The iPad Mini costs too much
Especially considering the lower resolution of its 7.9-inch non-Retina Display. The A5 processor isn't as robust as the one in the fourth-gen iPad and iPhone 5. Typing on the smaller screen is not quite as comfy
Abstract: The iPad mini (review here) sees Apple entering the fiercely contested 7in tablet market. Here's our iPad mini video review. Smaller than a full-sized iPad , but quite a bit bigger than an iPod touch , the Apple iPad mini is the long-awaited in-betwee...

An outstanding compact tablet, beautifully designed and with great battery life. Apple has done a great job with the iPad mini, although it we do feel that the pricing is not as competitive as it could be...
Great size, reasonably powerful, great for gaming and reading, long battery life, great selection of apps, lightweight and suitable for reading onehanded,
Not as good value as competing tablets, lower screen resolution and CPU horsepower than we would expect
Everything about the iPad Mini makes me believe this is the design that an iPad wants to be; in comparison, the "iPad maxi" feels oversized for many tasks it is commonly used for. In fact, looking at the iPad Mini, you're almost certainly looking at th...
I've heard many complaints about the iPad mini. I've heard people moan about the dated processor and the low resolution, 4:3 screen. I've even heard a few complain about the lack of GPS in the Wi-Fi version. But despite the complaints, some of which are ...
Abstract: The Nexus 7 was something of a game changer in the tablet world when it was first released in the UK back in July. Being the first official Google Android tablet and targeting the affordable, shrunk down 7in tablet space, the Nexus 7 became an immediat...

The Apple iPad Mini made a good impression. If you haven't jumped on the smartphone and tablet bandwagon yet, there isn't much difference between the Apple iPad Mini and the ASUS Nexus 7 in terms of hardware. If you already are a loyal Apple consumer an...
The power of an iPad 2 in a more easily portable device, Battery life / Good sleep mode, Great design, firstrate finish, Responsiveness / Featurerich iOS 6 interface with over 700,000 apps, Grip/handling greatly improved by intelligent Multitouch pressure
Screen def isn't exactly highend, Onscreen readability isn't on par with the Nexus 7 or the Kindle Fire HD, Proprietary connector, Internal memory can't be expanded
With its remarkably high-quality finish, speedy operation and fresh, sleek design, the iPad Mini has plenty of reasons to succeed. Plus, although it may not seem as practical to handle as certain competitors at first glance, in the end, Apple's Mini table...

Premium look and feel Incredibly thin and light The iOS app selection is huge Great battery life
Sub-par screen sharpness Mediocre camera 4:3 aspect ration not suited to movies Too wide
With its incredibly slim body and decent performance, the iPad Mini is a very worthwhile addition to the iPad line and much more than just a reactionary rushed out product. So good is it that it left us questioning the ten-inch tablet form-factor altogeth...
