Now that the rumors about the arrival of the iPad Mini in September take on more body than ever, the debate over the usefulness of a 7-inch tablet is on. Will the iPad Mini bring any real advantage over the iPad 3? We give you three good reasons to think that one smaller and lighter tablet, close in size to the format of eReaders and portable game consoles, yes it is a good idea.
- Your possibilities as an eReader. A smaller and lighter tablet would undoubtedly go a long way more comfortable when taking it with you on either side, and much less tired of holding during a long reading session. Compared to an eReader, they still have the advantage of electronic ink, but Apple has patents related to hybrids between LED and e-ink that may show promise in this area.
- Its possibilities as a portable game console. Although the iPad Mini would still be slightly larger in size than the PS-Vita or PSP, it would still be the same. small enough enough to even carry it in a pocket of your jeans. The iPhone can sometimes be too small to fit. appreciate the quality of the graphics and so that the touch controls can be squeezed to the maximum, and the iPad, as in the case of reading, may not be the most comfortable option to be a long time hooked on a game. An iPad Mini would offer the perfect mid size to alleviate the disadvantages of these two extremes.
- The success of Nexus 7. We could still have doubts about the interest of the iPad Mini if it were not for the overwhelming success of the Nexus 7, which shows that many users have already considered that a smaller tablet may be a good option. For those who, however, do not succumb to the charms of Android before and still prefer the design and features of iOS, the iPad Mini could be the perfect excuse to take the leap.
