iPad Mini 7 Launch Imminent with Boosted Performance

iPad Mini 7 Launch Imminent with Boosted Performance

Apple introduced the iPad Mini 6 in September 2021. Initially, the tablet was anticipated to be released around the same period last year, but that did not happen. However, there are indications that Apple might finally unveil the updated model by the end of this year.

The source of this information is Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, who speculates about an upcoming release. He noted that many Apple stores are experiencing low inventory levels of the current iPad mini across various configurations, and internally, the device is deemed “constrained” by Apple. Gurman suggests it would not be surprising to see a successor to the iPad Mini 6 soon, potentially enhanced with AI capabilities, as Apple has incorporated several AI features into iOS and iPadOS.

Anticipated Release Date

Multiple reports suggest that Apple is likely to introduce this new product at a press event in September or October this year.

Insights on the iPad Mini 7

The iPad Mini 7 is expected to maintain the traditional design and look of its predecessor. The device's display size and weight might remain unchanged. For reference, the iPad Mini 6 weighs 293 g (Wi-Fi) / 297 g (Wi-Fi + Cellular), includes a 19.3 Wh battery, and is only 6.3 mm thick.

The previous model had issues with the scrolling experience, displaying a jelly effect. According to reports, the iPad Mini 7 will feature a new display controller to address this issue. This improvement will significantly enhance the screen's responsiveness, ensuring smooth and consistent content scrolling, providing users with a more pleasant visual experience. The device will continue to use an IPS LCD panel, as with the previous model.

Potential Enhancements

Another possible upgrade could be in memory and storage, with RAM potentially increasing from 4GB to 8GB. Storage might standardize at 128GB, which should enhance multitasking capabilities.

Performance-wise, the sixth-generation iPad mini comes with an A15 chip, and analysts believe the “main selling point” of the iPad Mini 7 will be its chip.
