Five Hidden Upgrades in the New iPad Mini 7

Apple released its new iPad mini model earlier this week, marking the first update in over three years. While it's a small refresh mainly focusing on A17 Pro with Apple Intelligence and Apple Pencil Pro, there are several smaller changes worth noting, including faster connectivity with Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3; Apple Pencil Hover support for previews and interactions by hovering the stylus over UI elements; up to 10Gbps data transfer speed through USB-C, double that of the previous model; additional storage options ranging up to 512GB; and improved photo quality with Smart HDR 4 capture capabilities.
