that's fine? it's a very mature segment - medium-price small screen tablet. it hasn't even really been updated since 2021, and that was basically new case+usb-c.
- volemo 2y agoI thought the case and USB-C were in iPad mini already?
- rgreekguy 2y agoMature segment? Is there any other tablet with a square aspect ratio that is smaller than 10"? Two years ago I was on the market, I only remember Microsoft's Surfaces, which are all 10", no other square tablets.
- hollandheese 2y agoWell.. technically you could say the Google Pixel Fold.
- Gigachad 2y agoThe iPads are basically appliances. They release a new model of fridge every year but I've never once considered "Upgrading" my existing one. My 2014 ipad air 2 is only just starting to feel old.
- chemmail 2y agoThe base models maybe, but the Pros have crazy OLEDs that almost have me drooling. The speed hasn't changed much, i just got a 11 Pro with M1 and it isn't any faster in normal stuff than the A12 on my 12.9". I always get my Apple devices from used shops and got my 11 Pro for $250 when it was 2 gens old and feel I won't get the OLED one till I find one for $300ish.
