″ 4:3 iPad Mini screen. Even if you have an XS Max, you will still feel significant difference when using an iPad Mini. Trust me!

On a positive note, the new iPad mini 5’s A12 Bionic chip enabled it to juggle multiple apps simultaneously in our lab. We also enjoyed fluid gameplay while playing Injustice 2. Battery-wise, the iPad Mini 5’s built-in rechargeable power source went beyond expectations. Although Apple promises up to 10 hours of runtime, in our Laptop Mag battery test, it endured at 12 hours and 40 minutes and it is good to know that Walmart is selling them. I will search if they are running any offer at https://walmartone.onl and buy it
