The iPad Mini may be the smallest tablet in the lineup, but it's by no means limited. This compact and highly portable iPad measures just 7.7" long, 5.3" wide, and a mere 0.25" thin. Despite its size, it boasts a stunning 8.3" Liquid Retina display with True Tone, P3 Wide Color, and ultra-low reflectivity. Released in October 2024, the new iPad Mini features significant upgrades over its predecessor, including the powerful A17 Pro processor, doubled base storage capacity, an updated faster Wi-Fi 6e protocol, a USB Type-C port for faster charging, and compatibility with the new Apple Pencil Pro and Apple Pencil (USB-C). It will also support the upcoming Apple Intelligence.
