Apple with its Retina display, the iPad mini is good ... - Metronews

Gone is the time when we were talking about a low cost ipad to designate the iPad mini. With Retina display and A7 chip now integrated into the 7.9-inch tablet, Apple has clearly stated its intention not to do so in half measures and not to offer a tablet at a discount. Here is the tablet to both “P”: power and pixels

.

Specifically, the mini iPad will not change visually, apart from its slightly thicker (7.5 against 7.2 mm for the first generation). In hand, it’s just if it weighs from 331 grams against 308 before. Why? Because Apple has made way for a Retina display with a much better quality similar to the classic iPad resolution is 2048 x 1536 pixels (or 326 pixels per inch).

A new chip and a revised upwards

for iPad Air, the new chip A7 (and the motion sensor M7) integrated into the mini iPad Retina strongly boosts the device. No delay is noticeable, even with the most demanding applications. We can not wait to test big plays on either tablets. But the first glimpse a few minutes after the Apple keynote has already enabled us to determine its capabilities.

Pricewise, Apple has not been afraid to raise rates. The Retina iPad mini is sold 399 euros (16GB, Wi-Fi) when its predecessor is sold to date 339 euros. Moreover, it will continue to be sold but with a discount of 40 euros: 299 euros for the 16GB version Wi-Fi (the only remaining marketed). As for the launch date, it has not been determined precisely. Apple, however, said it would be “sometime in November.” Perfect to find under the tree at Christmas.
