The iPad mini 6 takes on Apple's new design language with flat sides, Touch ID in the Top Button, and a USB-C port. It is now compatible with the Apple Pencil 2, which can be magnetically attached to the side for charging and storage. This is Apple's smallest yet most powerful consumer-grade tablet in its lineup.
The 9th generation Apple iPad, also known as the iPad 10.2 (2021) is probably the Cupertino tablet that needs the least introduction. It has remained a staple of the company's lineup, technically dating back all the way to 2010. Way before any mini, Air or Pro hit the scene, as clearly evident by the formidable 9th iteration mark.
