Small Tablet, High Performance: Does Apple Introduce the iPad mini Pro?

NAfter iPad Pro and iPad Air, Apple’s smallest tablet will now have a new look: iPad mini. At least there have been rumors about this for a long time. The problem: In the past, they were more brutal than the other. Now things are speeding up again. The background is a post on a Korean blog NavierAccordingly, Apple plans to release the tablet as iPad mini Pro in the second half of 2021.

Naver authors also want to know details about the device. The screen size of the tablet should be 8.2 inches. This should make the screen larger than the current iPad mini (7.9 inches). The case is broader but less high-profile. This coincides with the information provided by the Chinese “spokesperson” about the short message service Weibo It predicts a small “full screen” iPad, similar to the new iPad Air or iPad Pro. Sources behind it? nothing!

Therefore, information should be enjoyed with less anticipation and more caution. Mac rumors It indicates, for example, that one does not know how reliable the information from Naver is. Meanwhile, the one who often hits the mark with his ads is analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. He had already expected a larger iPad mini in May 2020. Screen diagonal: 8.4 to 9 inches.

Japanese blogger Mac Otakara is also relatively accurate. We are talking about an iPad mini with an 8.4-inch screen. According to the Japanese, little has to be changed in the design, a little thinner frame, but maybe still with the Home button including this Touch-ID fingerprint sensor it looks like an iPad mini in the style of iPad Air 3 (or iPad Pro 10.5) and less like a small iPad Pro. For this tablet it should appear earlier, namely in March 2021. It is unlikely that it will be a device after that with the new type of miniature LED display that Kuo has predicted. The iPad Pro is preferred here.
