If there is ANY variation in size of the device it will not fit. This is a great cover but it is designed for one device. It fits perfectly and and a 1/16 deviation in dimension will not work. Watch for one designed for YOUR device and you will be much happier. As I said check the dimension carefully and look for any changes in switch locations as well.

iPad mini with retina is the same exact specs as a regular iPad mini. It will fit perfectly.

Sorry, since I don't have an iPad mini retina I am unable to help you with this question. But will agree it is a very snug fit for the mini I have, but does a great job protecting my humble investment!

I don't own the retina version of the iPad mini but Apple has not changed the overall design of the aluminum body. It should fit exactly as it does on non retina version of the iPad mini since the body and form factor are exactly the same.

I bought it for the iPad Mini with Retina Display. It fits perfectly. I don't know what other models it fits.

Yes, it fits very well. I've had it on my iPad Mini 3 since day one and never regretted it.

I echo the feedback from S. Erholm. Fit on the Retina iPad Mini is just fine, but the new Mini has a second microphone opening on the back that gets covered. This will probably negate the benefits of this additional microphone, such as noise canceling.

I have the same case for my iPad Air, and it fits very tight. I don't remember exactly how it fit when new, it may have been a bit of work to get it to fit. I do remember working hard, with some effort, to stuff the overlap portion behind the back of the iPad to maintain a tight fit across the screen. It has held up well, and doesn't slip in the case.

It didn't fit mine either. I even returned it and asked for another one to be delivered thinking I got a defective product. Unfortunately, contrary to the product description, it really doesn't fit the iPad mini with retina.

I love mine with the original mini. I personally think it's better than the apple case.

It fit my iPad mini. Not sure about the new one that is coming out. If the new one is the same size, then it should fit. :)

We'll, I'm sure you'll think I'm an idiot, but I don't know if this iPad mini has the retina display or not - my boss gave it to me. That said, I don't see how the display enters into it; seems the compatibility would be a function of the external dimensions, so yes, this case fits the iPad mini very well.

This fits my iPad mini w/ Retina Display, model number MF086LL/A perfectly. I assume it will also fit the iPad mini. Thank you.

It fits the iPad Mini with Retina display. I have three of these cases, 2 for two iPad Mini's and 1 for an iPad Mini with Retina.

It's sized for the non-retina mini and is a snug fit at that. I'd be concerned that the slightly thicker retina mini would be too snug.

I use mine for the " new ipad " with retina display 16 gb. Maybe check the specs (Size ) to see if its the same. It's a really nice case

No, I purchased it for my apple mini iPad. And the fit was very snug. I returned it.
