iPad Mini Released - Apple Announces 7.8 Inch iPad Mini

 

 

If you have followed our recent posts, we were discussing about today's event where Apple had plans to announce new iPad. We'll, it is indeed true and here is the big news, Apple has just announced new iPad Mini with a smaller screen which is quite obvious to Eddy Cue's statement that there exists a 7 inch tablet market and so Apple needs to have product of their own right into that market. The new iPad mini has the same display when talking about pixels so the developers need not make new apps to support iPad mini. In Fact  they wouldn't even have to update their existing apps, the apps will just work as if they were designed for iPad mini. 

Here's an overview of the new features of iPad Mini:

Its 7.2 mm thin and that makes it 23% thinner than the iPad and as Phil says, it is as thin as a pencil. The new iPad mini is 53% lighter than the original iPad and is as lighter as a note pad. iPad mini comes in both white as well as black color. Compared with Nexus 7, iPad mini is a clear winner ( we'll discuss about this later) There are over 275,000 apps that are ready and designed specifically for the iPad and since iPad mini shares the same display resolution, these apps work for iPad mini too. The new iPad mini features a dual core A5 chip It has an improved Facetime camera with an amazing 5 mp rear camera. iPad mini is designed to work on LTE networks New improved reversible lightening connector. All these features, yet the iPad mini provides a stunning 10 hours of battery backup. Stylish smart covers in various colors. The new iPad mini will start from a price range of $329

iPad Mini And Redesigned iPad With Lightening Connector Releasing Tomorrow

Tomorrow is the big day when Apple is going to announce a redesigned iPad mini and as the name suggests,, this iPad will be of a smaller size with 7.85 inch diagonally. The reason for introducing a 7 inch iPad is to compete with Google's Nexus 7 and Amazon's Kindle Fire. It is quite obvious that the new iPad mini will feature a lightening connector like that of iPhone 5.

The concept of a 7 inch iPad was earlier coined while Steve Jobs was still alive but he wouldn't accept it considering it as a waste because of the smaller screen size and instead proposed 10 inch screen as a minimum requirement. The ideology behind the 7 inch iPad came from Apple's senior vice president, Eddy Cue who strongly believes that there is a market in 7 inch screen devices and hence Apple should have a smaller iPad too.

It is a known fact that Apple gives a lot of thinking before releasing a product and the reason behind having a 7.85 inch iPad instead of 7 inch is because this will help the developers an easy way to upgrade their apps. With a 7.85 inch screen, the iPad mini can still run all the applications that run on iPad and iPhone. The only work that developers will have to upgrade their apps would be to adjust the corners to match the iPad mini screen.

Internally, the iPad mini is believed to be built using the same components as last year's iPad 2. That means the same CPU (A5), same RAM (512 MB) and same GPU. It also means the screen is not expected to be a "Retina" display. Instead, it will be same 1024x768 resolution as the iPad 2 -- though at a higher pixel density due to the smaller screen. - Macrumors
