Guys i m so confused right now , its my birthday and i am thinking of ipad mini

I own Galaxy Note 1 , and a Powerful Desktop for most work
i went to a apple store and saw the mini and immediately fell in love with it ...........
i use my amoled screen of note so i have to stand with low res screen which i am willing to accept

iPad mini 16 wifi only = 21000
with 3g = 29000
and 32 gig with 3g = 34,400

so confused iam please help

i thought that picking up 16 gig wifi only so i can sell it easier when mini 2 comes out and use mifi router for 3g

suggest please is 16 Gig enough ?
 
Depends on your usage.
When i started in apple system,i was like to hell with extra storage.I will use cloud storage and ended up on 16gb 4s,16gb mini but now i feel the pinch when it comes to media and big games from gameloft.

So suggest 32gb model.
 
If you have already planned to buy iPad Mini now and then sell it later for iPad Mini 2 (compulsive upgrade syndrome) then why not just wait. Why even put money on this now. I know it is your Birthday and money but my sanity says i would wait to buy something i am anyways going to buy later.
If you see yourself installing lots of apps and games go for 32GB at least since some games are like 700+ MB. I don't game much so i do not know this entirely.

Bigger space is good but the only problem is apple charges a premium for doubling up the space. I myself own a 64GB iPhone 4S but i bought 64GB because i tend to store entire seasons of TV shows on the phone and more importantly i got it at a price just 10-15$ more than what a 16GB would have cost.

Buy the 3G/LTE only if you see yourself using the tablet outside and that too extensively. I have an iPad 2 3G+Wifi and believe me i have never used 3G part. If i ever need internet outside i can always turn my phone to hotspot and it works. So if you can do with wifi only model, i suggest you don't waste extra cash on 3G/LTE thing.
 
Hmmm good points
I think i should get ipad mini wifi only 16gig and spend the rest of money in upgrading my phone later
 
i bought mini 16 gig black and wifi only ,, its just true beauty
never been that happy with of the purchase i ever made :)
no retina is no issue for me and thanx to Air playit i have Infinite Memory while im home for Videos :)
 
I would suggest to go in for the 32 gig variant and that too preferrably the 3g one.

Reasons why:
1) You do not get the entire 16gb to play with. End up with ~13gb and needless said you will have videos and games installed. It wont suffice.
2) Also try to get the 3g variant. Helps a lot during travelling. Yes you could use your phone's hotspot and office internet if on wifi. But that means you need to have your phone running it for you always. Need the phone charged as hotspot tethering will eat its battery and eventually an office where wifi is free. Your ipad is always dependent when not at home. :P
3) Go for it. No matter how much you wait there willl always be a newer variant in the assembly line. Wait never ends in tech.
4) Its sexy
 
The OP already bought an iPad mini. Now since you have got it check if you really need 3G version. Unless you travel extensively I suggest stick to wifi only.
I am an iPad 2 wifi 3G user and have never inserted a sim inside the iPad.
But then i never use iPad while traveling except when I am traveling to Mumbai and watch my TV Series on it.

Btw OP, do fall for the iPad mini 2 when it comes, just enjoy what you have currently. It might have retina screen but then buy it only if the retina stuff matters to you and you can see the difference.

I bought my iPad 2 when iPad 3 was already available in the market but to my untrained eye I could not perceive the difference so I went for cheaper model.
