iPad Mini vs. iPad Air Buyer's Guide: Now Just $50 Apart
Reported by MacRumors, Hartley Charlton on

Apple refreshed both the iPad mini and iPad Air this year, but the choice is now less straightforward and there is just a $50 price difference between them, so which should you choose? The eighth-generation ‌iPad Air‌ arrived in March with the M4 chip, 12GB of unified memory, Apple's N1 wireless chip, and the C1X modem on cellular models. It remains available in 11-inch and 13-inch sizes. Following Apple's June price increases , the two size options now start at $749 and $949, respectively.
