Got the 1st version of iPad Mini when it first came out paying full price. Still have it and it works. Got my iPad Pro and don't seem much reason to upgrade to the Mini 7. Was hoping for an M series chipset. 2 or 3 would have been nice. Unless they plan that for the iPad Mini "Pro".
Why is that? Do you actually think that most people are buying the iPad Mini because it’s cheaper? I can assure you that most iPad Mini buyers choose it due to size and form factor. The mini is my most used iPad, and if Apple one day makes a Mini Pro with OLED and 120hz, I’ll be first in line to buy it, even with Pro prices.
Oled or even just the 120Hz are such good features, still missing from the Mini. And literally the main reason I went for the Pro over the Air x.x I wouldn't be very surprised if Apple actually does split the iPad Mini in the future into "normal" and "Pro" versions, just so that they can keep the better screen behind a higher price.
Starts at 599 in Germany. 729 for the 256 GB. Was planning to get it in addition to my iPad Pro 11 4th gen. Now I think I am done with apple and switching to Android a month after getting the Apple Watch 10.
Also, the cellular model can'y use physical SIM cards. So enjoy using those data-only eSIM's the major carriers totally have, or pay for a whole new line.
I bought mini6 when it release, it’s such a joy for use and I was waiting for that Oled and faster chip for game. And look at what we got, 3 years apple you could have done a lot in 3 years.
Or maybe you as the consumer could try to be a little less greedy always demanding more and more? You said the iPad mini was a joy and that’s not enough? You want each couple of years more and more until when? When are you gonna be satisfied? Greedy sob‘s…….
1 year doesn't mean a chip is suddenly obsolete. The ipad mini is still larger than an iPhone 15 pro max and it costs $500. That's quite the discount. Whoever actually buys ipad mini is another story tho lol
@@smittyvanjagermanjenson182 IMO it wasn’t the way to go. The A17 pro and M3 chips are based on the more expensive and un efficient 3nm process; while the A18’s and M4’s are made on the cheaper, and more refined process. Now the mini has a “pro chip”, “pro pencil” but an ancient display.

It seems to be a weird attempt at selling you a smaller ipad made from newer iPhone chips to feel slightly more premium. I'm waiting for the next Base iPad since it should be capable of all the latest apple stuff, but apple may try hold off until the A17 pro or M1 are considered more outdated

I was waiting for the iPad mini 7 but a couple of months ago I bought the iPad Pro M4 11 inch which is only slightly bigger than the iPad mini 7 But far more powerful and last much longer. Also A17 chip not enough for mini 7. I’m glad I made the right choice on the iPad Pro M4 11 inch a far superior better product and still very portable like the mini 7.
I bought an iPad 2 recently. Not a part of the current Apple line, but at £16,- it was cheaper than printing out a 550-page railway rulebook on the printers at my local library. 👍 The thing I don't get is that my (secondhand) iPad 2 lasts far longer from 50% charge than an iPad Pro in super eco mode does from 100%... 🔋📉🤔
I think this A17 lite or something , they said it's a bit toned down version of A17 , I don't know if it's same ipad mini or variant tho.. But that feels more apple like.. They wont' give full a17 pro.
The a17 Pro is better than the a18 for the iPad mini. The 17 pro has a usb 3 controller while the normal a18 has usb 2. There’s some decoding bits as well but the usb controller is the main benefit
00:35 ffs lmao, yes time did tell. Some of their devices are locked behind digital drm, if you "cant connect to the activation server" your device is e-waste, this company is 💩
I was waiting for this but wanted a pro performance in the mini package. There is no way I'd even consider a mini 7. Apple are fully aware of what customers wanted but ignored them. I guess they intend to pull it because I can't imagine that sales will be good.
Apple always makes sure their customers need a reason to have as many apple devices as possible. So, when the first iphone arrived, it was the first (and I think only) smart phone to have a chip dedicated to blocking physical keyboards, like the Targus Stowaway, from being able to hook up to it. Because some people, like me, would use that instead of a laptop! Unacceptable (to the investors). It was at that time, way back when, I knew I would never enter into the Apple ecosystem. Any company that spends money finding ways to hamstring it's own products isn't for me.
@@bar10ml44 shame man, I'm sorry to hear that. There aren't really any companies on our side anymore. It's really sad. Hope you find something that suites your needs well enough at least. Personally, as a broke person, I get free/cheap android phones, and cheap windows laptops. Always has worked great for me. $0-40 for the phone, $250 for a laptop. Don't need to replace them too often. I don't know how much cheaper you can get really. Ps: I am not tech savy at all, I can't fix broken things. Those are the prices I pay for new things.
The big screen is definitely worth it. It's called a tablet for a reason. You'll probably have to squint or look closer when watching movies or browsing the web with the mini.
To me lazy upgrade....I will just buy a refurbished Mini 6 from Apple and save a bunch of money....I don’t care about the pencil or AI (I am an investor though so I hope everyone else runs out and buys the new Mini 7) good video by the way!
Why is everybody so salty? The Mini is not necessarily designed for the wider market. It's kind of a niche product. I have a full spec Mini 6 and I love it. The Mini 7 has been spiffed up further. Be happy people. Don't live down in the dumps!
Tbh, I don't really mind the lack of improvement made to the mini, I'm just glad they actually made another one, i use my mini 6 for flying and one day it will no longer support foreflight, and the regular ipads are just too big to reasonably have in the cockpit
$1124 for the mini here in Sweden is ridiculous, only extra 512GB but nothing else. This is next level inflation and Apple tax. Not getting an OLED for a $1000+ tablet is robbery!
I love the size of the Mini. Versatile. I can do ipad stuff in a small form factor. Great for doctors. Apple sells just what they believe is good for you, most of the time, in very cheap-made but expensive products. Hopefully, also for artists, it is compatible with the new pencil.
My wife and I wanted the new mini, and we actually prefer led over oled, but having to get the latest pencil is a turnoff. We will both stick with the M1 Air.

