iPod Touch and iPad Mini

Looking to replace my son's very old iPod Touch. 32GB or higher.
Really don't want to pay too much as he may be getting an iPad Mini for combined Christmas/Birthday present. Would be great too if I could get some advise on buying an iPad Mini.
Have been wondering whether to buy the COTD iPad Mini 3 https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/207131 or wait to see if there are better deals closer to Christmas. Or do I buy an iPad Mini 2 - and if so are there any suggestions on where to get one for a good price?

    No difference between iPad Mini 2 and 3 except for touch ID. You will most likely find the iPad Mini 2 cheaper.

      Yes it does appear very similar. If I can get an iPad Mini 2 cheaper that would great.

    All specs are the same. Chip speed, RAm, size, etc.

    Touch ID is literally the ONLY difference (except for price of course).

  • while the Mini 2 is no different to the mini 3 the price of catch is really cheap. i cant find significantly cheaper ipad mini 2 or 3 brand new anywhere.

    if i didn't hate apple and wanted an ipad mini id buy it myself.

    • Yes this is what I was thinking - I can't seem to find a good price for the ipad mini 2.

  • The rumour is that the ipad mini 4 will be released in September. There were a number of good deals around for the ipad mini 2, e.g. COTD, but these seem to have dried up. Personally I like my ipad mini 2, but I will be interested in the specs for the ipad mini 4 when they come out. I agree the ipad Mini 3 is not worth purchasing.

  • I'm still having trouble finding any good deals on the mini 2. It seems like this COTD deal is a slightly better price than the 16GB mini 2.

    I just don't know whether to hold off and see if there are deals on the mini 2 32GB which I think may be better in the long run. Surely there would be some sort of deal before Christmas?

    As for the iPod touch - I can't find anything thing at all.
