it is A15!!! OMG.

CUPERTINO, CALIFORNIA Apple today introduced the powerful new iPad mini — with a larger 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display — in four gorgeous finishes. Featuring the brand new A15 Bionic chip, the new iPad mini delivers up to 80 percent faster performance than the previous generation, making it the most capable iPad mini ever. A new USB-C port allows faster connectivity, and cellular models with 5G bring more flexible mobile workflows. New advanced cameras, Center Stage, and support for Apple Pencil (2nd generation) enable new ways for users to capture photos and videos, communicate with loved ones, and jot down their ideas when creativity strikes. The new iPad mini is available to order beginning today, and will be in stores beginning Friday, September 24.
“With its ultra-portable design and wide range of uses from everyday tasks to creative and enterprise applications, there’s nothing else like iPad mini,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing. “With a new all-screen Liquid Retina display, massive boost in performance, new advanced cameras on the front and back, Center Stage, USB-C, 5G, and support for Apple Pencil, the new iPad mini is a huge leap forward that can be held in the palm of your hand.”

i knew it.
thats the only reason they ddnt announced it. they waiting for announcement in iphone 13 first
and the improvement they claimed is too big of a gap for a14.

this event, ipad mini is certainly the most worthy product to buy. especially now with the A15 chip.
A15 chip plus the brand new design makes the ipad mini worthy in any way.

the ipad air is totally redundant now in the ipad line-up if you ask me. haha.

yeah. dont forget usb-c. thats another gamechanger.
ipad mini definitely better than ipad air now.
at the same price u getting a15 and 128gb compared to 64gb in ipad air.

iPad mini starts at 64gb also.

it’s also starting from 64GB for mini.

oh shit thats a bummer.
ddnt know that

I’m getting one to upgrade my current iPad Mini 2.

WiFi
64GB - RM 2299
256GB - RM 2949

WiFi + Cellular
64GB - RM 2949
256GB - RM 3599

Availability: Unknown

It’s really sad that it’s not 128GB.

damn rm3k for 256gb model.
add another 500rm can get ipad pro m1 128gb

Yeah and since I will use this iPad for meetings and video streaming only, I guess I can live with 64GB. I still have iPhone with 256GB and if that is also insufficient, there is iCloud.

For ipad you need to first fix your mind on the size you want. Otherwise you’ll never stop with the price comparison with other models. Mini is good for portability.

Worst part only has two options either 64gb or 256gb.

Frankly speaking 64gb maybe a bit too little but 256gb can be overkilled too.

I think if one is buying lower end iPad either stick with the lowest storage option.

Else will be similar to iPad Air 256gb same price as 128gb iPad Pro. Might as well get iPad Pro for this case.

damn no mini-led screen... but wanna know how good is the screen for dolby vision hdr content.

Look at the price for a mini. It’s really a good size for everyday use but that price. Will keep using my iPad Pro 2020 😂

the screen is so much smaller compared to iPad Air 4..... how to compare