I love the videos, keep up the great work 👏
Sam Tucker the golden voice
i love your cheeky take on the mini ❤❤😂
The a17 Pro is better than the a18 for the iPad mini. The 17 pro has a usb 3 controller while the normal a18 has usb 2. There’s some decoding bits as well but the usb controller is the main benefit
Samtime is a refreshing channel
00:35 ffs lmao, yes time did tell. Some of their devices are locked behind digital drm, if you "cant connect to the activation server" your device is e-waste, this company is 💩
Magical and game-changing
🤯 the iPad still has a mini. The iPhone does not?! 🤯 x2!
The iPad mini sells well, the iPhone mini did not. You may want an iPhone mini, but not enough people do to make a profit
I was waiting for this but wanted a pro performance in the mini package. There is no way I'd even consider a mini 7. Apple are fully aware of what customers wanted but ignored them. I guess they intend to pull it because I can't imagine that sales will be good.
Apple always makes sure their customers need a reason to have as many apple devices as possible.
So, when the first iphone arrived, it was the first (and I think only) smart phone to have a chip dedicated to blocking physical keyboards, like the Targus Stowaway, from being able to hook up to it.
Because some people, like me, would use that instead of a laptop! Unacceptable (to the investors).
It was at that time, way back when, I knew I would never enter into the Apple ecosystem. Any company that spends money finding ways to hamstring it's own products isn't for me.
@ I do get it. Unfortunately I'm not very tech oriented and now disabled. I reluctantly stick with the brand but I get grumpy. Cheers from London.
@@bar10ml44 shame man, I'm sorry to hear that.
There aren't really any companies on our side anymore. It's really sad. Hope you find something that suites your needs well enough at least.
Personally, as a broke person, I get free/cheap android phones, and cheap windows laptops. Always has worked great for me. $0-40 for the phone, $250 for a laptop. Don't need to replace them too often. I don't know how much cheaper you can get really.
Ps: I am not tech savy at all, I can't fix broken things. Those are the prices I pay for new things.
incredible update 🎉
60hz in 2024
You forgot it has 8 GB of RAM.
“500 dollars please” plus 200 usd 😉🤣
Is It mad to change my iPad Pro m2 for this one fue to portability ? Or m2 is way better
The big screen is definitely worth it. It's called a tablet for a reason. You'll probably have to squint or look closer when watching movies or browsing the web with the mini.
Guess I'll be keeping the one i have for at least one more generation
one generation is about 25 years, good on you!
A Bootylicious reference in 2024 😂😂😂
0:32 well actually it also uses the Apple Pencil usb-c
Everything aside, those Bezels are very 2011 holy hell
When did satire become the truth!!!
If that blows your mind, then when did conspiracy theories become the news but just 6 months ahead of time.
To me lazy upgrade....I will just buy a refurbished Mini 6 from Apple and save a bunch of money....I don’t care about the pencil or AI (I am an investor though so I hope everyone else runs out and buys the new Mini 7) good video by the way!
Save big on the all new iBox.
No charger, no phone just iAir in the iBox.
* Box not included.
* the iAir is sold separately
Why is everybody so salty? The Mini is not necessarily designed for the wider market. It's kind of a niche product. I have a full spec Mini 6 and I love it. The Mini 7 has been spiffed up further. Be happy people. Don't live down in the dumps!
Tbh, I don't really mind the lack of improvement made to the mini, I'm just glad they actually made another one, i use my mini 6 for flying and one day it will no longer support foreflight, and the regular ipads are just too big to reasonably have in the cockpit
“Ish” loved it!
This was too funny when he mentioned the display 😂
The "FU and have a great day" Tim Cook edit always gets me 🤣
The only real review channel.
$1124 for the mini here in Sweden is ridiculous, only extra 512GB but nothing else. This is next level inflation and Apple tax. Not getting an OLED for a $1000+ tablet is robbery!
I remember when computers used to get significant chip upgrades and it was a big deal.
I'm just genuinely surprised how many people buy apple products even though since the last 5 years there have been no "major" improvements
Very funny man....loved it.
I love the size of the Mini. Versatile. I can do ipad stuff in a small form factor. Great for doctors. Apple sells just what they believe is good for you, most of the time, in very cheap-made but expensive products. Hopefully, also for artists, it is compatible with the new pencil.
This is one of the vids that ceacka me up
Apple : We are evolving.
But backwards.
UK: We're with Apple! 🇬🇧💨🇪🇺😉
"it's not only good, it's good enough." bruh 😅
My wife and I wanted the new mini, and we actually prefer led over oled, but having to get the latest pencil is a turnoff. We will both stick with the M1 Air.
I'm glad with my tab s9 ☺️
Please do not bully Android users🤐
Hey, thanks heaps tariq! But gotta share the roasting for all the tech brands. The only one that's immune is BlackBerry. BlackBerry's had it hard enough 😅. Stay FUNKY!
The unnivation I've been waiting for.
Your points are valid however
I’m getting it

This individual has a remarkably clever and creative approach, as they take the branding and transform the message into something novel and meaningful.
😂😂😂 it's not mini upgrade it's the BIG upgrade ever, we print 2024 in the box 🤣🤣🤣
