tablet PC by Apple

The iPad mini 4 is faster, thinner, taller, and lighter than the iPad mini 3 , boasting a 30% faster CPU and 60% faster graphics, which it replaces. That’s due in part to the 1.5 GHz A8 processor and in part to having 2 MB of system memory.

As with iPhones and other recent iPads, the iPad mini 4 is available in silver, gold, and space gray. No sign yet of rose gold, which remains unique to the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus for now.

Because the iPad mini 4 is taller and thinner than the iPad mini 3, it won’t fit most existing cases. You’ll want to be sure to buy one compatible with the iPad mini 4.
