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 feels like somewhat of a trick from Apple, as they could have delivered us straight into the age of 7 inch tablets with Retina Displays. They chose to wait and give us a 7.9 inch iPad 2 with a bit of overpricing attached to it. And now we re...
In my first week with the iPad mini, it quickly became the iPad I actually wanted to carry around. The mini's form factor is really where all of the innovation is. It's thin, light and an almost perfect balance of functional screen size and portability. I...
