          Location: Kentucky | I'm looking to get one for my husband for his birthday. He mainly just gets on Facebook and watches YouTube videos. I figured if he is going to horse shows with me, this will keep him occupied.
Does anyone have one, and do you like it? I had a co-worker bring hers in and it was small, but not too bad. I'm considering just the 1st gen since he doesn't really care about bells and whistles. |

There seems to be a large difference in WiFi and the WiFi + Cellular, yikes. |

          Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | My son has a mini and it's a great size. I got a Hard Candy case for it instead of the otter box and like it better plus it was cheaper for the same features. |

Do you video on your Samsung tablet?
How is the video quality?
Is it easy to upload videos to you tube?

| I have had my mini for over a year now and I cannot remember what life was like before it. lol Seriously though, mine has Wi-Fi and cellular data on it. I ordered mine on www.QVC.com with all of the accessories and easy pay. They charged my credit card into 6 monthly payments, but they ship it immediately. I LOVE QVC! Edited to add that I have the 64 gig mini.

| It's a perfect size, and is just like having a big iPhone. I'd just use your phone hotspot otherwise it's pretty expensive to get data on it. I'd get a good case for it, mines been dropped so many times! |
