Apple announced a new generation of the iPad mini, the iPad mini 7, which looks identical to its predecessor but includes an important internal change - it is powered by a binned version of the A17 Pro chip, which has fewer GPU cores than the chip used in the iPhone 15 Pro. This suggests that Apple may have repurposed chips that did not reach maximum performance for use in the new iPad mini. Despite this difference, the device is still compatible with upcoming Apple Intelligence features due to its RAM and will be available for preorder on Apple's website.
