The iPad Mini, despite its diminutive size, packs a punch. At 7.7" long, 5.3" wide, and only 0.25" thin, it's the most compact and portable iPad available. This small package boasts an 8.3" Liquid Retina display with True Tone, P3 Wide Color, and ultra-low reflectivity. Released in October 2024, this iPad Mini boasts significant upgrades over its predecessor: a more powerful A17 Pro processor, double the base storage, faster Wi-Fi 6e, a faster-charging USB Type-C port, and compatibility with the Apple Pencil Pro and Apple Pencil (USB-C), with future Apple Intelligence support.
