An ultraportable design
Great battery life and it's the most affordable tablet with access to the iOS App Store. Upgradeable to iOS 10 later this year.
Apple has stuck with the same design as last year’s iPad mini
Which in itself is a departure from the tapered look of previous iPads – and it’s still as impressive as when it was first revealed. It’s a slimline and lightweight slate that feels solid in the hand thanks to the premium build quality
And it weighs hardly anything. It's the more portable flavour of iPad

Higher price
Iterative evolution
Expensive
Android and Amazon tablets and even Windows laptops are available for less. Base model includes only 16GB of nonexpandable storage. It's missing the Touch ID fingerprint sensor and splitscreen feature found on newer iPads
Tablets are not exactly known for their brilliant sound quality
And the new iPad mini is no exception either. The stereo speakers included on the mini will certainly make do for occasional listening
But they’re not as loud as the pair found on the iPad Air
And they’re also positioned awkwardly. When using the mini
It’s easy to cover up the speakers when held on its side such as when you’re pl

Marginally inferior colours compared to Air's screen

Camera quality has not improved, A hair thicker and heavier than iPad Mini, $400 price tag is steep for a compact tablet, No fingerprint sensor, Some users complain about iOS 7's new look
The iPad Mini 2 is our favorite tablet of 2013. With a powerful 64-bit A7 processor and a high-resolution ‘Retina' screen, it finishes the job that Apple started with the first iPad Mini started. At $400, it's a lot more expensive than other compact tab...
