Apple announces new iPad and iPad Mini with major improvements

Apple unveils new iPad and iPad Mini with major improvements to its design, screen size, performance, camera quality, battery life, and more.

The ipad mini 6 is a new iPad that has been released by Apple. It includes major improvements over the previous model, including a faster processor, better camera, and more storage space.

On Tuesday, Apple held an online event to unveil the new iPad and iPad Mini, both of which include substantial improvements. The new iPad costs $329, which places it squarely in the smartphone category and makes it more accessible to a broader audience.

The new iPad also has a 12MP ultrawide camera with Center Stage capability. The Bionic A13 chip has also been upgraded. The new iPad mini has a USB-C connector as well as 5G connectivity. A new 12 MP camera on the back allows for 4K recording. The same 12MP ultrawide camera is used on the front, which also supports Center Stage.

The statement also contains the official release date for iPadOS 15, which will be available on September 20th for all iPad mini 4 and later devices, iPad Air 2 and later models, iPad 5th Gen and later models, and all iPad Pro models.

Apple Watch Series 7 is now available for $399.


The new iPad has a new A13 Bionic processor, a 10.2-inch Retina display with True Tone support, and a new 12MP ultrawide camera with Center Stage compatibility. In addition, the new iPad comes with iPadOS 15 pre-installed.

You also get compatibility for the first-generation Apple Pencil, as well as the possibility of almost doubling the capacity over the previous version, since this one comes in 64GB and 256GB storage options.

The tablet will be available for presale beginning Tuesday, with the WiFi-only model starting at a startling $329, making the new iPad more affordable to a broader audience. On the 24th of September, availability will begin.


While the appearance of the iPad mini has stayed mostly unchanged since its introduction in 2012, the latest model has smaller bezels and a redesigned shell with rounded edges. The screen is significantly bigger, measuring 8.3 inches as opposed to 7.9 inches on the previous model. The panel’s technology, however, remains liquid display rather than the rumored Mini LED display.

On the performance front, the Bionic A15 Chip provides a 40% boost in performance, while the 5-core GPU provides an 80% boost in graphics performance. In terms of software, the smartphone comes pre-installed with iOS 15. 

It has a USB-C connection, as previously stated, which allows for additional connectivity possibilities, including devices like cameras with speeds up to 5Gbps. Up front, there’s a new 12MP ultrawide camera that supports Center Stage, as well as 5G compatibility up to 3.5 gigabits per second and WiFi 6 support if you’re relying on WiFi.
