Last year, as soon as the iPad mini6 was released, it became a new generation of gaming machines! The larger body brings better heat dissipation, and the powerful performance of the A15 chip is fully utilized.
Size is the secret of iPad mini's uniqueness, which can take into account both horizontal and vertical screen use scenarios. The vertical screen is used like the enlarged iPhone, and the software application ecology on the mobile phone can be transplanted as is, and the ecosystem is perfect.
Horizontal screen is a game console, 8.3 inches in size, a circle smaller than the iPad, but much larger than the phone. As the "most suitable iOS device for playing games", it is also the "white moonlight" in the hearts of the game party.
iPhone mini6 is not without shortcomings, such as the "jelly screen" that has been criticized by everyone, although it is an A15 chip, but the running memory is only 4GB, and the screen refresh rate is only 60Hz, which is also a place that many game lovers regret.
As Android manufacturers also began to enter the tablet market, iPad sales were also affected, falling 29% in the first quarter. If Apple wants to further consolidate its position, it must improve the experience of using the device.

The pain points of the iPad mini6 only having a 60Hz refresh, running 4GB of memory that is easy to flash back when playing large games, and being forced to retire in the next 2-3 years because the memory is too small have all been improved on the iPad mini7.
Now Android tablets at various price points are emerging in an endless stream, and each company is also improving the functions of multi-screen collaboration and seamless transmission of the same factory equipment. The decline in market share has also made Apple feel the pressure.
iPad mini 6 price: 3799 yuan

This year Apple will continue to release the iPad Pro series of products (definitely M2 chips) at present through the outside view of the little change, and there is a new iPad 10th generation release, through the revelation will use the same design as the iPad Air, and the screen size should be a little smaller than the Air.
Maybe iPad uses a mini led?
It is understood that compared with the current display technology LCD, Mini LED display effect is better, the response speed is faster, the screen is thinner and lighter, the service life is longer, and the power consumption is greatly reduced, and the battery life is longer.
In terms of performance, in fact, the iPad has always been the worst in Apple's product line, the iPad 2021 released last year, is actually an A13 bionic processor, and the iPad mini 6 is an A15 bionic processor. Although the performance of the iPad 2022 has been upgraded, it is a pity that only the A14 bionic processor is still inferior to the A15.

In terms of iPad charging power, Lightning is enough, but we also have to take into account the convenience, smart devices popularize the Type-C interface, iPad insists on using the Lightning interface, and may have to bring an additional charging cable when traveling.
The iPad also abandoned the Lightning interface, giving us hope that the iPhone could also switch to Type-C. However, according to the supply chain, the fastest may not be until the iPhone 16, Apple mobile phone will give up the Lightning interface.
In addition to the above upgrades, Majin Bu claims that Apple's updated 12.9-inch model will also reduce the bezels around the display, but this information has not been further confirmed by other whistleblowers.
In terms of price, the 14.1-inch large-screen iPad Pro may not start at a price of less than 9,000 yuan.
