A history of the iPad Mini, from life to limbo
Damn shame if Apple eventually axes. It is one of Apple's best decisions ever in terms of form factor. I use mine as a dedicated e-reader, and it's exactly perfect for that purpose.Apply some or all of the most recent 9.7-inch iPad design decisions, drop the price, market it correctly.

Analyst estimates average lifespan for all Apple devices at over four years
It would seem that iPhones and the unrelenting upgrade cycles account for the 4 years+ determination.
All my iPods (six!) still operate - albeit with varying battery degradation - very nicely. Writing this on a 2009 MacBook running El Cap; with memory increased to 8GB, it's gone above and beyond the call of duty as a kitchen table browsing device. Could be snappier, but its long-term value is undeniable.
