£100? Or maybe £150?

I just don't know, it's a 1year old 16gb white I pad mini in superb condition but if I flog it I don't know what a fair price is to ask for it?

Any help appreciated.

I don't know either, but it's probably worth checking out ebay prices to see what similar models go for.

You could possibly get quite a good price for it. Whether you enjoy using whatever you replace it with is another matter entirely; most unbiased reviews rate the Mini as the best small tablet on the market.

£100 max. I'll take it 😉

At the very least it's worth £158 recycled (to legitimate companies).

Check what they're going for (as opposed to what people are asking for) on eBay; I've not looked but I'd expect they're going for north of £200.

In terms of bias, if you cut CZ in half you'd find a core and pips. But arguably he may be right in this case.

Personally, having both in the house, I wouldn't want to swap my Nexus for an iPad. Apple vs Android is a personal thing, one isn't inherently "better" than the other for everyone. If you definitely want to change then fill your boots, but if you're vaguely "thinking about changing" then you may (expensively) regret it.

Cheers for the opinions. Helpful stuff.

It's based on a few things really. I have an xperia z phone and now love using android on that and I am getting chuffed off with stupid thugs like ios not supporting flash etc.

Might have to find a nexus 7 to play with. Off to ebay I go to set a few ipad in my watch list and see what's happening.

Android doesn't anymore either.

In which case, I think you'll like it.

I've got the N7 in last year's colours, and it's not put a foot wrong. I can't rate it highly enough.

a) there's plenty of alternative browsers.

b) good.

The Telegraph Tech section rated the iPad mini #2 and the iPad Air #1 in their latest round up of tablets.

You can get a Kindle Fire (old model) for £100 at the minute. For iPad value have a look at CEX and see what their selling value and buying value is and go for somewhere inbetween.

Drop me a line if you're thinking of selling. Looking for something similar for my old mum for Christmas!
