While I think it's okay to get an iPad Air 2 for its price, I have to say not a lot of people should buy the iPad Mini 3 for the price of Php20,490, and the reason is simple. And no, it's not because it bends - it's because the iPad Mini 3 is just an iPad Mini 2 with a few small changes that might not even matter to you or the person you're giving it to. The iPad Mini 3 has Touch ID, is available in gold, and no longer has a 32GB variant - 64GB and 128GB are the storage options from there. The base option for the 16GB iPad Mini 3 is at Php20,490, and the iPad Mini 2 now has dropped in price to just Php15,490; that's paying exactly Php5,000 more for Touch ID and the color gold if you're getting one. But hey, if you really need Touch ID, gold or more than 32GB of storage, feel free to get an iPad Mini 3 for an extra Php5,000. The new iPad Air and the iPad Mini Retina Display is now up in the Apple Philippines Online Store. Apple's website & retail stores do not have it yet as of the moment, but other retailers are starting to sell it along with the iPad Air early - the new iPad Mini with Retina Display can now be purchased locally at Villman.
