With the device’s predecessor having come out as far back as 2015, surprisingly enough, the exterior of the new model remained almost identical to its 4th generation sibling. With the exception of screen size, the iPad mini 5 (2019) appears to be of extreme similarity to the released alongside it 10.5-inch iPad Air. Its 2048 x 1536 display makes the latest iPad mini Apple’s smallest tablet to date. The newest iPad mini remains the Touch ID Home button together with the headphone jack, still charging via Lightning, unlike the newest iPad Pro models requiring USB-C. (more…)

The 2018 model’s A12X Bionic chip is described as the most powerful chip Apple had produced at the time of the device’s launch.

Powered by the Apple A12X processor, the iPad is claimed to have up to 10 hours of browsing time (9 hours if using cellular data), simultaneously allowing the faster running of applications. The 2018 model is presented by Apple as being capable of serving as a full-time PC replacement. (more…)
