Apple's New iPad Mini Has A17 Pro Chip, Apple Intelligence

From PC Mag: Apple has unveiled a new iPad mini tablet with Apple Intelligence, the tech giant announced Tuesday.

The new iPad mini has an 8.3-inch screen and comes in four color options. It contains Apple's A17 Pro chip, which has a six-core CPU and five-core GPU that promises to make it faster than the previous iPad mini model. It'll also support hardware-accelerated ray tracing for gaming.

But the A17 isn't Apple's newest chip—the iPhone 16 Pro has an A18 Pro chip, and last year's iPhone 15 Pro has the A17 Pro.

The new iPad mini supports Wi-Fi 6E connections and can connect to 5G networks. Cellular versions use an eSIM instead of a physical SIM card. The tablet also comes with a USB-C port and a 12MP back camera.
