Poll: Is Your iPad Mini Chipping Like The iPhone 5?

Reddit user Stone-D took to the popular social network to lament about his iPad mini chipping from simple Smart Case use. It’s got me wondering if anyone else with an iPad Mini is seeing similar problems.

In my experience the iPad mini is a lot more rugged than the iPhone 5. I don’t even use mine with a case! Quite a few of you, myself included, have had a terrible experience with the iPhone 5 and it being scratched and chipped. We haven’t heard many complaints about the iPad Mini though. It just doesn’t seem to be as large of a problem.

This reddit story is the first time we’ve even heard complaints about the iPad mini paint job and chipping along the edges, so we have to ask … is your iPad mini already in rough shape? Have your say below.
