Anyone else just underwhelmed with the "retina" display on the iPad minis? I don't know why but compared to the iPad Air's, the iPad Mini's display just seems a bit fuzzy/Not sharp?
I can't keep up with these product releases... they all become a blur.

And as soon as they do, you'll come out saying that 4GB is what they should've put in.
What can't you do with the current iPad right now due to RAM restrictions? Give three examples.
More RAM is akin to a bigger gas tank.... would you rather a car engine that was super-efficient, or one with a giant gas tank? Apple strives for super efficient.
(yah, I know RAM-to-gas tank comparison is not the best... but you get the point... bigger specs does not always mean better... because software just gets more bloated and requires higher specs, and on it goes... never being happy)
It should have 4GB actually, but 2 is currently the standard starting to be used in other lines, it makes sense to use them in all the lines. Why raise the bar in and not meet the new standard with the remaining products?
eDrawings, to answer your question. To use it smoothly I need to close all of my other apps, and need to completely close it to use any other apps to avoid memory crashes. I am currently struggling with this on 2GB of ram in my air 2. More is always better, but less than the standard is just unacceptable.
I wish they would come up with a more consistent naming convention for the iPads....
iPad Mini 4 alongisde the iPad Air 3 at the launch of iPhone 6S and a revamped iMac 5k?

Huh?
I have a mini retina and an Air next to each other on my desk right now and the mini's display is as sharp - if not a tad sharper - because it has the same number of pixels in a smaller screen.
I'm looking at the exact same document in Pages; the mini has sharper text when viewed VERY closely. At normal reading distance you can't tell any difference.

Boy is this early for new iPad hardware - looks nice. Normally for iPhones or iPad's you start seeing actual hardware, like this, a month or 2 months before release.
Changing the release dates would go against the recent schedules, but getting this hardware for a release in late October would be very weird as well.
Except that's not how memory management works in iOS at all....
Well I dont know what to say, I see the issue, the fix is closing apps, the error I get says its low on memory. So whether that is how it works or not, that is the issue I have.
We have already reached Peak iPad. I no longer care about these hardware iterations. Wake me up when it does something that my old iPad 2 can't.
Wait for The New Apple Watch Edition 2S.
On topic: Give me an iPad Air 3 with iPhone 6 design elements!

Placebo's are a powerful thing.
Here's a good breakdown:

If the system needs memory, it takes it. Closing apps, other than in the case of streaming music or using locations services, does nothing.
I understand it takes the memory, but what causes it to crash? I assume the tasks exceed the memory capacity of the device. Or do I just have a faulty iPad?
If Apple does not put in 2GB of RAM, then they shouldnt even bother with it.
