Questions and answers

Is the iPad mini (A17 Pro) worth it?
If you want a small, powerful tablet for note-taking, gaming, and on-the-go use, it's a strong choice. But if you need a larger screen or keyboard support, consider the iPad Air.
Does it support Apple Pencil Pro?
Yes, it works with Apple Pencil Pro, which adds squeeze and barrel roll gestures. The older Apple Pencil (USB-C) is also compatible.
How is the battery life?
Apple claims all-day battery life, and reviewers generally get around 10 hours of mixed use. Heavy gaming will drain it faster.

The box includes the iPad mini, a USB-C charge cable, and a 20W power adapter. No Apple Pencil or keyboard is included.
Does it have a headphone jack?
No, there is no 3.5mm headphone jack. You'll need USB-C or Bluetooth headphones.
