The iPad is my favorite accessibility tool. My 12.9" iPad Pros (one for work, one for home) are my go-to tools all day long. Being visually-impaired, they're a godsend. But, they're also heavy, and a bit clumsy in some cases. As a magnifier, for example.
For years I've been using an old 2017 10.5" iPad Pro as a magnifier and general-use tool on my workbench. However, it was getting slow and cranky, plus the battery was losing charge pretty quickly. I decided to replace it with this iPad mini, since compared to most dedicated accessibility tools, it's rather inexpensive.
It turned out to be a good choice. The camera is sharp, and the form factor makes it easy to get into cramped spaces. Not to mention it's light: at half the weight of my iPad Pro, I almost tossed it in the air the first time I used it.
What came as a surprise is how much I turn to it for other needs. It's nice to use sitting on the couch and having VoiceOver read news stories to me, or to have text conversations with friends, etc. Because it has a decent A15 SoC, it doesn't lag when doing VoiceOver. Plus, the battery life is amazing.
It's a decent tool, and I expect I'll be using it for many years.

Great travel companion!
Really cool little thing, it’s so small when compared to my m2 iPad Pro 11 inch, nice and bright screen, it’s seems like an mini iPad Pro, I personally don’t notice the difference between 120htz & 60htz in the iPads or on my iPhone that is also 60htz but some might, whatever I can do on my pro model I can do on this, but my pro is way to big to pull out on public transportation, I’m low-key and don’t want all eyes on me, and this mini is good at that, I hope anyway, I like playing games & they do contests and events with time frames all the time and I can finish some up while on my travel time, I can do this on my phone but the words on the screen don’t always zoom in and can be extremely small and hard to view what the tasks call for, this iPad mini helps with that, I totally didn’t need this but I got it anyway, the small size does take some getting used to when coming from a bigger iPad or tablet but it don’t take very long, btw it’s great for streaming tv shows, battery life is good enough, the Amazon box came well packaged and iPad itself came sealed the way Apple does it, with around 76% battery life, so nothing was amiss, I remembered this time to smell the inside of box the way some YouTubers do, and still don’t get it, anywho definitely would recommend to anyone wanting this mini iPad
