After all, the rumors proved to be true. In the event that took place on Tuesday,
Apple finally confirmed the existence and proceeded to introduce the new
iPad Mini, the smallest of the family.
We must remember that this is the device that Steve Jobs did not want
to see on the market, but since Cook took over, things changed.
As usual, the tablet comes in two colors: white and black. Measuring only
7.2mm thick and weighs just
308 grams of. The device's screen is
7.9 inches and the resolution is similar to the iPad 2, ie
1024 × 768 pixels.
According to Apple, the new tablet is ideal for reading emails, surf
the web, view photos and use iLife applications, among other things. In any case, nothing can be done in any of the other iPad.
Regarding the hardware of the iPad Mini, below deck we have a dual-core A5 processor, HD FaceTime front camera and a 5 megapixel rear camera that can record HD videos. Of course it also has the Lightning connector and include WiFi and LTE connectivity. Regarding the battery, has a battery life of 10 hours.
Mini iPad memory varies by device model. The 16GB model with WiFi and will cost $ 330, with 32GB while its price is $ 430. If you want it with 64GB will cost $ 520. If you also want to have LTE, adds about $ 130 to each model. The launch will be on November 2, but since 26 October, we pre-order.
