Apple iPad mini 2 Review

Apple iPad mini 2 is a brilliantly made portable tablet released many years ago, packing a comfortable 7.9-inches touch-screen, a very fast 64-bits Dual-Core processor running at 1300 MHz, and 2 cameras, a 5 megapixels back facing camera and a 1.2 mega-pixels front-facing camera.

Apple decided to design this device using a high speed 64 bits Dual-Core processor clocking at 1.3 gigahertz, packed into the Apple A7 chip and only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a little poor for a tablet this powerful. Graphic calculations usually consume a lot of processing power, so this tablet also has a PowerVR G6430 GPU running at 600 MHz to improve overall performance. This device has a 128 GB big internal storage and though it doesn't count with an external memory slot, it is still enough to install lots of apps, games, songs, pictures and videos without having to worry about running out of space at all.

Apple didn't seem to put much effort to reduce weight in this 11.68 ounces tablet. The iPad mini 2 is only 7.87 inches long and 5.3" wide, but it is able to fit a a 7.9 inches display. This device is extremely slim and practical, being just 0.3 inches thick. This tablet is sold in 3 color options, black, gray and white. About its materials, the iPad mini 2 is built with Aluminium, which gives a top level finish and an extra resistance.

This tablet has two cameras, a 5 megapixels back side camera and a 1.2 megapixels front facing camera. It is also able to capture 1920x1080 Full HD videos at 30 frames per second. This tablet also counts with multiple valuable features like digital image stabilization, auto-focus, HDR mode, face detection shooting, time lapse video and geo tagging.

Apple packed the Apple iPad mini 2 with a completely amazing 7.9" screen, and a resolution of 1536 x 2048 , giving this portable tablet a high level image quality. Its screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

The iPad mini 2 features a 6471 mAh huge Li-Polymer non-removable battery that provides the Apple iPad mini 2 an incredible battery life. An issue to consider is that this tablet's battery isn't replaceable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it starts to lose its charge, whereas with so much capacity you will probably replace this device before that becomes a real problem.

The iPad mini 2 counts with Wi-Fi capability (which it can share with other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), LTE (4G) high speed internet connection and the fastest 3G data connection, over HSPA, EV-DO A, EV-DO B and EDGE technologies. This tablet uses a Nano SIM card for GSM connection.

This device also comes with a couple of cool features as Bluetooth (enables communication with other devices, computers, and accessories) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This tablet costs $ 370, which is quite a high price for comparing with similar portable tablets. If you are an amateur photographer, want a tablet for work, will use this tablet mostly for internet broswing and social networks or will use this tablet for playing games, this tablet device is definitely a very good choice for you. When buying the Apple iPad mini 2 you will also receive Lightning to USB Cable and USB Power Adapter.
