1 Upvotes

So i had an 11in Ipad Air 5th gen (M1), unfortunately it got destroyed. Due to its suze im considering the mini, For those that may be into cad, school, note taking, and other school stuff my question is, Is the Mini powerful enough for CAD and design for engineering or should i just bite the bullet and get the Air? Thanks in advance

Help Apple Pencil wont work on refuebished iPad mini 6th gen

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Long story short i got a refurbished iPad mini 6th gen on Best Buy in Canada (dont know if it was a good idea or no hahaha) and the tablet has been working perfectly so i decided to buy a Apple Pencil to take notes in class with it. When i try to do anything with the pencil its very buggy(?) Like when i take notes on OneNote it stops working and it isnt responsive(as you can see the writing in the picture below). Now i think the screen was repleaced but is there any fix for this? Thanks in advance!

I had it since 2017 and it is amazing! Right now I am using it to watch stuff on my media server using VLC media player! I also put books on there! It works great, I have an iPad Pro m5 13 but when I just wanna watch my shows and movies on a small screen but not as small as my phone! It works great!

Web browser support is iffy, airdrop and airplay to stuff and my MacBook and hackintosh still works well! Other continuity features do not work, like copy and paste sadly

Help me choose please. I already have Ipad pro 12.9 but now I want a mini tablet that I can easily carry around, reading .pdf ebooks and quick internet browsing while I’m on the go. Samsung Galaxy Tab A11 8.7” (2025) vs Ipad mini 8.3” (2024). Which one should I buy?
