Should I get the ipad mini 2 32gb or 64gb?

I'm buying the ipad mini 2, and I'm not sure which size i should get. I can get the 64gb one for only 50 dollars more. Is that worth it?

Think about how you'll use it. The memory in an iPad is not expandable. And a 32 gig iPad is really about 27 gig once you take the op(erating system into play.


Do you download and watch movies? Do you like big games, or lots of music? In other words, do you like things that can chew up memory? Your average movie can be 4-8 gig depending on its quality (so to speak, standard def vs high def)

If you like to data hoard, go for the 64


That said, I've had a 32 gig ipod for years and have gotten along just fine. I'm not a big movie person so I just have to manage my content. Same with my 16 gig iPad.


I do think, if I were buying my iPad again, and $50 was the difference between 16 and 32 gig, I'd go for the 32.

64 might be a bit much though. But you can download photos and movies without worrying about every bit and byte.
