Apple iPad mini review

[karl]

Apple iPad mini
From £269 (WiFi-only); From £369 (4G)
Released November 2 (WiFi-only); Mid-November (4G)
Apple has been dismissive of 7-inch tablet computers and has therefore been keen to emphasise that the iPad mini isn't one. The extra 0.9-inches of screen on the iPad mini are the crucial difference, Apple says, and having tried it for a week and compared it to some rivals, I'd have to agree.
The screen is the most important thing in an iPad, obviously, but before we get to that, a little about the device itself. The iPad mini is yet another wonderful piece of Apple design. Google's Nexus 7 tablet is a perfectly fine piece of hardware - there is one sitting on the desk in front of me as I type - but it's plastic. And, somehow, it's still heavier than the aluminium iPad mini.

Isn't an iPad basically just a big-ass iPod Touch?
So then how is the mini that much different? Getting real tired of your shit, apple.

Have an iPad and like it. Don't want a mini tho until the screen is the size of the entire device.

The ultimate goal of apple: See how many times we can resell the same product with different dimensions to dumb ass americans.
