The seventh-generation iPad mini is Apple's smallest tablet, now with the A17 Pro chip and Apple Intelligence support. It keeps the 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display, Touch ID in the top button and USB-C, and adds Wi-Fi 6E and 5G on this cellular model. It suits people who want a one-hand tablet for reading, notes and travel, and it is faster than the previous mini while staying smaller than any full-size iPad. Reviewers praise the size and speed but note the display still refreshes at 60Hz and accessories cost extra.

Owners and reviewers call the iPad mini the best small tablet for reading, notes and travel, and say the A17 Pro makes it noticeably snappier than the last generation. The main complaints are the 60Hz screen and the cost of accessories.
The iPad mini (7th generation) is a compact tablet with an all-screen design and an 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display. The enclosure is thin and light and is made from 100 percent recycled aluminum. This model has 128GB of storage and supports both Wi-Fi and cellular connections, in Starlight.
It runs on the A17 Pro chip, which has a 30 percent faster CPU, 25 percent faster graphics and a 2x faster Neural Engine than the previous-generation iPad mini. The chip powers Apple Intelligence, and the power-efficient design delivers all-day battery life. It runs iPadOS 18.
The cellular model connects to 5G networks, and cellular data plans can be purchased on the iPad with eSIM. Wi-Fi 6E is twice as fast. The USB-C port offers up to 10Gbps throughput and connects to accessories such as cameras, hard drives, docks and external displays up to 4K. Touch ID in the top button unlocks the iPad, logs in to apps and works with Apple Pay. The iPad mini supports Apple Pencil Pro and Apple Pencil (USB-C).
