I have been using the mini since its first generation and currently own the mini 4. It’s been getting slower and bumpy lately with iOS 11 so been thinking more about moving to the pro 10.5. While I love the form factor of the mini at this point there are no signs for a next generation so debating, especially if I get a nice deal next week for Black Friday. Thoughts?
 
I did, and whilst I would have preferred an updated mini I didn’t see that happening.

The 10.5 is fast and the smaller bezels are welcome, although now I have the X the 10.5 does feel like an old design!
 
I went from the 2d gen mini, to the iPP 10.5 and absolutely love it. Great move up, while the mini form factor has its advantages, I'm really enjoying the larger form factor.
 
Never had a girlfriend called Mimi. :D

I have my good old mini 2, and the 10.5 pro. When I'm on the go, the mini still with me. The size is just ideal. The Pro has become more of a replacement for my Macbook Air 11".
