It seems that the American company Apple plans to launch a new iPad mini at the end of 2023 or in the first half of 2024.
The news comes from the famous analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who explained that the new device will have a new and fast processor.
Foldable iPad mini
Meng also says the new iPad won’t be foldable. Also, the foldable iPad won’t replace the iPad mini at this time.
Many expect the iPhone maker to work on a foldable iPad. However, experts don’t see this and believe that Apple is still far from making a foldable iPhone or iPad any time soon.
And foldable devices have gained some traction, thanks to Korean giant Samsung, which has been improving its foldable phones for several years.
And because the technology for foldable devices is still new and full of flaws and problems. Meng believes that Apple will not enter this field, either next year or next year.
As everyone knows, Apple does not participate in any technology unless it has been tested and all problems have been removed. Because it offers it perfectly to the user, unlike other companies.
As for the new iPad Mini, the company had launched a version in September 2021. With 8.3-inch screen, A15 Bionic chip, USB-C port, Touch ID power button and support for fifth generation networks.
