Any way you look at it, iPad mini is just incredible. And the stunning Retina display is only the beginning.
With a new A7 chip, advanced wireless, and powerful apps ? all beautifully integrated with iOS 7 ? iPad
mini with Retina display lets you do more than you ever imagined. Feature for feature,it?s identical to iPad
Air in every way.Except for its super-portable, hold-it-in-one-hand, still-just-right mini size.
Now iPad mini looks even more brilliant in your hand. The Retina display has over 3.1 million pixels ? a million more than an HDTV.
That?s a 2048-by-1536 resolution, four times the resolution of the previous-generation iPad mini. In fact, the pixels are so close together,
your eyes can?t distinguish them. So photos and videos show incredible detail and text is razor sharp. Because the best pixels are the ones you never see.
We packed so many incredible new features inside iPad mini. It has a stunning Retina display,
the incredibly powerful A7 chip, advanced wireless technologies, and more. Yet it?s still thin and light (and mini).
It?s just 0.29 inch thin and weighs less than three-quarters of a pound. So while you can do even more, you won?t feel like you?re holding any more.
iPad mini is designed to be on the go, so it has two antennas to support MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) for up to twice as fast 802.11n Wi-Fi. And the Wi-Fi + Cellular model has more LTE bands to support more networks around the world ? so iPad mini can keep you connected in more places.1 It also features a 5-megapixel iSight camera and a FaceTime HD camera with an improved sensor for better video calls.2 And dual microphones improve audio and filter background noise for video recording, FaceTime calls, and voice recognition when using Siri. All this technology fits within a sleek frame that?s light and easy to hold.
The new Apple-designed A7 chip brings 64-bit desktop-class architecture to iPad.
That means up to 4x the CPU speed and up to 8x the graphics performance for everything you do.
And still up to 10 hours of battery life to study, play, build, and create whatever you want, all you want.
The A7 chip takes iPad to new heights of power and speed. Thanks to the A7 chip, apps run faster. Games are more responsive. And everything you do with iPad mini feels quicker, because it is quicker. Up to four times as quick, in fact. But that?s just the beginning. It also supports OpenGL ES version 3.0, enabling detailed graphics and visual effects once possible only on desktop computers and game consoles. And the A7 chip features 64-bit architecture, opening the door for even more robust and powerful apps. Which means even more possibilities for what you can do with iPad mini. |
iPad mini was designed to be on the move. That?s why the M7 coprocessor makes so much sense. It measures motion from your iPad mini by pulling data from the accelerometer, gyroscope, and compass. So your apps can give you a better experience based on the movement of your iPad mini. It?s a task that would normally fall to the A7 chip. But M7 is more efficient at it, which saves on power. |
iPad mini gives you up to twice the Wi-Fi performance thanks to two antennas and MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) technology. With dual-band (2.4GHz and 5GHz) 802.11n Wi-Fi and MIMO, download speeds can reach up to 300 Mbps ? double the data rate of the previous-generation iPad mini. So now when you want to download a movie, share photos or documents with AirDrop, or just browse the web, your connection is even faster than before. |
iPad mini with Wi-Fi + Cellular lets you connect to the Internet even if you?re away from a Wi-Fi signal. iPad mini supports even more LTE bands to connect to more cellular data networks around the world.2Now you can get online at really fast speeds ? faster than broadband in some cases ? in more places. And plans are flexible, so you don?t have to sign a contract. Some plans even let you share data across multiple devices. |
iPad mini is the perfect everyday companion. Because it comes with apps that help you do the everyday things you love to do,
like check your email, talk to Mom over FaceTime, or consult Siri to settle a bet. And now iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand, Pages,
Numbers, and Keynote are free with iPad mini.3So you can write the next great novel, nail your presentation, and compose
a score for your home movie ? all from your iPad mini. And all these apps are optimized for 64-bit architecture. So they run
smoothly and powerfully and make iPad mini ? and you ? more capable than ever. From the moment you turn it on.
FaceTime HD CameraSometimes it?s nice to put a face to the conversation. And with FaceTime video calls on iPad mini, your conversations never looked better. Make a video call over Wi-Fi or cellular and see (or show) every expression on the beautiful display.4 And now the FaceTime HD camera features a next-generation backside illumination sensor with bigger pixels. Which brightens up all your FaceTime chats, selfies, and group Photo Booth shots, even inlow-light situations. |
5MP iSight CameraWe think about what goes into a great shot, so you don?t have to. The 5-megapixel iSight camera on iPad mini was designed to help you capture all of life?s moments at a moment?s notice. Use the Retina display as an easy viewfinder to frame the perfect shot. And quickly swipe between capturing stills or 1080p HD video. Every time you shoot, the image signal processor in the A7 chip works with the camera to make a ton of adjustments and deliver a great picture or video ? automatically. You don?t have to think about anything other than who you?re going to share the moment with. |
Dual microphones
iPad mini hears where you?re coming from. That?s because it has two microphones.
And they don?t just collect more sound ? they work together to capture better sound
by suppressing audio from the source you?re not focused on. So the audio on FaceTime
calls is improved because there?s less background noise. Your video recordings sound clearer.
Because iOS 7 was designed for iPad mini, everything not only looks beautiful, it runs beautifully.
And iOS 7 introduces great new features, such as smarter multitasking, AirDrop, and Control Center,
that make the things you do every day even easier, faster, and more enjoyable. It?s everything you love about iOS.
Made even easier to love.
