Comparison review
The Apple iPad Pro has a global score of 79.5, which is slightly better than the Apple iPad mini 4's general score of 75.6. Even though the Apple iPad Pro is better than Apple iPad mini 4, we must tell that it's also a noticeably heavier and somewhat thicker device. Both tablets we compare here come with the same iOS 9.x OS (Operating System), so you shouldn't notice any differences regarding that.
The iPad mini 4 has a bit sharper display than iPad Pro, because although it has a lot smaller display and a much lower resolution of 2048 x 1536 pixels, it also counts with a bit more pixels per inch of display. IPad Pro features a bit faster processing unit than iPad mini 4, and although they both have a Single-Core processor, the iPad Pro also has a greater amount of RAM.
IPad Pro's storage capacity to store more games and applications is just as good as the iPad mini 4 one, both have the same 128 GB internal memory capacity. The iPad Pro counts with a very superior battery life than iPad mini 4, because it has a 10307mAh battery capacity against 5124mAh. Apple iPad mini 4 captures just a bit better pictures and videos than Apple iPad Pro. Both have the same 1920x1080 (Full HD) video definition, the same diafragm aperture, the same resolution camera and the same 30 fps video frame rate.
Although Apple iPad Pro is a better device, it is way more expensive than the iPad mini 4, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as iPad mini 4. So if you want that extra features and specs, you can buy the Apple iPad Pro, else you can save a couple dollars and buy the iPad mini 4, letting go a couple features and specifications.
