An interesting video shows the size of the second generation iPad mini comparing its back cover with that of the first generation and, in turn, with the fifth generation of Apple's full-size tablet. The exposed parts have been obtained in a somewhat "clandestine" way and they let us see before any official presentation what we will find from the aesthetic point of view.
The authors of this video are the same as the one we offered you yesterday in which the new generation and the existing fourth generation of the iPad were compared. In that recording we saw how the width of the tablet was significantly reduced and how the aesthetic assimilation of this model of the main lines that were marked when the first 7,9-inch was launched was materialized.
In today's video, we see that there will not be a very big change between the two generations of the small Cupertino tablet. The dimensions are almost identical, also in thickness. The location of the buttons and speakers is also unchanged. The only aesthetic difference is the mirror finish apple logo in the new.
In the comparison of the cases of the iPad mini 2 and the fifth generation of the 9,7-inch we see that their sizes are close. The reduction of the bezel in the latter makes it noticeable that they are only separated by the 1,8 inches of difference in size on their screens.
If the second generation of the small Apple does not change aesthetically, it is understood that it must change in its technical specifications to give your customers a reason to renew their equipment. For many months there was a pretty crazy debate about whether it would have a Retina display or not. The latest information that we received said that he would have it. Such information was based on sources in the production chain. The truth is that only Google has launched a small model that has significantly increased the resolution. The other manufacturers have stayed in resolutions of 1024 x 600 or 1280 x 800 pixels.
We also knew that it will improve on your processor and will mount an A6 chip.
