Apple iPad Mini Retina Display Review

Online, December 16, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Apple took the comments and suggestions made last year about the first Apple iPad Mini and made some terrific upgrades. Holding the 2012 model and this year's model side by side, there is not enough of a difference to tell them apart. The 2013 model specs of 7.87 by 5.3 by 0.3 inches make it light and easy to handle one handed. One of the big upgrades is the screen. The 7.9 inch Retina screen has 2,048x1,536 pixel resolution, which translates to 324ppi. Text is incredible clear, colors look natural and the grayscale is a huge improvement. Watching movies, reading books and playing games is easy on the eyes. Along with the screen, the new processor makes the iPad Mini 2 a fantastic tablet to use. The 64-bit A7 processor is the same processor in the iPhone 5S and iPad Air, and Apple increased the RAM to 1GB. The iPad Mini 2 has improved connectivity, with an LTE version available and the Wi-Fi antennas have been upgraded to MIMO technology. The LTE version is unlocked, so the user can swap SIM cards anywhere in the world.
