pretty neat but at the same time, I no longer really care intensely.
I will probably get it as an upgrade from mini7, but I love the mini and I'm glad I didn't just wait it out.
Price increase is always a real possibility too, since it's Apple + tariffs and such.

PLEASE, PLEASE, be 120hz. I have a Mini 7 and an 11” M1 Pro, the Mini feels like a pig next it.
It’s the only 60hz screen out of all my devices and it drives me crazy although I love the form factor.

well, Apple has been putting off OLED for the iPad Mini (and other LCD devices in the lineup for one of two reasons…"Keep the price the same"? Have you turned on the news lately?
- cost
- technical hurdles
Either Apple is just now figuring out how OLED screens work, or the displays have come down in price to the point where it meets their expected margins.
Took way too long honestly when other companies been using OLED for years
I’m looking forward to a 120Hz (hopefully) OLED on the iPad mini 8 being released a year from now. Unless a thinner 11” Air OLED gets my attention?
Tim wouldn’t have it any other way.
I’ll believe it when I see it.
But great news if true. I don’t care about promotion but I hope this OLED is brighter. Doesn’t need to be 1000nits. Just brighter than it is now and at least viewable on a cloudy day outside.

This plagues the iPad mini so badly. I congratulate all the people who can’t see it. I can’t unsee it. And I don’t mind 60Hz displays as much as most tech snobs. But the jelly scrolling is just horrific to my eyes.
I'm fortunately blind to it… the thing I don't get is, why did this issue suddenly come up when they went with the new no-home-button design? The chief differences in the screen are round corners and slightly fewer pixels on the x-axis (for some inexplicable reason). I never heard of this problem on the old screen.
Great to hear. Looks like all the iPad models are shifting to OLED. Will not be surprised if there is a price hike due to this.
I hold my mini in one hand, carry it in my back pocket, and use it like a phone connected to the bluetooth in my car for making and receiving calls. When away from the car I use AirPods. It's linked with my phone via NumberSync. I know I dont represent everyone but for me personally I use my mini the same basic way I use my phone.
