iPad Mini 5's features and specs are doing the rounds in the Internet. Apple fans are eager to know what the iPad Mini 4 successor will look like. Analysts are not sure if the giant developer will scrap the old design and make a differentiating new design.
Rumors suggest that iPad Mini 5 will be thinner than iPad Mini 4's 6.1 mm. At 5mm, the iPad Mini 5 will also be thinner than the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2's 5.6 mm.
A thinner design would also mean a thinner battery for iPad Mini 5. Does that mean that iPad Mini 4's successor will have a lower battery capacity? Apple fans are hoping that its performance will not be affected by its size.
If indeed the iPad Mini 5 will be the thinnest tab soon, it's 7000-series aluminum chassis will serve as a protection to help it from bending. Apple's iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus are also made of this kind of metal which makes it more durable.
Apple's iPad series has not yet been added with 3D Touch, a pressure-sensitive feature which is in iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus. However, rumors had it that the giant tech could possibly release the 3D Touch to iPad Mini 5 and even to iPad Air 3.
The successor of iPad Mini 4 is also rumored to be waterproof and dust-resitant according to Cult of Mac. However, nothing is quite impressive in the camera quality of the iPad Mini 5 as analysts are just expecting the same 1.2Mp lens in front and 8Mp on the rear.
Users are hoping that Apple could improve that processor of iPad Mini 5 from A8 to A9 to be able to see an improved graphic resolution, and even a better display quality during Face Time. Just like the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, the iPad Mini 4 successor will most likely be available in 32GB, 63GB and 128GB.
iPad Mini 5 is rumored to be launched on March 2017. Stay tuned to GameNGuide for the latest news and update of iPad Mini 5.
