iPad Mini 4 - In short supply

[cozinsky]

I am interested in buying the iPad Mini 4 64gb Space Grey. They launched simultaneously with the iPhone 6s but seems stock are very limited. I went to Menlyn iStore and there was no stock of the model I want. Also, there is no stock of that model on their website. They only have a few silver and gold models in stock. I easily got an iPhone 6s 64gb but ironically it seems the iPad mini in short supply.

Call the Manager of a iStore and ask him to reserve one for you. You'll have to call the Call Centre to do it. That's what I usually do.

Thanks, I will do that.

And Core?

I've seen zero advertising locally about the Mini 4. Checked the core site the other day but didn't see an RRP. Overseas reviews say it's a great little tab.

iStore = Core

Yo



Pricey high...though pretty much same internals as the Air 2 in a more pocketable format.

That is a bit steep.

Yip, because of the missing card slot I would want the 128GB Wifi+Cell, and at R12699 it is out of the ballpark.

Will stick to Samsung, 128GB MicroSDXC are common now.

Just received my iPad Mini 3, which cost me R3k less than that iPad 4 Mini price. That's substantial.

What's the main difference between them?

Give us the specs & price of your Mini 3...

Very large price gap between the Mini 3 & Mini 4.

Essentially the iPad 4 has faster processor, better wifi and a better camera.

Much lighter & thinner; goes without saying...

Don't forget the 2gb RAM as well. Will make a big diff + iOS 9 Full iPad multitasking is on the Mini 4 due to that increases RAM

I've got the base model: http://www.istoreonline.co.za/product-view/10849/ipad-mini-3-wi-fi-16gb-space-gray

I'm comparing the two base models here. R3999 (Mini 3 16GB Wifi) vs R6999 (Mini 4 16GB Wifi).

 

[FiestaST]

Aha...Coolio

Makro had an error on their website, listed the Mini 4 for R3999, so I ordered one for store pickup. Was the base model, though.

Damn! And I thought I got a good deal

 

[FiestaST]

Wow that's a proper deal of note
