The iPad mini is a thin, light, ultraportable tablet that runs iPadOS 27. It has an 8.5-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display and the A20 Pro chip. This model has Wi-Fi connectivity and 128GB of storage for apps, music, movies and more.
The A20 Pro chip includes a 16-core Neural Engine and supports Apple Intelligence and Siri AI. The design resists splashes, water and dust, with an IP67 rating under IEC standard 60529 (maximum depth of 1 meter up to 30 minutes). Resistance is not permanent and may decrease with normal wear. Liquid damage is not covered under warranty.
It works with Apple Pencil Pro and Apple Pencil (USB-C) for writing, drawing and note-taking. iPadOS lets you multitask in two or more windows at once. Touch ID unlocks the tablet, authenticates purchases and signs in to apps. Smart Folio covers and Apple Pencil are sold separately.
