Just what I needed
I decided to change from an Air 4 over to a mini so I could have a more comfortable reading experience. So far it’s been perfect! The battery life is impressive and will last for days when used sparingly. I’m super happy I made the decision to go for it.

Portable and powerful!
Best Buy's $100 off sale was hard to pass up so I went in and got this iPad Mini with Cellular and it is worth every penny. A full ipad in power in half the size. It's the perfect size to take with you on the go without it being awkward to use on the fly. (See in photo comparison with the size of a credit card) Cellular is so worth it -- true portable computer in your hand. The pencil is a must accessory and I love the matte screen protector which makes it easier to write on and helps avoid glare
