Hi. I have both an iPhone 5s and an iPad mini. Originally, I purchased the mini thinking that I would find some sort of benefit to the larger screen. To make a long story short, the mini never gets used by me personally. My wife uses it more than I do for those occasions when she has left her larger iPad upstairs or something.
I did not find I gained any real benefit from the larger screen and actually found the containers used on iPads sort of annoying. For me, the mini was a waste of money already having an iPhone. I can of course do everything on the phone that I can do on the mini. The phone fits in my pocket or on my belt where the mini does not and I don't have to deal with those annoying containers. I know how to use the containers when needed, so it isn't lack of knowledge on my end. This is strictly my own personal opinion so I'm sure others will chime in with their perspective.

Long ago i had an IPad first generation and even an IPad 2nd generation but we never became friends. Every time i tried to do a swiping gesture, the ipad thought i wanted to go down a row or something. Now i’m not good at going in totally streight lines so that may likely have caused this issue, so i sold the pads. Now however i’m thinking of getting myself one of these Mini retina thingimajigs, but i’m also thinking why would i want an ipad in the first place, so that’s the question i ask you. What if anything do you iphone and ipad owners use one device for and not the other? What works better on a pad then on a phone or vice versa? Is a Mini really easier to navigate than an Air or the like? Thanks for any answer. /Krister -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
