Alright friends, after 3 years, the 2nd generation of the iPad mini is here, and we're going to do its unboxing and first impressions. But before doing the unboxing, the iPad space has become very interesting. Before opening it and talking about it, you need to understand which is the correct iPad for you. If I talk about the iPads that are available now, then obviously you have the old generation iPad 10, then you have iPad Air, then you have iPad Pro, and in between you have iPad mini. To be honest, if I look at the value for money, then you get the iPad 10 in Rs 30-32K. You get a good 10.9'' screen, servo, etc. So according to the value for money, that's the good one. But if you ask me why I don't buy the 11'' iPad Air? You're getting a bigger screen, and it's on the M2 chipset.

But in single core, the iPad mini still performs better. But in multi-core, the M2's score is better, and if you want a bigger screen, then you should definitely look at it. If you want a portable tablet, then you must look at the iPad mini. I'm extremely happy that Apple has still brought the iPad mini in a powerful tablet format in the mini space. I've told you what I think about the iPad space, now I'll tell you what I think about the iPad mini. But first, let's open the box. If I talk about the form factor and in-hand feel, it's exactly the same. If I compare it with the first iPad mini launched in 2021, then it's exactly the same. There's no difference in the size of the display. But in the box, you get the iPad mini. Then you get stickers. No, it's documentation. You have some, I don't know, nobody reads it.

It's good to see that you get an adapter in the Apple device box. It's a 20W adapter, so that's good. And it's USB Type C, that's nice. And you get a braided cable, USB Type C to Type C. There's nothing else, let's keep this aside. Let's look at the iPad mini. I don't want to tear this, so I'm going to open it without tearing. Nice! There are more pastel muted colours. This is kind of a blue colour, look at that. There's an iPad mini branding at the bottom, nice. In terms of weight, it looks like a tablet, but I'll go wrong. It's 325g, let's see. It's below 294.2g, not bad at all. Generally, tablets are around 500-500g. But this is less than 300g, so it's very lightweight. In terms of ports & buttons, you get USB Type C.

And on the top, you get volume rockers. And on the top, you get a touch ID. And obviously, it's power on off. If I talk about the display, it's an 8.3'' 60Hz 2K resolution with 500 nits brightness. So it's 60Hz, it's not 120Hz & it's an IPS LCD. Obviously, the quality is unmatched even if it's an IPS LCD. And if I talk about the bezels, there are 4 uniform sized bezels. And you can hold it in one hand, look at this. And bezels in a tablet are important because when you're reading, you can hold it like this without touching the screen. And quickly, let me tell you about the specifications. It's an A17 Pro, so yes, that's good. It's 3nm, so it's more power efficient & powerful. It also supports ray tracing for gaming, so that's good.

If it was 120Hz instead of 60Hz, that would've been nice. But I don't think ProMotion will give you this in Rs 50K. You get ProMotion only in Pro devices. So yeah, that's not there. The good thing is that they've doubled the storage & RAM. Because now you get Apple Intelligence in it. So if you want to use Apple Intelligence on a big screen, then you can do it. So that's nice, there's 8GB RAM & 128GB storage. If I talk about the battery, it remains the same. It has a 19.33Wh battery, which is around 5100mAh. And because it's 3nm, it's pretty power efficient. Yes, if you're looking for a tablet, then it should be around Rs 7-9K. But it's not necessary as the IOS app is very optimised. Interestingly, the front-facing selfie camera is on the

shorter side, and I'm okay with it. Because a lot of times, you're going to hold the tablet in one hand like this. So I think it makes sense. Generally, I'd say that the selfie camera should be on the longer side. But yeah, it's on the shorter side, and I'm okay with it. It's a 12MP selfie camera, and there's a 12MP selfie camera on the back as well. And I'm going to talk a little about the performance of the A17 Pro, as that's a big change. It has a 6-core CPU and a 5-core GPU, which supports Ray Tracing. And we've played some games, and it's very powerful. You can definitely play AAA-rated games, and they run very well. So this is a beautiful gaming device, that I'll definitely say. I still use my first iPad mini. In fact, if you want to carry it in a pocket, it'll fit inside your pockets.

And if we add the folio, it becomes beautiful. Look at this, I'll show you. Oh, this is nice. By the way, I forgot to tell you that you get cellular connectivity as well. But you get eSIM & there's Wi-Fi & cellular connectivity. So the price starts from Rs 50K for the base variant & goes all the way up to Rs 95K for the 512GB cellular variant. If I talk about connectivity, there's Wi-Fi 6E & Bluetooth 5.3 support. USB supports 10Gbps data transfer, so that's also good. And an important thing is that they've increased the RAM & storage as well. It supports Apple Intelligence. So you'll get the Apple Intelligence features as they get released. This is a device that you'll be using for 4-5 years. So obviously, the Apple Intelligence AI features will be there & you can enjoy it on this form factor. So this is the iPad Mini.

As I said earlier, you have to decide which is the perfect fit for you. If you want value for money, then you can definitely look at the iPad 10th generation. If you want a portable form factor & a powerful tablet, then you can look at this. If you want a big display, then you can look at the M2 iPad Air for Rs 10K. And if you have money & want to do everything on your iPad, then you can look at the iPad Pro. That's the iPad Universe! If you enjoyed the video, then do hit LIKE!
