The latest iPad Mini features a new chip and support for Wi-Fi 6E, which enhances its overall speed and functionality. While reviewers have mixed opinions on the presence of 'jelly scrolling'—an issue where parts of the screen don't refresh synchronously—most found this problem to be minimal or absent. Additionally, the device’s compatibility with the Apple Pencil has received praise, indicating improvements in usability for creative tasks. Starting at $499, the new iPad Mini combines upgraded performance with the portable design that users expect from Apple's tablet line.
