Don't let its diminutive size fool you; the iPad Mini packs a punch. This compact tablet, measuring just 7.7" long, 5.3" wide, and 0.25" thin, boasts an impressive 8.3" Liquid Retina display with True Tone, P3 Wide Color, and ultra-low reflectivity. Released in October 2024, this model features substantial upgrades over its predecessor: a powerful A17 Pro processor, double the base storage, faster Wi-Fi 6e, a faster-charging USB-C port, and compatibility with the Apple Pencil Pro and Apple Pencil (USB-C). Future Apple Intelligence support is also planned.
