If none of this has made you sit up and take notice already, this most certainly will—the latest generation iPad Mini is a tad less expensive than the 5th generation iPad Mini, which was launched in 2019. The iPad Mini 2021, with the flat sides and the slab-like design looks, feels the same as the two iPad Pro siblings, as well as the iPad Air. Also, the Apple iPad Mini 2021 works with the latest Apple Pencil, which meant the volume keys had to be repositioned to the other side—but the entire package looks really slick with the Pencil magnetically docked on the iPad. Admittedly truer for the larger iPad options that can double up as laptop replacements, but the iPad Mini isn’t entirely immune to that scenario. The fact of the matter is this—the Apple iPad Mini is a niche within the larger iPad family.
