    Even Chinese tablets half the price have better bezels, you're paying the apple tax for a chunky 60hz display

        60 Hertz and last years chip once again. Wow. The non-Pro iPhones are already lazy, but this is taking it up a notch. Also, those bezels are absolutely absurd. This is supposed to be the MINI, but Apple decided on the worst solution, big bezels that make the device much bigger than needed, which could have been used for more display instead if they wanted this size. Really wondering if this has a target audience.

                      The Europe price with extra 99€ is to punish EU for forcing them use USB-C / open iOS to other apps / stop charging 30% in stores for other companies services?

                        Shame it doesn’t have a18 pro in it but it should have 8gb of RAM to accommodate AI tasks. The iphones using same chipset also had 8gb RAM

                                  150 for cellular? It's an extra chip and an antenna. I as a consumer can buy both of this for like 25, can't imagine how cheap Apple gets them

                                    About 600 EUR....... haha this is a joke

                                      The biggest downside and only reason I won't be getting is the display. It's not an oled and it's not bright enough.
