IPad mini 4 is slower
Has lowerend specs
And doesn't have Apple Pencil nor Smart Keyboard support
IPad Pro 9.7 is heavier
Not as portable and is more expensive
This will come as no surprise

Screen is a bit small for Split View in iOS 9
Not as powerful as the iPad Air 2
IPad mini 2 far cheaper
Price is high for an 8-inch tablet. Slower graphics mean some apps and games don't feel as zippy. Small screen makes for cramped typing and multitasking
Older processor
No 3D touch
Not quite as powerful as iPad Pro 9.7
No screen improvements
Only available in 128GB
Shorter battery life than predecessors
Dated design
Average cameras
FaceTime camera is still a measly 1.2MP
No 3D Touch

There is no microSD card slot
So the memory cannot be expanded
There is no HDMI port
So you can't easily watch images or videos from the iPad on your TV unless you invest in a TV streaming device

The iPad mini 4 is going to be an underground hit for Apple. While the mini 3 was woefully disappointing (coming with literally just Touch ID and a new color as upgrades over the mini 2), there's a real step forward here.The mini 4 should have been launch...

Not quite as powerful as iPad Pro 9.7, no screen improvements, only available in 128GB, shorter battery life than predecessors
The iPad mini 4 is a great little tablet that comes in at a price that reflects its quality and capabilities. It looks gorgeous, is a breeze to use and leaves little to be desired. It's a shame that Apple has kept the 16GB model, as we were really hoping...

In many ways, the iPad mini remains the small tablet to beat. The performance enhancements in this version keep it ahead of its competitors, and iOS 9 is now well ahead of Android as a tablet operating system for most people. The quality of third-party ap...

iPad Mini 4 – Camera The iPad Mini 4 has a camera on the rear, and although the 8-megapixel iSight unit with an f/2.4 aperture is perfectly adequate, I'm going to take a guess and say that the smartphone in your pocket can probably do a much better job. P...
