iPad Mini 2 cellular vs iPhone 7

[IsraeliDroneFlyer70]

I have been flying with my iPhone 7 and everything is perfect but wanted a bigger screen. So I tried my iPad mini 2 cellular and video lags and doesn't connect to as many satellites. Also tried my Samsung Note 8 cellular and Samsung Tab E lite tablets they are even worse. Any ideas?

and doesn't connect to as many satellites.

The number of satellites you're connected to isn't effected by your device. Put your iPhone on Airplane Mode and give it a go.

I have no video lag with my iPad Mini 2 (cellular). You might be pushing the memory wall.

I have the AT&T iPad mini 2 with 12gb memory available. I turned off background app refresh and uninstalled apps I don't need. I will try it tomorrow weather permitting.

I use my iPad mini 3 wifi/cellular and it's been working perfect since I got my P3P just over a year ago. The iPad Mini 3 is basically the same as an iPad mini 2. Make sure nothing is running in the background using the go app or any other third-party app. You could always try to uninstall and reinstall all the go app and see if that helps...

As you can see in my signature, I'm using such an iPad mini 2 (cell). I haven't used with the drone other tablets, but I cannot imagine some other tablets are functioning better than this one. Simply perfect.
Truly, before buying the drone I've read a lot on forums about the best tablet suited for this purpose, and conclusion came iOS is better than Android tabs, so the mini 2 (retina) came as a natural choice since its size balaces perfectly with the RC.
As Sagebrush says above, perhaps you're pushing the memory wall, thus the video lag.
