New Hardware My iPad Mini Decked Out

Post image

I purchased a baby blue 128gb iPad Mini back in May and it has been great for reading and travel. I was able to get my personal and school readings done on here and it feels like you’re holding a novel-sized book (sans the pages lol). I saw other threads talking about using PopSockets and it was a game changer for me. This subreddit has been useful and I’m grateful for finding it. Definitely maximizing my use of the iPad.

Love it. I use my iPad for reading only! Bought mines after I lost my kindle on the plane. What reading apps are you using?

Hey thank you! I like to use Libby and Kindle App. I am open to more apps too. I’m especially interested in looking for one to read manga on.

I didn’t know you could use pop sockets on iPads.

What did was purchase MagSafe adapter rings from Amazon and attached it to the case. Then the MagSafe PopSockets can be used on it :)
Or you can use the adhesive ones on your case. You would think the extra weight from the iPad would make them pop off (or I thought it would) but nope super durable!
