Apple's new iPad mini features a 5-core, 2nm A20 Pro So C, delivering up to 2.7 times faster graphics and 4.5 times faster AI performance than the A17 Pro. It includes 12GB of RAM, faster charging (50% in 30 minutes), and Wi-Fi 7 with Bluetooth 6 and Apple's C2 cellular modem. The device is now IP67 water-resistant and features an Acoustic Display for improved audio.
The standout upgrade is the OLED display, reaching 1,200 nits peak HDR brightness, making it thinner (5.4mm) and lighter (255g) than the previous model. However, it retains a 60Hz refresh rate, drawing criticism from users. Pricing starts at $699, a $200 increase, with the top-tier 512GB cellular model costing $1,249.
Color options are limited to Midnight and Starlight.
