iPad Mini Australian Review: Shetland Tablet
Forget the headlines and exit the hype train at the next station. The iPad mini is here and it's not the shining beacon we all expected it to be, but it damn-well got close.

The war in which everyone seems to be winners is the one we seem to have had with Apple and everyone else in the last couple of decades. It started with Mac vs PC, continued with iPhone vs Android, and now that battle has extended to the tablet market.
Pros:
- Good price
- good size
- all the advantages of a tablet
- great video and audio
- all the apps
- all the features of I devices
Cons:
- Like all Apples
- not massively configurable
- a new proprietary cable to worry about

The Apple Beat: iPad mini slowly but surely rules the roost
Two months down the line and the iPad mini has been elevated as my go-to tablet of choice, which is surprising for someone who relies on the larger iPad for so many things.

Jobs dismissed 7-inch tabs as tweeners. We differ If Steve Jobs was still around we wonder if the iPhone would have ever gone beyond the 3.5-inch screen and the iPad downsized from its original beefy 9.7-inch form factor.

Review: Apple's Retina iPad mini is the small tablet we wanted a year ago
You needed to know two things about the first iPad mini. The first thing is that it was, well, mini -it was a 7.9-inch tablet from a company whose CEO once said that users would have to sandpaper their fingers down to comfortably use anything smaller than a full-size iPad.
Pros:
- Retina display resolves all of our gripes with the old mini's screen
- A7 SoC blows the old mini's A5 out of the water and nearly runs as quickly as the version in the iPad Air
- Great battery life
- and the battery charges more quickly if you use the included 10W adapter
- Nice Wi-Fi upgrade
- although...
Cons:
- iOS 7 is still a little rough around the edges on this and every iPad
- Air gap between glass and LCD keeps screen from being as good as it could be
- Features like Touch ID will have to wait until next year at the earliest
- Scattered reports indicate that some screens may suffer from image retention...
