I loved my ipad mini. It's super long in the tooth now, and I was hoping to replace it today. oh well...

  I wish they would stop doing this weird release cycle where some of their tablets don't get the updated chips. It's really frustrating. Makes me hesitant to buy a tablet if I feel like it could get an upgrade a week later or whatever.

    It certainly seems less than ideal for pro/prosumer buyers who care about the chips inside. I would guess that Apple doesn't love it either; one suspects that the weird release cycle is at least partially related to availability of chips and other components.

    I probably would have pulled the trigger on a price drop, but at 600+eur for an old version, I'm just not as into that, as I really expect it to be lasting many years.

  I was ready to buy one today, too. Disappointing. I miss my old iPad mini 4. I guess I could try the 11" iPad, but I think I'd prefer it to be smaller.

    Yeah, We've got a full sized iPad here and it's really strange to hold and use. It's all what you're used to.
