For our family, the iPad Mini is the best form factor. Our use-case is gaming and media consumption. Our Mini 4s are long in the tooth and I'm happy with the new form factor and the A15 chip. 

Stephen,

This was a great insightful review. We are an iPad Mini family, 5 minis for 4 people. Four of us have mini 4s and the extra is mini 5 for business. We understand the mini's limitations but for us the size, the functionality as a video screen, and gaming are perfect. Portability is key.

We were hoping for a refresh of the mini this year and my only issue is the 64GB for $499. That is a steep price for 4 of us updating. I think this is a fail by Apple, a minimum of 128GB should have been the lowest capacity. We will all need the 256GB and our only saving grace is the $145 trade-ins for our mini 4. 

The other slight I have on the iPad Mini 6 is the colors don't match the iPhone 13 Pros.

I use it on the iPad and never had an issue, maybe as a workaround use screen mirroring until a fix is ready?

I use my iPad Mini, mirror to AppleTV too, and haven’t had any problem. But, Apple should fix the connectivity issue to keep with their, “It just works” alive and well.

I start my .mac account around 2000’s and not going to let it go.

Has anyone at Apple PR heard about negative publicity?

I agree. Normally I side with Apple, but this is ridiculous. Prepear's logo looks more like an avocado with a leaf than a pear.
