Outdone by the competition when it comes to battery life
Relatively pricey
IPad mini 3 has slower performance and will age faster
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
But it would have been mega if Apple has decided to throw 3D Touch onto this device. The mini 4 has the ability to run it (in terms of screen clarity)
And while I understand that the brand wants to hold some toys back to ma
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
Storage is non-expandable
Old chipset
Camera unimpressive
It's pricier than Android alternatives
IPad Air 2 and iPad Pro offer more
Still not quite as powerful as iPad Air
No 32GB model
Expensive
IOS needs more tablet additions
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
iPad mini 4 has better internal specs, iPad mini 3 is cheaper for same external design
iPad mini 3 has slower performance and will age faster
On the whole, we think the faster components of the iPad mini 4 are well worth the additional spend. It'll get software upgrades from Apple for a longer time thanks to the slightly faster chipset and additional RAM. Spend the additional cash and get the n...

The iPad mini 4 is faster, slimmer and more accomplished than its iPad mini 3 predecessor. This time around the mini succeeds in finding is place, despite not being as altogether powerful as the iPad Air 2. For most that doesn't mean the mini is a...

We think it's just the right size for a portable entertainment hub So do Apple's petite tablets make sense any more? I've been running with the iPhone 6s Plus in tandem with the mini 4, just to see how often I'd reach for the mini's extra 2.5 inches of s...
Abstract: I'm thinking of getting an iPad mini, but Apple has two for sale: the iPad mini 2 and iPad mini 4, what is the difference and which one should I get? Also, what happened to the iPad mini 3?The iPad mini is a great tablet to buy. It offers all the power an...
Multi-tasking, slim and light, high-quality display, smooth performance
Relatively pricey
The iPad Mini 4 might be a relatively costly tablet compared with other 7in and 8in models, but we think the high price is justified thanks to proper multi-tasking, impressive display, smooth performance and great build quality...
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...
Abstract: Unusually for Apple the iPad mini 4 released as soon as it was announced in September. The tablet was hotly anticipated and many are likely to be adding it to their holiday wish lists. If you're unsure whether to add it to your own wish list or purchase i...
Abstract: The iPad mini is a bit like the child which gets all the hand-me-downs from an older sibling, but that's not to say you shouldn't buy one. The iPad mini 4 just inherited a load of great features from the iPad Air 2, and here we explain the differences bet...
