Hey guys gifted a Ipad mini for my mom.

Went for a Cellular version 16 Gb.

Things I miss really is retina eye display.

However my mom is happy with this.

Now with the cellular version I can stay connected with TAI on the move.

Nano sims are not in stock with Airtel[anger].

With apple if you use higher versions of products, the products down the line really feel under performing.

i know some of you guys will say apple is apple but still like you mentioned many 7" are available at lower price but with high specs.

nexus 7 tablet Asus Google Nexus 7 - Full phone specifications is 2000 bucks cheaper with more hardware.
Iam sorry but not a single android tablet I have seen can come close to the built quality and performance of the iPad . Yes even the iPad mini is ahead then the asus nexus tablet . I compared it side by side in best buy (USA)

More hardware doesn't mean great experience .

Hi there Tenida.

First and foremost one should register in the apple website to create an apple id.

Then there is option to authorise the PC or MAC, on which iTunes is installed.

Once this is authorised the iPhone /ipad is detected.

Just drag N number of music into the playlist of iTunes .

Then hovering to the music tab and just clicking Sync will copy 150 songs in just 2 minutes.(just gave you an example).

All the users there could have posted this info.

Sadly none did that.
