The iPad mini 7 is back on sale for $100 off

The iPad mini 7 is once again on sale for $100 off via Amazon. This applies to every design variation, so the 128GB standard model is now $400 and the 512GB Wi-Fi/cellular version is $850. However, not all of the colors have been blessed by the discount fairy. Most colorways get a discount of some kind, but it may not apply to all of the hardware variations.

Apple’s latest and greatest diminutive tablet easily found a place on our list of the best iPads. It’s a solid refresh without any real tradeoffs when compared to the full-sized tablet. It supports the Apple Pencil Pro, the A17 Pro chip is plenty powerful and the overall design is comfortable to hold. It’s an iPad mini.

We called it a “solid and necessary update to the best small tablet on the market” in our official review. We came away impressed by the stereo speakers, which sound much better than one would expect. The display is nice, despite maxing out at a 60Hz refresh rate, and the camera array takes surprisingly decent shots, even in low light. It’s great for everyday computing tasks and, of course, for playing mobile games like Balatro.

This model doesn’t include an M-series chip, though the A17 Pro is plenty powerful. Also, the battery life isn’t going to be winning any awards. We struggled to squeeze ten hours of it. This model also lacks Face ID, which could be an issue for some users. Beyond these minor nitpicks, however, this is a near-perfect teensy tablet.
