Apple iPad mini Review

Apple iPad mini is an incredible device, equipped with a good size 7.9-inches touch-screen, a Dual-Core processor clocking at 1 gigahertz, and two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back side camera and a 1.2 MP front-facing camera. But let's get into more details.

Apple equipped the iPad mini with a good performance Dual-Core CPU ticking at 1 gigahertz, included in an Apple A5 system chip and 512 MB RAM. Collaborating with graphic calculations, it also uses a 200 megahertz PowerVR SGX543 MP2 graphics processing unit. A good advantage of this tablet is its big 16 GB internal memory and even though it doesn't include an SD memory slot, it is enough to store a couple hundred apps, although it may not be enough if you are fan of the heaviest games currently available.

Regarding its design, this device is mainly built with Aluminium, which gives a top level look. Being just 0.28" thick,the iPad mini is very slim and comfortable. Though this tablet just has 7.87 inches long and 5.3" wide, it manages to contain a 7.9" display. Apple is offering this device in two color options, black and white. Apple has made a really good design job making this tablet as lightweight as 11.01 oz.

This tablet is equipped with an average 768 x 1024 7.9" display, providing this tablet with an average image quality. This display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

The iPad mini has two cameras, a 5 MP back facing camera and a 1.2 megapixels front side camera. This tablet can also film videos in Full HD 1920x1080 at 30 frames per second. In addition, this portable tablet's camera also has many useful characteristics like auto-focus, face detection shooting, digital image stabilization, HDR mode, time lapse video and geo tagging.

This tablet includes Wi-Fi capability (and it can provide it to other devices acting as a wireless router), LTE (4G) great performance data connection and also HSPA+ connectivity, a slower 4G technology and 3G fast connection type, using HSDPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This tablet uses a Nano SIM card for GSM connection and it works with both CDMA and GSM.

The Apple iPad mini comes with a 4440 mAh long lasting Li-Polymer non-replaceable battery, enough to provide the Apple iPad mini with an amazing battery life. An issue to take into consideration is that this tablet's battery isn't removable so you won't be able to replace it when it starts to last shorter, even though having 4440 mAh you will probably discard this tablet before it happens.

This device also includes a handful of nice features as Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

Apple is offering the iPad mini for 235 dollars, which is not a good offer for a device this level. No matter if you want it majorly for social networks, you love taking photos, want a portable tablet for work or are looking for a gaming tablet, this device is probably the correct option for you. When buying this tablet you will also receive USB Power Adapter and Lightning to USB Cable.
