Technical specifications of the new iPad mini (7th generation) are becoming clear
It is stated that the new generation iPad mini model will have an improved screen to help solve the jelly scrolling issue that appeared in its predecessor. According to leaked information, Apple will make changes in the screen assembly process to address the jelly scrolling issue caused by design flaws.
The jelly scrolling issue is described as a significant delay in refreshing half of a device’s screen compared to the other half. The issue, which led users to sue Apple, also made waves on social media.
The new iPad mini will be introduced with the Liquid Retina IPS LCD screen, which was also present in its predecessor. The new model is said to have a 60Hz screen refresh rate, which is commonly used in entry-level devices today.
Apple is facing delays in iPad Pro OLED screen production. Accordingly, the firm is in a dilemma regarding the iPad Pro launch date.
The next-generation iPad mini will have faster performance. The current iPad mini is powered by the A15 Bionic processor. According to a reliable leak on Weibo, the new model will feature the A16 Bionic processor.
Tests have shown that the A16 Bionic is about 10% faster than the A15 Bionic in most tasks. Other components of the iPad mini 7, including Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 support, will also be upgraded.
According to the “Instant Digital” news on Weibo, the new iPad mini 7 will be available in new colors. Additionally, it is stated that the new iPad mini 7 will have a more advanced camera.
