Ipad Mini - Read outside

Hi - I am looking for info on how well the new iPad mini works when using it outdoors and in the sun. I am considering it instead of replacing my Kobo for the fourth time.


Thanks

As much as I love my iPad, they don't do well in direct sunlight, I'm afraid. I have read that Polarized Sunglasses or Passive 3D glasses can help.


If you know someone who owns an iPad ask them to let you take it outside so you can see for yourself if it will suit you. Personally, I don't even try as the results aren't very good.
