iPad Mini Comparison

My iPad mini 5 has arrived. Along with it's new bracket, the iPad arrived in good order. Actually, I sent a confirmation email to fellow BAC member and seller that he could have shipped a dozen eggs intact in that box since it was so well packaged. 

I immediately set up the iPad and to my delight found it fairly simple. I sat both iPads side by side and followed the instructions on the screen.  Everything transferred except for the Weather Channels weather app, I 'll have to figure that out. 

Here are the specs on the iPad mini 5.

Right out of the box I noticed how thin the 5 is and the weight difference compared to my mini 3. Keeping with the side by side I decided to do a timed start up test. Here are my results.
