Audio commentary

When will iPad mini 4 be available? Given the previous release rules, iPad Mini 4 should not keep us waiting long. October or November is a more reliable time. In addition, the price of the iPad Mini 4 will be roughly the same as that of the current iPad Mini 3, about $399 (about 2475 yuan). Let's predict what new features the new iPadmini 4 will have.

1. More changes

Our biggest complaint about iPad Mini 3 is that it is basically an iPad Mini 2 with touch ID fingerprint recognition, with few other changes and a high price.

So while iPad Mini 3 is a very powerful tablet, it's still worth a lot of money, so we hope to see more changes on iPad Mini 4. Therefore, we would like to see more substantial changes on iPad Mini 4, not just adjustments based on iPad Mini 3.

two。 Faster processor

IPad Mini 3 comes with an Apple A7 processor, which, like iPad Mini 2, is a bit out of date compared to iPad Air 2's A8X.

Therefore, although the size of iPad Mini is smaller than that of iPad Air, it does not mean that the configuration is lagging behind. So we want iPad Mini 4 to keep the same processor as iPad Air 3, using A9 or A9X processors.

3. 2GB memory

IPad Mini 3 and iPad Mini 2 have only 1GB of running memory for the ram of devices such as iPhone 6 and only 1GB, but Apple has upgraded to 2gb's ram on iPad Air 2, so we hope to see the same improvement on iPad Mini 4.

4. Price reduction

IPad mini is about to be strangled by the big screen iPhone. How will the new model be updated?

The iPad Mini 3 starts at $399 and is relatively expensive in small tablets. In particular, compared with iPad Mini 2, there is no very significant improvement, which makes iPad Mini 3 look very low in terms of performance-to-price ratio. So, unless users particularly want to buy a small tablet, if the iPad Mini 4 continues to maintain this price, it would be better to spend a little more money on a larger, better-equipped iPad Air 3.

5. Improve the loudspeaker

Although the speaker of iPad Mini 3 is good, there is definitely room for improvement. If the sound effect can be further improved, it will certainly enhance a lot of competitiveness. We hope Apple will put the iPad Mini 4 speakers in the front, which will also help.

6. Better battery performance

The battery life of iPad Mini 3 is about 10 hours of continuous video playback, which is good, but if you play games, the power will drop faster.

So even if you don't use iPad Mini to play games, we hope Apple will continue to improve battery performance. After all, we all want to take iPad Mini 4 out of the house and stick to it for a day when we are unscrupulous.

Yes, although the maximum capacity of iPad Mini 3 has been increased to 128GB, not everyone needs it. On the other hand, 16GB's iPad Mini 4 doesn't seem to make much sense, although Apple still offers such a version.

We hope that Apple can increase the starting capacity of the iPad Mini 4 to 32GB without increasing the price too much, so that there is more room for the average user to play.

8. Screen improvement

IPad mini is about to be killed by the big screen iPhone. How will the new model be updated?

To be honest, the screen of iPad Mini 3 is not bad, its resolution is the same as that of iPad Air 2, and its smaller size makes it look more delicate.

On the other hand, the screen of iPad Mini 3 is no better than that of iPad Mini 2, so we hope that iPad Mini 4 will be further improved rather than stagnant. For example, more accurate colors, richer details, higher contrast and lower reflectivity.

9. Thinner

Although iPad Mini 3 is not thick, 7.5mm does not reach its limit compared with iPad Air 2's 6.1mm, so we hope it will become as thin as iPad Air 2 as another good selling point. The good news is that judging from the exposed iPad Mini 4 shell mentioned above, there is a lot of hope.

10. Add Force Touch function

Force Touch technology is a new function that is first applied to Apple Watch, which can identify different operations on the screen and achieve different functions. Adding such a feature to Apple Watch is a wise choice, and we hope it will appear in more products. After all, if iPad Mini 4 can add Force Touch technology, users will have more room to operate on this not-so-special screen.
