Apple unveils new iPad mini with updated design, 5G
No it doesn't. I don't carry my iPad Mini everywhere. I do carry my iPhone everywhere. And when I do carry around my iPad Mini, it's because I want to use an iPad, not a large iPhone.elijahg said:
Zero (0) sense for you perhaps. Your scenario means you'd still have to carry around an iPad mini, and an iPhone. Which makes less sense to me than just having one device. But that's fine - you prefer two devices. It's called preference. As above, I was wondering why people prefer to have two, and you haven't really said why it "makes 0 (zero) sense".Eric_WVGG said:
Right, but then I'd have to carry around a huge iPhone, and that huge iPhone would be too small to be a good iPad. What you're suggesting makes 0 (zero) sense.elijahg said:At $499 vs $329 for the bigger iPad, I don't really see what the point of this is, aside from some barely noticeable CPU speed bumps vs the bigger one. Since you probably own an iPhone anyway, you could just get an iPhone 12/13 Plus for $200 more when you next upgrade, saving ~$200 (or $350 if you need cellular), have just one device rather than two, and you're not that far off iPad mini display size. The only major disadvantage is no pencil on iPhone.

Apple releases dozens of new Apple Watch bands alongside Apple Watch Series 7 announcement...
looks like a classic case of PEBCAK
The sport loops all use velcro. The leather ones clearly show which have stainless steel clasps (that would be your "notch") and the rest (magnets).

Apple's new iPhone MagSafe wallet adds Find My support
seems like a feature specifically designed for sloppy drunks
Guess I'll have to upgrade!

This can't be right, there must be a mistake. @MacQuadra840av said it would never happen.MacQuadra840av said:
You will never see it. The iPad mini is a low cost iPad, just like the $329 iPad. It will never look like the Air or Pro.
The one nice benefit of the mini and $329 iPad is the square cornered display, not the ridiculous rounded corners of the Pro and the Air.
