iPad mini review -- Engadget
I go to Engadget all the time to read about upcoming stuff but damn this guy has lost his mind and is just cockgobbling Apple sauce. WTF?

Worst review of a gadget evar!

I like Apple products. I do not like their price tag. Therefore, I do not own apple products aside from my phone which is only the case because it was the cheapest smart phone Verizon had to offer at the time.

I have an ipod. I've owned a lot of ipods over the years, really useful. Only had to replace them due to my own idiocy.

I was actually hoping to see it with the retina screen and new processor at that price. I know it's someone's opinion, just did not expect a review like this from them. Meh.

the specs have been out for a while
nobody expected a retina screen or new processor except u lol

 

[Granite Gargoyle]

Serious question then, did they just tell all of their (Apple) fans that the new processor is not needed? Otherwise, the mini won't be able to run half the shit coming down the pike that is written for the new proc.

Never buy first generation of any tech product.

i think there's enough casual users for a new processor to not matter (ie consumers such as myself)

To us, the joy of a 7-inch tablet is walking across the office or the airport, holding the slate in one hand while tapping away at it with the other.

haha

I guess that could be true. Just seems like a step backwards. And to be honest, I had not kept up with the mini because I thought it would have similar specs to the other newer stuff.

I really just thought the review was just fucking lopsided. Most sites are giving the mini good reviews without straight up jerking Apple's dick. Guess just did not expect it from Engadget, then again, it's the interweb

 

[cancer]

it is a giant step backwards

apple's products are probably going to be shit in the next 5 yrs, hence why u see samsung making a huge push

 

[Granite Gargoyle]

It's almost like they are fragmenting their own devices. The same thing they pointed out about Android devices. How can you write for the bigger and better proc when you just pushed something with a 2 generation old proc. I understand what you are saying about the casual people but they buy games and stuff too.

 

[Automatic Jack]

It's almost as if they think you'll buy this one and the next one too.

 

[Dangerdoggie]

The ipad mini goes against the dieing wishes of Steve Jobs that there should only be one size for the ipad.

I'm convinced Apple fanatics are all gay... at least bi.

I like my electronics, this is true, but I doubt I will buy another Apple item. I like my Android stuff too much at this point. I like being able to make it suit my needs, not being told what suits me. That's how I feel Apple operates anyway. I understand they are both basically tied to their respective entities but Apple is more so.
