iPad mini features an all-screen design half inch bezel on all sides Removing the home button is not the same as making an all-screen design.
All screen UI, not all screen front of the device. Er, apart from the edge buttons.... oh well.

While the wording is hyperbole, going from a A12 to an A15 is quite the performance bump.
Do you have a source for the claim that they use the A15 in the iPad mini? It stood out to me that they left the details of the SoC out of the announcement.

Sometimes the alternative isn't much better, so instead of trying to punish myself and get a pixel, degoogle everything, etc. I voted with my wallet. Do I just keep my iPhone and let them get away with the CSAM on device scanning? I chose not to, even if the privacy is worse on android. Some may think that's ass backwards, but it was a solution for my beliefs.
It does seem ass backwards. Google scans your content for CSAM on their servers. And they scan your content for demographic and advertising data and god knows what else. I do not see your logic here. It appears to be an ill-decided knee-jerk reaction.
> Google scans your content for CSAM on their servers.
How does their content get on google's servers?
And last time I checked, there was no content-scanning feature implemented in Android (and especially not in Graphene, Calyx, Lineage, or what ever.)

#124I have just noticed that they say “iPhone” not “the iPhone”, “the iPad”, “my iPad”. It’s as if they were talking about a person, such as “I’m using Hal”.
Do people say "On the Windows 11 we ..." or do they say "On Windows 11 ..."? It's a name, you don't have to put "the" in front of a name, the laurent92 (of course, the Ohio State University would disagree with that idea).
It's software vs a physical device. Windows 11 on the computer. iOS on the iPhone.

#125Mods, might I suggest striking everything after "Apple unveils new iPad mini"?

#127I love how everything has to be a "revolutionary breakthrough" with apple. Wow the 73rd version of the 19th variation of the ipad gets better performance. What a break though.

Really, really great. Absolutely incredible. Boom. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nx7v815bYUw

Maybe you're just trying to catch them on wording, but if you're actually wanting them to make it completely bezel-less... I don't think you actually do
It's hard enough to grip the previous iPad minis from the side, an entirely bezel-less tablet would have nowhere to hold it without touching the screen

#129Everything looks nice, but I really don't mind these devices if I can't install my own desktop software on them. Seems nice for things like casual content consumption though
No desktop apps. Dead on arrival. I bet they barely even sell twice as many of these things as their laptops and desktops combined.

#130Is there a good reason that Touch ID can only be on the iPad Mini and must be replaced by Face ID on the iPad Pro? Face ID works terribly for students that use their iPad Pro face-up on a desk or table where the camera isn't directly pointed at the user's face.
It would be much easier to just place my finger onto the power button whenever it's time to transition from listening to a lecture to writing notes.
