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

Only available in 128GB
Shorter battery life than predecessors
Dated design
Average cameras

Still not quite as powerful as iPad Air

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
There are cheaper tablets - cheaper iPads even - but if you can afford to buy the iPad mini 4 you won't be disappointed. It finally has a great screen and while it can't match the more powerful iPad Air 2, it's got more than enough poke to satisfy demandi...
Abstract: Apple has just unveiled its new iPad mini 4 , which unlike its predecessor has some pretty significant spec bumps to make it thinner, lighter and speedier. Last year, we compared the iPad mini 3 with the Tesco Hudl 2 and decided that the iPad mini 3 wasn'...

Abstract: IPad Pro is not the only tablet that has now seen the light in the event of Cupertino: the iPad mini 4, the true successor of the first iPad mini Retina has just been introduced to bring improvements finally we would have liked to see and not found in the...
Abstract: The iPad Mini 3 stuck out like a sore thumb during its year-long existence. Whereas the iPad Mini 2 was the equal of the original iPad Air in every way but size, the iPad Mini 3 lagged behind the iPad Air 2. Apart from its Touch ID fingerprint sensor, it...
Abstract: For many people, the tablet era began in 2010 with the launch of the original 9.7-inch iPad. But tablet devices have a much longer history than that. For example, I recall seeing Bill Gates show off the first prototype Windows tablet at Comdex in Las Vega...
Abstract: Apple recently lowered the price of the 128GB iPad mini 4 knocking $100 off the price while also introducing a new 9.7-inch iPad at an amazing introductory price of $329. However, does the new lower cost of the 128GB iPad mini 4 make it a compelling purch...

Abstract: I wondered, though, does all this new speed – and RAM – matter for daily use? I moved to the iPad mini 4 right around the time iOS 9 was released and hadn't had any long-term experience with iOS 9 on my previous model. With that I recently went back to th...

It's clear why this is a tough decision, since both devices are so similar in many ways. They both have similar displays and iOS 9 and TouchWiz have common features. But the design is a bit different, addressing a different type of customers (premium vs p...

Great display, Premium design, Good cameras, Multitasking, Reasonable battery life
Only 16GB storage for the base model, No microSD storage, A bit expensive, Performance is a bit under iPad Air 2, Audio quality could be improved
This year we got (at last) a good iPad Mini, there are a lot of great and improved features and although it has been claimed to be a shrunken iPad Air 2, it clearly isn't, hardware-wise it's quite different.So, if you want a good, lightweight tablet, with...
