I’m one of them. Never wanted to buy ipad mini since the design was outdated and other ipad is too big. I check the apple store almost everyday after event coz i want to order asap  biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif

I got the iPad mini 5 and sold it after a week, and went with iPad Pro 12.9, such a drastic change lol...rather sacrifice mobility and went with the new design back then..

Now that the mini 6 has new form factor, I’m planning to get the mini 6, and sell the 12.9 or probably keep it just for streaming purposes biggrin.gif

It can if you use the same appleid as your iphone.

I used iMessage & answered call using the ipm6 already  smile.gif
I tot there is only two speaker? I tried to cover the speaker hole (4 of them one by one) to see which one got sound which one doesnt

I can only detect 2 with sound though mega_shok.gif  wink.gif
*
Hmm I’m not sure, I only tested it at switch earlier...need others to confirm.
Anyway doesn’t make sense to have 4 speakers but only 2 functioning..have you tested on others like Spotify or YouTube or etc?

It got 4 speakers grid and 2 active speaker only.
The 2 top is channeled from the 2 below, just in case if the bottom active speaker is blocked.
*
So it works different as the iPad pros? Coz I just checked my iPad Pro every speaker works simultaneously..

From iPad pro, yes I can feel the difference.

Can definitely feel the difference especially if you put side by side...but the mini 6 offer palm size comfort which is something that the iPad pro’s and iPhone 13’s can’t...

Just installed a screen protector and a simple case and finally got to really use it. Man, it really feels like an iPad Pro mini. I’m very pleased with the performance and form factor for reading and videos.

Yeap it does feel like an iPad Pro mini, besides the lack of 120hz thumbup.gif

Finally received order from Apple Store. Some angle it’s look like space grey, light blue but it is actually purple colour. Very handy size, can really fit into pocket 👍

I suggest you go for Purple color bro
Its new color like sierra blue in iphone 13 pro  biggrin.gif
We gonna use casing anyway, so color doesn't really matter after all
*
I’ve been telling myself that too, that’s why every ipad was space grey lol, this time thought of giving it a change, wanted starlight to contrast with all my previous iPad, but after playing with the purple ones now I can’t decide biggrin.gif

To those intending to sketch and draw with this iPad, I feel like it feels great sketching in portrait orientation like this 👍.

Yea imo using the mini 6 on portrait does gave me a better experience than using it landscape, besides video streamings..

QUOTE(Dozz @ Oct 15 2021, 11:27 AM)
Haha... take your time bro!
Do let us know here what color you decide to go for later  smile.gif

Yea, gonna take a while to decide, too many on the plate now, evil apple with all their yearly gadget releases laugh.gif

Ini poison kuat haha...I still wish to see the real starlight before making decision..coz pics and videos are quite different than the real product from what I can see on the purple..since I’m getting one for my kid, I might end up getting both colours and pick the left over laugh.gif

I just decided to order one of this case too, after using the iPad mini for a few days. I realise that I actually would like to take it out of the case and use it without the cover, but still want protection, and also want a case where I can prop it up in portrait mode, not just landscape. And the ASH case that I ordered, the pencil slot is irritating cos I actually like to have the pencil out connected magnetically and easy to grab each time. Prob will have to sell the ASH case.
*
Using it without case is the best! And that’s what I’m planning to do, go naked on the mini 6 to get the full experience and comfort biggrin.gif

Is anyone having issue with the SP order? Bought 2 from 2 different seller in shopee. The screen protector is slightly bigger.

Any suggestion for ready stock?

Hard to get ready stocks now as the mini 6 is still very new.
However you can go to MyChameleon at Publika or BSC, they got ready stocks but it’s universal brand, so it’s kinda normal brand but has oleophobic coating and reasonably good, cost rm49. If you want better brands like Hoda you gotta wait till mid nov..., and Hoda ones cost around 115-120....if you’re going to the one at Publika you can look for this guy name (Ten), he has better skills in installing TG, but that’s just me lol

Thanks for the info. Don't mind normal brand now. for temporary protection

Go go get it, the one at Publika should have about 2-3 pieces left only...best to call them and reserve before you go..

Anyone can recommend any good internet plan for this ipad mini?
Tried to register for Unifi Bebas but their system always down.
Will use the mobile data occasionally so prefer low cost plan (and long validity)

uMobile not bad, rm30/month unlimited data (says unlimited but actually there’s a cap, I think after 50gb they throttle speed)

Jelly scroll is not noticeable unless intentionally spot for it...i’d say it’s very minimal unless you are super ocd..smile.gif
