The iPad mini turned 11 years old this month. It debuted on November 11, 2012, and while the latest sixth-generation version is undoubtedly the best iPad mini yet, you won’t find Apple crowing about it.
That’s largely down to the fact that this model is over two years old now, but there’s still an element of confusion about just what Apple wants the iPad mini to be. Granted, it’s powerful, but not as powerful as its bigger brothers — and it’s portable, but not as portable as an iPhone. It’s also missing some of the features of recent iPadOS updates.
