Lann 10,838 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Looking to get one for my daughter, but I have no experience with apple. There seems to be different generations and price. No need for 3g or 4G, WiFi is enough. Is there anyone who knows a bit more about the different generations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjRabbit 6 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 If your looking for a barebones Stat breakdown this site has a pretty good one http://ipad.about.com/od/Tablet_Computers_eReaders/a/The-iPad-Comparison-Chart.htm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beans_343 6 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Best value is the iPad mini 2 with the much better processor versus the first gen (A7 over A5 I think) plus it has the retina display. Worth it because it has much more horsepower so will be more future proof / better resale value. The latest (3rd gen) is a waste of money in most people's opinion as it doesn't add anything significant over the 2nd gen (new colour choices and a fingerprint reader basically). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irathernot 18 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 We work with these at University and I can second Beans' comment. There is no real improvement over the Mini 2, same display, same camera - no real improvement. Go with the Mini 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skip_rat 447 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I'd also agree with what's been posted. I'm using my iPad mini 2 to type this. It's great, I replaced an ipad 2 with this mini 2 and much prefer it. It's nice and light and the display is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pb76 3,951 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Both my daughters have an iPad mini 2, they are more than happy with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjRabbit 6 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 My two cents, I really like the fill size iPad, I have a huge phone and the mini feels too big to be a phone and too small to be a tablet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
