I have an iPad mini that was given to me as a gift last year. It’s a lovely little device, it really is. But I don’t know why it exists at this point. I mean, it’s cool for reading pdfs, browsing the internet on something bigger than my iPhone, but I’d say 90% of what I use it for is as another screen for my work Mac. It’s cool n’all, but it sure as shit ain’t £750 of cool.
I never saw a good use for them at all, but people seem to love the minis. I think they might be big with older folks who don’t want a large tablet, but have shit eye sight and want a couch device that’s easier to read than a phone. That’s my theory anyway.
