Apple has finally refreshed its smallest iPad with the introduction of the new iPad mini 2024.
The iPad mini 2024 has minor improvements over its predecessor. The overall design and layout is the same. Only this time, its been upgraded to the A17 Pro chip, the same one found on last year’s iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max.
Having this chip means it will support the AI features of Apple Intelligence, which will be available via the iPadOS 18.1 update that’s coming later this month.
Apple has also upgraded the base storage to 128GB from 64GB, with the top-of-the-line variant sporting 512GB. It also has a more modern WiFi 6E connectivity, Bluetooth 5.3, and faster USB-C 3.0 with up to 10Gbps data transfers, DisplayPort with up to 4K resolution at 60Hz, and 20W charging support.
Like the model that came out in 2021, this iPad mini A17 Pro model still has an 8.3-inch IPS display with a 2266 x 1488 resolution, a tall 3:2 aspect ratio, and 60Hz refresh rate. If you want 120Hz, you still have to spend more on the iPad Pro models.
The same 12-megapixel cameras are here, but now with better image processing and Smart HDR 4 support thanks to the updated chip. The battery still lasts up to 10 hours of web browsing. TouchID for security is also here.
