In September, Apple’s big event took place. However, the iPhone 13 has leaked too much information before, making fans less curious about this device, so the new iPad mini took the spotlight at a special event earlier this week. The most prominent of iPadOS tablets is 5G. While it has many gratifying things, nothing is perfect, so you can consider the following.
iPhone 13 will be faster than the new iPad
The 5th generation iPhone 12 and iPad Pro smartphones have adopted 5G. However, 5G in the new iPad mini will be different from other iPad generations. iPad mini doesn’t have mm-Wave network support, and the Wi-Fi + Cellular version starts at $649.
Wave coverage is known to make 5G speeds fast, and everyone in the US is concerned about this. However, a more complicated and troublesome issue is that 5G below 6Hz is more common than it is. When you want to find mmWave, you have to look to major cities or stadiums, specific locations labeled 5G UltraWideband.
That means the new iPad mini will be accepted to support 5G networks. This new iPad mini has not only an eSim but also a physical SIM, which supports Sub-6GHz, Bluetooth 5.0, and WiFi 802.11ax. Not only that, but it also allows users to choose a short-term data plan instead of the service provider’s permanent data plan. It can be for a day, a month, or just a certain part of the payment like on vacation when your device doesn’t have wifi and you just need to use it during that time.
You may have to buy the Apple Pencil yourself
If the older generation tablets had to use the original compatible stylus, the second-generation Apple Pencil can be used for this new iPad mini. This is a marked improvement, isn’t it? However, this will make you a bit worried about your budget because the Apple Pencil is sold separately and its price is quite expensive.
The Apple Pencil has increased in price over time, but its price is still said to be very affordable. The price of the first-generation stylus is only $99, the second generation costs $129, and the price of the 6th generation iPad mini is 4-5 times the price of this stylus and it means Apple Pencil costs a quarter of the iPad mini.
If you find the price of Apple Pencils too expensive and you don’t want to buy used pens on eBay, there is another great alternative for you. That’s the Logitech Crayon for iPad for $ 69.95, you can spend less money and use a brand new pen. But price often goes hand in hand with quality, so this stylus may not be as comfortable as an original Apple stylus.
Extra cost for other importance
One thing that has caused a lot of controversy about the new iPad mini is the power supply. Apple doesn’t include the Apple Pencil in the box, but instead a power source. It’s also a hot topic in today’s tech world and everyone should be interested in it.
Tech giants Apple and Samsung both made the decision not to bundle chargers with handsets with some devices. Therefore, users have to buy chargers themselves at a more expensive price. It can be seen that this problem is happening more and more and in the future, all technology firms may follow the same.
Many buyers have realized that even without accessories, the price of the device does not decrease but remains the same, which is unfair. We will have to buy another charger with a higher capacity to charge the battery faster. Apple knew this, so the company fixed the problem by leaving a power adapter in the box for the 6th generation iPad mini.
If you buy it, it will cost about $ 38 for both the power adapter and the charging cap, but when you buy the new iPad mini, you will get a 20W USB-C power supply and get a 1-meter USB-C charging cable without having to spend extra money on buying them.
From September 24, iPad mini will begin shipping to buyers, and customers can order now.
