The last thing I thought I would be doing when I woke up was spending £189, and on an Apple product to boot.
Madness, I should just get up and go to work, rather than having a quick lookie around on here.

With all the SIM card deals recently I have a question. When you put a SIM card in the iPad does it lock to that first network or can you change SIMs as you please, depending on the deals available?
a6unx to Sancho
24 Jun 151#189
It will not be locked to the first n/w based on the first SIM you use. It is n/w independent and will remain n/w independent for the rest of its life. So feel free to hop on and off based on the best SIM deals on the market.

what's the difference between smart cover and smart case? one is priced £9.99 the other £19.99 from argos/ebay.
AzNDeals to midnightblade

Pretty self explanatory, but the cover just protects the screen whereas the case is a case that protects the back as well as the front.

You can buy this cover for sub £5 on ebay, various colours available. I opted for white to match the front. Looks a bit fisherprice now but feels pretty robust. I also bought a tempered glass screen for a similar price.
Also, thanks OP. I'm impressed with my first Apple product so far.
Look for the model number on the top label on the back of the box, end of the third line. It's also on the back of the iPad itself I think.

I got mine delivered earlier. There's a small mark on the back that doesn't rub off, maybe that's why they are cheap? Not that I care, just wondering it anyone else sees any imperfections ?

Just bought iPad Air 2 gold 128gb tonight for £479 on Zavvi ... Used their happy hour discount ..
Glad you got one mate. I missed out by literally seconds after the discount code went live again. They only sold 18 in the final batch and the last buyer secured one at probably the exact moment I clicked confirm at my PayPal checkout.
Missing out this morning was disappointing. Missing out a second time tonight within the click of a button was just ridiculous :disappointed:

Any coincidence that eBay and PayPal are parting company?
eBay: "Here you go me old (Pay)Pal - we got you a leaving present"
PayPal: "Great - thanks! What is it?"
eBay: "A sh**load of debt!"
PayPal: "Erm, thanks............"
On another note, similar to others, this would have been my first purchase of anything Apple. Shame they don't realise that if they priced their stuff more reasonably they would grow their customer base. Ho-hum.

Same here. Looks like the code was more popular than PayPal had dared hope. Midnight tonight was pretty optimistic of them. I imagine they'd allocated a set amount of money to cover the code that simply ran out.

Looks like someone just bought the last few. Sorry
Depends on what type of cover you want i.e. smart cover (which acts as a front cover and stand), full case (protecting everything) or just something to slip the iPad into. Also, with regards to the screen protector I've never bothered with mine as I find it's not a vulnerable as smartphones to getting scratched but obviously that'll depend on where/how you use it.
Going back to the original question of covers/cases etc it's worth looking on Amazon at user reviews. Personally I have a "iPad Mini TPU Gel Skin Case" and then an Apple Smart Cover (you can pick up the Apple one on the Argos eBay store for £9.99 http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Argos?keywords=ipad%20mini%20smart)

15 Jun 15#95
Looks good, thank you.
Holiday is one of the only times I'll use the ipad outside home - you can use the same SIM abroad too with some effort, i.e. credit the SIM and then buy an add on from the credit (I'm not sure what the add ons cost yet).
Looks like the £2.99 / 48 hours / 500 MB is an "add-on" too (add on purchase is a pre requisite for feel at home on PAYG).

Why don't you check your PayPal account first, as posted Currys takes full amount from PayPal but the 20% is calculated so you will pay 20% less - stop scaremongering
giorgoXXI
15 Jun 151#82
For anyone confused about the payment, the discount is offered by PayPal, not Currys. So when you pay, the full amount 235 goes to Currys, BUT PayPal tops up your account by £47 and then takes the rest from your card. That's why it shows in some places as 235 sent to Currys.

Look for the model number on the top label on the back of the box, end of the third line. It's also on the back of the iPad itself I think.

Missing out this morning was disappointing. Missing out a second time tonight within the click of a button was just ridiculous :disappointed:
eBay: "Here you go me old (Pay)Pal - we got you a leaving present"
PayPal: "Great - thanks! What is it?"
eBay: "A sh**load of debt!"
PayPal: "Erm, thanks............"
On another note, similar to others, this would have been my first purchase of anything Apple. Shame they don't realise that if they priced their stuff more reasonably they would grow their customer base. Ho-hum.
Also a cheap data sim? If not I'll just grab a sharer sim on my EE account.
Thanks.
Showing pictures of the different iPads but when clicked on says there are none :/
Shame - had this in my PayPal checkout with the discount but it timed out. My bank manager will be happy at least :-/

highly recommend if you like streaming films tv shows etc
Can anybody recommend a good case/cover plus screen protector? Obviously as cheap as possible.
Going back to the original question of covers/cases etc it's worth looking on Amazon at user reviews. Personally I have a "iPad Mini TPU Gel Skin Case" and then an Apple Smart Cover (you can pick up the Apple one on the Argos eBay store for £9.99 http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Argos?keywords=ipad%20mini%20smart)
ENDED
For those asking about cases, I've always used this eBay seller: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/velocityoutlet/ Always great prices for branded cases.
Holiday is one of the only times I'll use the ipad outside home - you can use the same SIM abroad too with some effort, i.e. credit the SIM and then buy an add on from the credit (I'm not sure what the add ons cost yet).

Not bad :smiley:
Looks like the £2.99 / 48 hours / 500 MB is an "add-on" too (add on purchase is a pre requisite for feel at home on PAYG).
Purchased mine via the eBay app and the discount worked.

Log in to PC to check as mobile app seems to display non-discounted amount
Why don't you check your PayPal account first, as posted Currys takes full amount from PayPal but the 20% is calculated so you will pay 20% less - stop scaremongering
It's not a mistake as price is ok'ish, only cheap due to ebay 20%
Took full amount for me too, maybe as I changed from bank to CC but didn't notice a change in amounts, I've sent message to cancel and voucher won't work work now which suggests it has been used
:smile:
Something PAYG that doesn't expire so it can live in the ipad for emergencies and, if possible, be used abroad.
Voted hot!
2. Apple Mini 2, 32gb £239 with 3 year warranty @ John Lewis (price match with Richer sounds)
Those were the two deals on here recently. I think the OP just found a better deal than no 2 above.
Almost half RRP. Crazy deal.
Heat given for the find :-)
Mine's been sent already. Great stuff. 12 month warranty too, can't go from for under 190.
I'm after a smaller tablet and after seeing the Z3 Tab, I'll likely go for that. shame there's no deals on eBay for the Z3.
this is a great price and now I may have to change my mind.
New Manufacturer Sealed
There is an intact manufacturer's seal, and the item is brand new and pristine.
Some product boxes are unsealed as supplied by the manufacturer, these are still brand new, pristine, and listed as "New".
Items listed as "New" come with 12 months Currys/PC World Outlet warranty.
Madness, I should just get up and go to work, rather than having a quick lookie around on here.
Only concern is it says 3G, I thought they were all LTE?

The wireless support is excellent only sans 802.11 ac?
Looks like you only get GPS with this, the cellular model, very strange if true.
what's the battery life like on these?
Definitely enough for web browsing mate, It's enough for me at least. :smiley:
Is 16gb enough for someone that just surfs the web or do you need the Mini 2 32gb version instead?
Cheers
For sure this is a better deal, a 45% saving compare to RRP!
Has anyone used it more than once per paypal account?
Am searching for a iPad mini for a week and almost gone for iPad mini 2 32GB wifi for £239 pricing matched with JL, now so happy have found this!
1. Is this the same product? Crazy saving if it is..
Cheers
