waiting waiting patience....
and watching a number of review to burn time while waiting.

my thought is Apple were smart in releasing the 2 products before the event on 25th March.  It nice surprise , even not evolutionary product- it still bring more praise than bash.

If indeed they use the event to launch- expectation could be too high and many gonna condemn and condemn.

actually not many 'new' products they can really launch in the coming keynote already.
rumours new ipad and ipad mini have been out.
airpod gen 2 has been out.
iMac with upgraded spec has been out.

only possiblity for the coming event is to release new macbook with bigger screen??
but seriously the possibility is not really high i would say.

all the devices with just spec bump did not get announced thru the event but receive quiet upgrade on website.
it should mean, if they are really going to announce any new hardware, it must be redesigned one. else, they would have already announced now.

no surprised actually. if it is iphone, one can finish even the 256GB model within 2 to 3 years time. but ipad, unlikely becos ipad is mainly media consumption device and not capturing devices.

i just made my order of ipad mini 64GB WiFi model. haha. delivers 1 to 4 April.
i am on 128gb ipad mini 2 but i know i am not making full utilization of the storage. i do have video files on the ipad but they are mostly idle and i only watch it to kill time if i have no internet connection to stream video. haha.

Ya, I think quite pointless to upgrade from Mini 4, unless you need Apple Pencil.

Good for you! Help test if it supports fast charging or not because apparently the new iPad Air does!

if u are just using it for light surfing, iPad mini 4 should still be able to tahan for another 1 to 2 years indeed. becos my iPad mini 2 also is used for more than 5 years now and it is still fine for light usage.

However, if u are into gaming for other heavy duty tasks like AR etc, upgrading to mini 2019 should be worth it too.
It is 3X cpu speed of iPad mini 4 and 9X better graphic also.

Haha but I dun have any fast charging equipment. becos I am not really into fast charging. I am using my 10w iPad charger to charge my iPhones so far so good, do not really need fast charging.

For iPad mini also, if it comes with 10w and above charger I am fine with it. hahaha.
