I have been spoiling myself again. I bought myself an iPad Mini 5! It’s not a brand new one, it’s a refurbished one, but it is as good as new! And it is cheaper than buying a brand new one. I am very, very happy with it!

I used to own an iPad 3 from 2012, but I gave that away a few years ago. Plus the OS wasn’t upgradable anymore at some point and a lot of apps that I use for banking and stuff couldn’t be updated either. So, after a few years of not having an iPad I finally decided to spoil myself (again) and get the iPad Mini 5. And I love it! The size is just perfect for me and it’s also compatible with the first generation Apple Pencil, which I hope to get in the near future. Or maybe a 3rd party pencil, I don’t know yet. I have to look into it and see what’s out there that is good. I purchased some e-books in the past that I cannot wait to dive in again and read on the iPad Mini. It’s really a match made in heaven for me.

And I don’t care that it’s refurbished. Refurbished products are not a bad thing. There is not a scratch on it and the place where I bought it from mentioned it is as good as new. Refurbished also means that they fully check the device before re-selling it. And it’s all good! So, I am very happy! Yes, Leander is pleased!
