Hi wazzup4u, you can use your iPad Mini to make and receive phone calls but not as a stand alone device. The iPad Mini still needs to be setup through your iPhone and subject to your carriers ability to provide WiFi calling as Cellular only includes data transmission. The following link will explain all the details of using the iPad Mini or any iPad as a phone.
