Characteristics of iPad mini in comparison with earlier and later versions

November 2 can be officially considered the birthday of a new tablet from Apple. The gadget was officially introduced on this date. The technical characteristics of the iPad mini will not surprise you with its novelty. But the corporation did not set itself such tasks. The goal was to release a mini version of a full-size tablet - in order to compete with rival manufacturers. And Apple perfectly coped with this task.

The first thing I want to pay attention to is, of course, the display of the laptop. Its diagonal is now 7.9 inches. This in no way affected the resolution, which remained similar to the resolution of the iPad 2 - 1024x768 dots per inch. It is most popular among developers of Internet sites. This characteristic iPad mini allows you to say that the laptop is responsible for working on the network. This It is understandable, since tablet computers originally carried the idea of full Internet access. But it's worth to make a reservation. The tablet is released in three versions, one of which supports only Wi-Fi. And only the two remaining work with the cellular network.

But back to the description of the mini version. The tablet has a light weight (only 310 grams). The dimensions of the body are 200 mm long, almost 13 mm wide, about 8 mm thick. This makes it possible to freely grasp the tablet and fix it in the palm of your hand. The fingers will not close the screen. Weight characteristics iPad mini allows you to say with confidence that this is a gadget is needed on the road. As there is no doubt that it will be more popular among its full-format competitors. The mini-tablet is easy to place even in a small bag or, on the contrary, in a large pocket.

But Apple iPad mini, the characteristics of which we are considering, is good not only in size and weight. It is also gratifying that all applications and programs developed for the full version are supported in a compact version without any problems.
What will the technical characteristics of the iPad mini tell us about internal content - the so-called "hardware"? The gadget runs on a dual-core processor. It is also used in "apple" smartphones IPhone 4 S and full-size tablet iPad 2.

If we talk about memory, then the corporation did not become original when releasing the mini version and limited itself to the usual standard. That is, the light appeared iPad mini 16, 32, 64 GB series. And only one unexpected surprise was presented by Apple - this is the lack of a gadget in the line with a memory capacity of 8 GB.

Manufacturers equipped the tablet with two cameras. The first of these is a front one with a low characteristic of 1.2 megapixels. But the second is quite decent - in 5 megapixels - and it has the functions of determining faces, autofocus, five-element optics, video stabilization and others.

A year has passed since the official presentation of the mini version of the "apple" tablet. And Apple is introducing a new model - the iPad mini 2, whose specifications are improved. Such a long-awaited and familiar in the products of the corporation matrix Ritona has changed the IPS censured. The rest is expected to have a higher screen resolution, improved camera performance, a more powerful processor and some other less important moments.
