There will be two color choices available – black and white.

    As for the display, Apple has decided to put in a 7.9-inch display, which has a resolution of 1,024 x 768, which if you recall, is the exact same resolution as the iPad 2. Which means that thousands and thousands of apps made for the iPad 2 and older iPad won’t have any problems running on it.

    The iPad Mini uses Apple’s dual-core A5 processor, have a FaceTime HD camera on the front and a 5-megapixel iSight camera on the back with full HD recording capabilities. On the radio front, the iPad Mini will boast LTE capability right off the bat, and GSM capabilities as well. The iPad Mini will also have Lighting dock, as well 10-hour battery endurance.

    As far as price is concerned, the iPad Mini will go for $329 for the 16GB WiFi version, which is around Php 13,500 without taxes. The 32GB iPad Mini will go for $429 while the 64GB iPad Mini will go for $519.
