Apple adds this iPad model in obsolete product category

In December last year, Macrumours reported that Apple may soon add the iPad Mini model in the list of obsolete products.

Best iPad deals November 2023: Cheapest iPad, Pro, Air and Mini

Since the debut of the original iPad in 2010, Apple’s tablets have led the way in terms of creating a portable device that can stream media, play games, browse the web, edit audio, pictures and video and even double up as a laptop. The iPad has managed to become one of the most popular tablets, despite the high price, and although the tech giant rarely takes part in sales, savvy shoppers can often pick up the iPad with a 5-10 per cent discount at select retailers.

The ninth-generation iPad is still a fast and powerful tablet with a great screen and full-sounding stereo speakers. It works with the Apple pencil and the smart keyboard too, unlocking extra functionality for anyone who wants to stay productive while on the move.

The starlight colourway of the fifth-generation iPad Air is currently reduced by £40 at Amazon. Launched last year, this model offers up to nine hours of battery life, touch ID for easier authentication – which is built into the button on the top of the device – a 12MP wide rear camera and 12MP ultra-wide front camera.

It includes features common to the bigger tablet, such as a flat-edge design, compatibility with the second-generation Apple pencil (which snaps onto the side magnetically) and an all-screen front. “It has the best unlock setup of any iPad – a sophisticated and convenient touch ID button,” our writer said in their review. In terms of a slick, capable tablet you can take anywhere, the iPad mini has the lot.” A small amount, yes, but considering it’s the newest model, the saving is pretty good.

“The large iPad Pro is especially brilliant (literally, thanks to the mini LED backlighting that brightens everything) and has a super-fast processor that handles everything you throw at it with ease,” our writer said in their review. The 2021 model of the top-of-the-range iPad pro is a fiercely powerful device, with Apple’s blazing-fast M1 chip thrumming away behind its luscious, 12.9in, edge-to-edge retina display.

Featuring a 10-hour run-time, 8GB RAM, ultra-wide cameras and blisteringly fast speed, the 128GB space grey version currently has £160 off at Laptops Direct. If you’re on a tighter budget, it’s definitely worth considering buying a refurbished iPad from Apple directly or from a third-party reseller, such as Amazon or MusicMagpie.

All refurbished products on Apple’s website are given a new battery and outer shell, contain all the same manuals and accessories and come in a new white box, plus you get one year’s warranty – the same as if you had bought a brand-new iPad. They’re inspected for damage, fully tested to ensure all of the functions are working, and missing or broken parts are replaced, the item is fully cleaned, and only then will it be sold – at a discount.

If your iPad breaks within a year, Amazon will either replace it or give you a refund. MusicMagpie says every iPad or tablet sold on its website store goes through an extensive in-house refurbishment process, performing more than 90 tests before they’re resold.

You’re covered for 12 months if you find a technical defect, and if you’re not happy, you’ve got a 14-day money-back guarantee. “Pristine” products will be in an excellent condition cosmetically, “very good” devices will have some small signs of use, and “good” devices will have moderate signs of wear and tear.

Apple iPad Mini (7th gen) wishlist: All the features I want to see

Some of us prefer a smaller pad that can be easily carried but offers more screen real estate than the typical smartphone. While some good small Android tablets are out there, none are quite as convincing as Apple’s iPad Mini series.

It is designed beautifully, has excellent performance, solid battery life, and you can add 5G connectivity. This connector can transfer both data and power, making it a very convenient addition I wish to see in the next iPad Mini.

While the 7th gen iPad Mini manages to get much thinner bottom and top bezels, largely thanks to the removal of the home button, these are still pretty significant. In our iPad Mini (6th generation) review we mention that the included 20W charger doesn’t do much to juice up the device quickly. The iPad Mini (6th generation) Liquid Retina IPS LCD display is pretty good, but it could be better. Popular tech Twitter user @FromTron shared a Korean forum post in late 2021, in which it was rumored that Samsung Display shipped an 8.3-inch screen with a 120Hz refresh rate for testing.

Current Apple devices with 120Hz refresh rates label this feature as “ProMotion.”

While I’m hoping for higher refresh rates like what ProMotion offers in other products, analyst Ross Young mentioned on Twitter that this isn’t likely the case.

We’ve become accustomed to seeing these little pads carrying powerful processors, usually the same as their iPhone counterparts. The 2021 iPad Mini came with the same Apple A15 Bionic processor the iPhone 13 series carried in 2021 when both launched.

Similarly, I hope (and expect) Apple to put a next-gen chipset in its next iPad Mini. Especially considering noted analyst Ming-Chi Kuo mentioned that the tablet would have an upgraded processor and that it would be a “main selling point.”

They tend to be a secondary addition to more significant announcements, and Apple is no longer constantly releasing one yearly. Additionally, we’ve started to hear rumors of the next-gen iPad Mini 7, even if very few.
