iPad Mini 4 review: A long wait makes for a potent upgrade

After a yearlong wait, we finally have a properly upgraded iPad Mini. While it adopted the iPad Air 2's super-slim aesthetic and got a similarly great screen, the iPad Mini 4 makes do with Apple's dual-core A8 chipset.
Pros:
  • Vibrant screen
  • iOS 9 is great for multitasking
  • Solid performance
  • Respectable battery life
Cons:
  • Rotation lock switch is gone
  • Still less powerful than the iPad Air 2
  • Base model only has 16GB of storage

This year we got (at last) a good iPad Mini, there are a lot of great and improved features and although it has been claimed to be a shrunken iPad Air 2, it clearly isn't, hardware-wise it's quite different.
Pros:
  • Great display
  • Premium design
  • Good cameras
  • Multitasking
  • Reasonable battery life
Cons:
  • Only 16GB storage for the base model
  • No microSD storage
  • A bit expensive
  • Performance is a bit under iPad Air 2
  • Audio quality could be improved

Apple iPad mini 4

Overall, the iPad mini 4 is a very good device, and a return to form of sorts for the mini line. It still lags behind the iPad Air 2 in a number of ways, but for those who prefer the mini's smaller form factor, it's an appealing tablet.
Pros:
  • The thinner, lighter design is even easier to hold than past iPad minis
  • A more powerful processor boots up the iPad and opens apps faster
  • Rear iSight camera has been upgraded to 8MP, with slo-mo video recording and burst mode shooting
  • Colors are sharper and more accurate in updated display.
Cons:
  • Still often feels like a step down from iPad Air 2
  • No 3D Touch display
  • 16GB capacity will be too small for most users
  • 1.2 MP iPad FaceTime camera feels outdated
  • The design has been tweaked enough that old iPad mini cases won't fit.

Apple hasn't revolutionised the iPad Mini with this fourth model but it's certainly one of the best sub-10-inch tablets you can buy right now. A desirable combination of slick performance and longevity, combined with some serious media chops, make the Mini 4 a solid choice for almost any user.
Pros:
  • Super thin and light
  • Slick performance
  • Great battery life

Among the best compact tablets you can buy-if money is no object-the iPad Mini 4 is now a true, almost-no-compromise small alternative to the iPad Air 2.
Pros:
  • Screen is as good as you'll find on a compact tablet
  • Improved rear camera
  • Closer in performance to full-size iPads than the Mini 3 was
Cons:
  • Pricey for a compact tablet
  • Costly relative to Apple's own previous-gen (and still-available) Air and Mini iPads
  • Rotation-lock switch relegated to software
  • As ever
  • no storage expansion via MicroSD

Don't for a second think this is a discounted version of Apple's famed iPad

Contradictory claims have been made about the iPad Mini 4. This tablet is thinner and lighter than the model that precedes it, and yet it is faster and more powerful. Tweaks to the display make it better at viewing content, and although the battery has gone on a substantial diet, Apple claims it'll...
Pros:
  • Excellent build quality
  • Fast computing hardware
  • Anti-reflective screen
  • Improved cameras
  • Touch ID biometric finger scanner
Cons:
  • Expensive
  • Battery drains quick under heavy use
