Compact 8.3-inch iPad Mini 7 delivers exceptional portability, easily fitting into a purse without weighing it down. The device proved convenient for entertainment during long waits and travel, making it ideal for playing games and consuming media.

The iPad 10th Generation provides more screen real estate for photo and video editing and better keyboard options for document work but lacks Apple Intelligence that the Mini 7 supports. The Mini 7 uses the A17 Pro chip and is compatible with Apple Intelligence features.
