At the time of release of the Mini 5, the Mac User Group held its last (pre-COVID) hardware raffle. 1st prize was a 256 GB cellular iPad Air 3 and 2nd prize was a 64 GB wi-fi iPad Mini 5. I was lucky enough to win the 2nd prize. I was a bit put out at not scoring the big one but later realised that apart from connectivity, storage and physical size limits, the two had identical internals. I still use it a lot despite my recent cellular 256 GB iPad Air 5 purchase. It really is quite a capable device.
