I've got an old iPad that I'd be willing to sell. My wife just upgraded. I don't remember which model it is but I'll find out. Let me know if you're interested. Quote

Hector Posted December 25, 2018 Report Posted December 25, 2018 This is good news. I thought the iPad mini was dead. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote
Danb Posted December 26, 2018 Report Posted December 26, 2018 Awesome news my mini needs a speed increase Quote

From the above link.... "Last week’s report reiterated a low-price for the new iPad mini, so it likely won’t include iPad Pro features like a Liquid Retina display and Face ID." Quote

The retina itself has been around awhile (https://www.imore.com/ipad-mini-2). Quote
Hector Posted December 26, 2018 Report Posted December 26, 2018 Does the Apple Pencil only work with the Liquid Retina? Would love to be able to use the Apple Pencil with a new mini. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
carusoam Posted December 26, 2018 Report Posted December 26, 2018 iPad releases seem to follow six months out of phase with the iPhones... i think the pencil works better with the more modern screens... thinner lines, important for writing... We need to buy one pencil and test it on writing clearances on each screen.... Best regards, -a- Quote
ArtVandelay Posted December 26, 2018 Report Posted December 26, 2018 Pencil is $100! I’ll use my finger, thx.Tom Quote
carusoam Posted December 26, 2018 Report Posted December 26, 2018 Tom, you must have a tiny finger or a really modern idevice....? I’m still using a pencil and paper for writing... Best regards, -a- Quote
Bryan Posted December 26, 2018 Report Posted December 26, 2018 The Liquid Retina iPads are not the only ones you can use the pencil on. The later model (full screen) iPads (no Pro) also support the pencil. I use my finger today on the Mini and look forward for the new minis to support the pencil. Even at $100. It beats buying a pro at nearly 1 AMU for a tablet. Quote
glbtrottr Posted January 4, 2019 Report Posted January 4, 2019 I got a mini 4 lte/cellular because of ForeFlight.The WiFi does not have the gps chip the cellular mini has.I never expected how much I would use a mini on and off the plane.Screen size over an iPhone X or Xr is massive for me and I have 20/10 vision...bought mine used on OfferUp for 200.It is the most reliable piece of tech I have...has not turned off once.I dislike apple product immensely...but the mini 4 lte has been rock solid. No speed issues.I’d hate to give apple money for a mini 5 unless it had huge improvements besides speedSent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote
Bryan Posted January 8, 2019 Report Posted January 8, 2019 New photos shared online appear to show an unreleased version of Apple’s iPad mini tablet with design characteristics not seen on hardware that Apple has sold to date. The images appear amid rumors that Apple is planning to release a fifth-generation iPad mini sometime over the next few months. https://9to5mac.com/2019/01/08/possible-ipad-mini-5-leak/ 3 Quote

The article said that Apple was looking to offer a low cost (budget) device, which I find hard to believe---Apple does not do that. Frankly, it's a no-go for me if the pencil isn't there. Quote

carusoam Posted January 10, 2019 Report Posted January 10, 2019 I saw an interview with a Tim Cook yesterday... Their bottom line is customer happiness... happy customers are return customers... Even if they only return a few years later... He is an interesting CEO to listen too. No MBA required... Best regards, -a- 1 Quote

Bryan Posted January 13, 2019 Report Posted January 13, 2019 He is great at operations but seems to lack on the innovation side. They have a growing problem of mediocrity but still at premium prices. At some critical point they are going to have to reinvent the wheel to stay on top. I do admire their view on privacy. 1 Quote
