The editors didn't like
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

Beautifully designed with impressive build quality, Significantly more powerful than the iPad mini 1/2, High-quality display, Battery life is impressive, Perfect size for gaming and portability, iOS still has the best games/apps
Not that significant of an upgrade over the iPad mini 3, iPad Air 2 costs only about $100 more, 16GB base storage is still too low, Camera performance isn't on par with the iPhone
Abstract: The new laminated display, which was introduced with iPad Air 2, now makes images pop even more on iPad mini 4 and viewing the display outdoors is way less painful than with previous versions.The iPad mini 4 has been slimmed down and powered up. Apple's s...
Abstract: Lisa Gade reviews the iPad mini 4, Apple's latest 8” tablet launched in Sept. 2015. The mini 4 has a 7.9” IPS “Retina” display with 2048 x 1536 resolution. It moves up to the Apple A8 dual core CPU clocked at 1.5 GHz with 2 gigs of RAM. As per usual you h...

Delight to use, stacks of storage, very well developed, works beautifully in Apple ecosystem, slim
Large iOS updates, app store functions split between iPhone and iPad, some Apple things like CarPlay don't work
Do note, if you want to get into iPadding at the lowest possible price and you don't envisage needing lots of space of media, you might want to consider going to the full sized current model iPad with its 9.7 inch screen. The 32GB model is $469, or a full...
If this was the iPad mini launched alongside the Air 2, it would have been an easy five stars. However, even with a year in between, it still performs very well for a smaller slate...

The iPad Mini 4 makes the most of iOS 9 and has a number of welcome upgrades, but its high price will have some skipping straight up to larger iPad Air models...

Excellent build quality, Upgraded hardware from last iteration, Good camera, Reduced screen glare, Unbeatable app experience
Expensive, Occasional minor performance issues in testing
The Apple iPad mini 4 is a top-notch small-screen tablet with unparalleled build quality and app support, but it's still hard to justify the jump in price over the iPad mini 2...
Stunning, colorful display, Faster performance, Longer battery life, Much better camera, Lighter and slimmer
Old cases don't fit, Chamfered edge design looking a bit dated now
So why isn't Apple making a big deal out of the mini 4? Honestly, we have no idea because this is the best iPad Mini Apple has ever made. The only thing we can think of is Apple doesn't want to take focus away from the iPad Pro.The iPad mini 4 may look th...
