The latest iPad mini 7 was released in Oct. of 2024, bringing a smaller and more compact design with Apple Intelligence features to the already smallest iPad on the market. Today, the iPad Mini is nearly $100 off. You can get it for $399.99 (originally $499), $0.99 off the lowest price it has ever been, according to price-tracking tools.
The iPad mini 7 comes with the A17 Pro chip, the same chip found in the iPhone 15 Pro, and one A-series less than the iPhone 16 series uses. It’s only a year and a half old and will be supported by Apple for many more years. In comparison to the iPad mini 6, it is 30% faster than the iPad mini 6’s A15 Bionic chip, but more importantly, it runs Apple Intelligence, including new AI features like notification summaries and AI-powered writing tools. You’ll also be able to use the new Apple Pencil Pro with it, have Wi-Fi 6E support, and it starts with 128GB of storage (twice what the iPad mini 6 base model offers).
