The editors didn't like
Price is high for an 8-inch tablet. Slower graphics mean some apps and games don't feel as zippy. Small screen makes for cramped typing and multitasking

Vibrant screen, iOS 9 is great for multitasking, Solid performance, Respectable battery life
Rotation lock switch is gone, Still less powerful than the iPad Air 2, Base model only has 16GB of storage
After a yearlong wait, we finally have a properly upgraded iPad Mini. While it adopted the iPad Air 2's super-slim aesthetic and got a similarly great screen, the iPad Mini 4 makes do with Apple's dual-core A8 chipset. Performance is remarkably solid, th...

More times than not, the Verge score is based on the average of the subscores below. However, since this is a non-weighted average, we reserve the right to tweak the overall score if we feel it doesn't reflect our overall assessment and price of the produ...
Super thin and light, Slick performance, Great battery life
iOS 9 a bit glitchy (for now), Pricey, No microSD still
Apple hasn't revolutionised the iPad Mini with this fourth model but it's certainly one of the best sub-10-inch tablets you can buy right now. A desirable combination of slick performance and longevity, combined with some serious media chops, make the Min...

only under good lighting conditions, Proprietary Lightning connector, Bad maintainability, No NFC, High price
The most interesting feature of the Apple iPad Mini 4 is the new operating system iOS 9. The ninth version of the Apple OS not only introduces several new and useful features, it also seems to have a positive effect on the overall performance, which is co...

Apple's new iPad mini 4 is too tall for older iPad mini cases, so we'll be seeing a whole new slew of cases for the device. The first is Apple's own iPad mini 4 Silicone Case ($59). Unlike the company's past Smart Case for iPad mini, Silicone Case is a mo...
Ultra-compact, ultra-portable tablet, Laminated, high color-gamut Retina display, Apple A8 performance, Incredible build quality
Big screen, big experience, Access to Apple Pen or Smart Keyboard, Apple A9 performance, Low, low pricing
Many are going to say the iPad mini 4 is what the iPad mini 3 was meant to be. That sounds like a cliche because it is. It took engineering time to get almost everything from the iPad Air 2 distilled down to 7.9 inches. To get the higher color gamut, lami...

Abstract: Once seen as the future of the iPad, the iPad mini is now a lower-priority device, losing ground to oversized smartphones on one side, and bigger tablets that double as PCs on the other. Too bad, then, that the best iPad mini by far is launching to an inc...

The thinner, lighter design is even easier to hold than past iPad minis. A more powerful processor boots up the iPad and opens apps faster. Rear iSight camera has been upgraded to 8MP, with slomo video recording and burst mode shooting. Colors are sharper
Still often feels like a step down from iPad Air 2. No 3D Touch display. 16GB capacity will be too small for most users. 1.2 MP iPad FaceTime camera feels outdated. The design has been tweaked enough that old iPad mini cases won't fit. Smaller battery mee

Improved performance thanks to the Apple A8 SoC, 2GB of RAM enables iOS 9 multitasking and cuts down on serious annoyances like Safari tab reloading, Screen has a color gamut similar (if not identical) to the full-size iPad, and fusing the LCD panel to th
Doesn't actually fit the performance of the now-year-old iPad Air 2 into a Mini-sized body, The hardware mute/rotation lock switch is missed, Cases and covers from older Minis often won't work with this one

Expensive, Occasional minor performance issues in testing
The Apple iPad mini 4 is a top-notch small-screen tablet with unparalleled build quality and app support, but it's still hard to justify the jump in price over the iPad mini 2...
