iPad Mini 7 Introduces A17 Pro Chip and Apple Intelligence

Apple's latest iPad Mini upgrade focuses on internal improvements, but may not warrant an upgrade from the Mini 6 for most users.

The iPad Mini 7 retains the same design as the Mini 6 but features the new A17 Pro chip for enhanced performance.
Apple Intelligence support is a key addition, enabling advanced AI features and improved machine learning capabilities.
Despite the internal upgrades, the Mini 7's display and camera systems remain largely unchanged from its predecessor.
The device supports the latest Apple Pencil Pro, offering new functionalities like hover and haptic feedback.
The starting price for the iPad Mini 7 remains at $499, matching the Mini 6, but offers double the base storage capacity.
