Sorry. I don't wish to start an argument, but I actually said in my post that I found
the colours poor, not that "the overall quality of the tablet is poor".
I said that I was quite disappointed with the mini and this is due to, in my opinion, the less than stellar display of
colour in what is a premium device.
I ordered the mini from Apple upon release prior to it being available to see in stores. I don't recall there being any indication from Apple that the mini's display was going to be in any way inferior to that of the air. I had already purchased the air and was very happy with it and had an expectation that the screen, including the colours, would be the same.
I am happy with other aspects of the mini, but in comparison to the air I still wouldn't recommend it for those people who are keen to use it for photography. I did wish to use it for photographs (it is a perfect size for travelling) so that is the basis of my disappointment.
It could be that my mini's colours aren't as good as in other units. It is not just that the colours are a bit washed out, but the tones are off. The blues have quite a greenish cast on my unit. Very noticeable to me when viewing sea/sky etc.
Anyway, as I said, I don't wish to create an argument so I will bow out now. I just wished to clarify what I had said.
