Why the Apple iPad Mini 7 is worth it
Apple announced and released the iPad Mini 7 in October, less than a month ago, making the slab fresh. While it doesn’t drastically change from the outside compared to the iPad Mini 6 from three years ago, it brings major upgrades under the hood instead.
Equipped with the A17 Pro chipset, the iPad Mini 7 is as powerful and speedy as the iPhone 15 Pro. There’s a six-core CPU clocked at 3.78 GHz and a five-core GPU while the neural engine is twice as fast as the previous chip it replaces. The RAM is now doubled to 8 GB, enabling support for Apple Intelligence features such as Writing Tools and the upcoming Image Playground and Image Wand.
The iPad Mini 7 features the same 8.3-inch screen size in a thin metal build, but the Retina display now supports Smart HDR 4 for more vibrant colors and addresses the jelly-scrolling effect. The panel is also compatible with the Apple Pencil Pro which adds a hover effect and more precise sketching and drawing input.
Additionally, the iPad Mini 7 has a faster USB-C port with data transfer speed of up to 10 Gbps. Plus, there’s faster and more stable Wi-Fi 6E connectivity.
