    And here I was desperately waiting for an iPad Mini 5 or Pro Mini. How disappointing.

First, what makes a difference on android is multiple cores. Android utilizes all of them. Second, your stupid geekbench app for a long time shows bias towards apple.

          Looks like Apple is in desperate need of money right now. Are they going to do something again? Just like last year, you know? *cough* Note 7 *cough*

                  Fearghast, 21 Mar 2017Well ... good luck Samsung with your new tablet. I am realy... moreBasically same power *but* wacom and amoled wins the hardware race for Samsung, *yet* iPad wins with having better apps. So the two should priced similarly. Shame on Samsung for pricing outdated hardware so highly, at least apple had the good sense to price it lowly... what a world we live in, where even Apple's pricing policy is better than Samsung's.

                    Only Apple can increase the size of the battery by ~15% and have the same battery life.

                          Well ... good luck Samsung with your new tablet. I am realy not so sure many people would pay extra 270$ for Amoled, speakers and excelent Wacom pen.

                            I always like how the ipad is dramatically cheaper than its iphone counterpart. Why couldnt iphone be price like this? They can make sub $300 ipad but not the iphone. Strange.

                              Wow! Even though some specs may be old, that is a pretty good price, especially surprising, since it is from Apple! Atleast their poor iPad naming conventions remain intact! LOL! :P
