iPad mini 2021 6th Gen Design
The Apple iPad mini (2021)’s design is much more modern-looking than before. See it now shares the same design language as its iPad Pro siblings. On the front, the bezels are even all around and are much thinner than before. The iPad mini (2021) has an aluminum back and frame with color options of Space Gray, Pink, Purple, and Starlight. On the other hand, the tablet/iPad feels great. Its lightweight has a very good grip and its weight distribution is balanced. There also is a side-mounted fingerprint reader and a new USB-C port at the bottom. Yes, there is software support for it. On the tablet also you will find a magnetic connector for a 2nd Generation Apple Pencil. Stereo speakers are present on each short side of the iPad mini with the quality of the sound being very good.
iPad mini 2021 6th Gen (Wi-Fi + Cellular) Performance
When it comes to performance Apple iPad mini (2021) spots the A15 bionic chipset and 4GB of RAM. This is one of the most powerful tablets on the market you can buy. It should be up to pretty much a task for at least the next three years. One setback though is that it comes with either 64GB or 256GB of storage. This we say might be a setback because the 128GB option is missing. This might end up being frustrating for many people because 64GB is very limiting, and many people won’t actually need the full 256GB. Then there is the issue of the difference in the price of the Apple iPad mini (2021) in Kenya.
Anyway that aside, you can choose between the WiFi and the 5G model too. Also, the Apple iPad mini (2021) iPad OS 15 with revolutionary multitasking, support for a mouse, keyboard, and trackpad, desktop-oriented safari, and pencil support. The biggest change this year is focus profiles. They filter notifications based on what you’re doing and they can initiate actions like dimming the lock screen and letting people know if they can reach you.
Battery
Now Apple iPad mini (2021) has a 5,124 mAh hour battery (Li-Ion, non-removable (19.3 Wh)). It gets an average of 10 hours and 45 minutes of endurance with usage. Included in its package is a 20W fast charger. This gets it from 0 to 35% in half an hour. And to 70% in one hour. The remaining 30% will be achieved way slower.
Display
One of the most important features of a tablet is the screen. And Apple iPad mini (2021) features an 8.3 inch IPS LCD which has 327 PPI. This is good for a tablet. Unlike previous years, the mini screen has a 3:2 aspect ratio and trendy round corners. As far as color accuracy is concerned, the iPad mini (2021) is fantastic with a wide color gamut and true tone technology. Yes! Overall it’s a great display. Probably the jelly effect when scrolling in portrait mode might raise some eyebrows. But Apple says that this is normal for an LCD screen. And there isn’t a software fix for this.
Cameras
There is a single camera on the back of the Apple iPad mini (2021) and a single camera on the front. During the day, the 12 MP, f/2.4, 122Ëš (ultrawide) camera on the back captures pictures with plenty of resolved detail. Shots are sharp with good dynamic range and had excellent color accuracy. This camera can shoot videos of the 4k at 60 FPS. Its videos are stabilized and they look outstanding.
The 12-megapixel front-facing camera has a 122-degree field of view making it wider than other selfie snappers. If you take normal shots with it, you’ll get some of the best wide selfies on arguably any tablet at this price point. Thanks to the wide field of view there is a new feature called the center stage. It works in fit FaceTime, video calls and the tablet automatically zooms in and pans to keep you in the center of the frame. If someone else enters the frame, it zooms out. So both of you are visible.
Our take
Despite the same small form factor of the Apple iPad mini (2021), it has had some pretty big changes. Some of these include the new A15 Bionic chipset, new cameras, and a bigger display. We think it is one of the best tablets you can buy.
