You're seeing it wrong. Make a video at 120 frames/sec of your iPad being scrolled. Then play it back at 30 frames/sec. You might see something then.

iPhone 13 is OLED. iPad mini is LCD. It's bound to look inferior. I don't find it that bad though, as its pixel density is higher than any other iPad.
Makes the device unusable in my opinion. They should also be sued for spotlighting display defects they refuse to address out of warranty.
Remember that anyone can file a class action suit for any reason. Does the judge accept it and let it move forward? That's a whole different deal.
Law firms that file these are all about PR and go out of their way to publicize them (like in this case) because it can help get more support behind them. Again, it means little until a judge approves of the case moving forward.
We live in the US, where anyone can file lawsuit against anyone else for anything they like. Don't like my comments here? You can literally sue me for them. A judge will likely refuse to hear the case but you can do so if you like.

Frivolous lawsuit, but contrary to what Apple claims, jelly scrolling is by no means ‘normal’ or acceptable for a $500 tablet.
Just keep returning it until you get one without the defect or buy something else?

It doesn’t since there aren’t any damages; just return it for a full refund. This isn’t like some other defects that only crop up after a long period of time and lots of usage (ex the “spotlight effect” on the MBPs) where the device is no longer in warranty and the only fix costs hundreds of dollars.
Lol what? The new mini uses the same A15 chip with the same number of cores (i.e. not binned) as the iPhone 13, and the resolution is significantly less. What you’re seeing is obviously the lack of ProMotion on a larger screen—which I noticed immediately in the store and found nearly unusable—not “frame drops.” Or there’s something wrong with your model.
What's your last name, DOB, and last 4 of your SSN? Asking for a friend.
Sweet baby jesus wept. Really? Just don't buy it if it doesn't fulfill your preferences.
I always defend the US here in Sweden, I love the country and most people ranting over Americans have never been there. But sometimes you just make it too damn hard to love you guys. ?

No matter how I cupped or handled my iPhone 4 I couldn't ever get the signal strength to decrease. And never had any issues with connection quality.
Remember Bendgate? Less than 12 people had actually reported bending to Apple. These things always appear larger than they are. Scientific studies have shown that spots online, such as this forum, make these issues appear larger than they actually are. You can have a thread pages long, but we humans are horrid at recognizing that it's the same couple people replying again and again. And we're also bad at remembering that even if you have a couple thousand people with an issue, that's still a very small amount when there are millions of people with the device that don't have a problem.
That's not to say that there aren't issues that need to be resolved. But even if 50,000 people had an issue (which is rarely the case) with an iPhone, that's still only 0.5% of the 10 million that own that model at the time.
Oh boy, that’s a lot of crazy in one comment. Whether Apple agrees to it or not is irrelevant…the firm is still going to get the standard 1/3 rate.
Is it a defect? I have the latest iPad Pro and I notice the blooming in the Kindle app when I’m using white text on a black background. I didn’t return it because my understanding is it’s not a defect and all the new iPad Pros are like that.
It's really bad and people who CLAIM not to be able to see it are flat out lying. It's extremely noticeable and extremely easy to reproduce.
They are really just to line the pockets of the law firms.
As the customer, you just get an iTunes coupon.
This is silly. Jelly scrolling happens on these types of displays so it is not a defect.
The thing is, how many times has Apple been informed of actual proper defects that affect the function and usability of it's products and they've done nothing about it until someone takes out a class action suit against them?
