Will iPad mini 2 Being Released In this Autumn?

The CEO of Apple, Tim Cook mentioned previously that a line of new products would launch in the autumn and during 2014. Apple users are looking forward to the new iPad mini and iPad, however, according to the iPad mini rumors and news, Apple may delay the release date of iPad mini 2 because of the further design of iPad mini’s specifications.

We may not be unfamiliar with Retina Display. This technology was first being applied on iPhone 4 and won much highly praise. Then Apple started to use Retina Display on all the Apple products. From iPhone to iPad, the Retina Display technology let people have wonderful visual experience. Although Apple is not the first company to apply the Retina Display to its products, it is the one that let the Retina Display become famous among around the world.

Let’s take a review at the screen of the first generation of iPad mini. The screen is 7.9 inches with a resolution of 1024×768, the comparatively small screen with low resolution brings a bad effect of playing the high quality images, so that’s what Apple want to change. But until now, it’s still under debating whether to make iPad mini with Retina Display, why? Maybe the cost is one of the reasons. The iPad mini first-gen was $329 when released, and compared with $499 iPad 4, it was really competitive. Also, compared with the 9.7-inch iPad 4, iPad mini has the same aspect ratio, but it is more cute and easier to handle. So iPad mini is popular among young people. But for the sake of reducing costs, the first-generation iPad mini’s screen uses IPS LCD which brings low resolution to iPad mini. For iPad mini 2, designers have been trying to make changes. The bezel of iPad mini 2 has been reduced to make it look like a HTC or Samsung big-size smartphones. And the Retina Display should have been another change, but Apple is still under debating on it. After all, the cost of iPad mini with Retina Display will be higher than first-gen iPad mini. However, the former CEO, Steve Jobs once said, “The user experience is what we care about most”, and that may also be the core spirit of Apple. Since the screen feedback of first-generation iPad mini is not that good, the fruit company may take some measures to deal with it.

For Apple users, the Retina Display Screen is definitely a necessity. On one hand, the users want to have first-class visual experience on their Apple devices; on the other hand, users like me always want to prove that every penny we have spent on our Apple devices is worthy. If the latest device cannot meet our needs or the latest devices just keep the same as the old ones, we may not spend money buying them. Apple may take the customers’ attitudes into consideration as well. For lots of Apple users, they have already adapted themselves to the Retina Display screen on the Apple devices, and the normal LCD screen will never make the users be satisfied. As Retina Display has already been widely used among the Apple devices, why doesn’t Apple use it on iPad mini 2? If iPad mini with Retina Display is about to com out, it will be worth waiting. The Apple users may also looking forward to the iPhone 6 or iPhone 5S, but no evidence has shown up that this new version of iPhone will be released in the autumn or during 2014.

iPad mini 2 may not have any software changes, so users are able to sync their old iPad mini with the new one. Syncing iPad mini with iTunes is easy, but if you get stuck when syncing iPad mini with iTunes, you will need an iTunes utility to help.
