This iPad mini boasts the powerful A17 Pro chip, so it's capable of zippy performance and running multiple apps at once, if that's what you want to do. Its 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display gives you more screen real estate to work with than your phone, too. So you get more space to play around with, which is a big draw to tablets in general.

It has a 12MP Ultra wide front camera with Center Stage, USB-C connecivity, WiFi 6E support, and it's compatible with Apple Pencil Pro. That means it's good for play, but it's especially useful for taking notes, doodling, or working on presentations. You can draw pictures with all the art tools iPad has.

If you're ready to go ahead and pick up an iPad mini, be sure you catch it at this price. You'll be glad you have the miniature form factor of the iPad that can still handle many of the same tasks.
