The theme has emerged for iPad Mini rumors: more than one fashion. One model of the Mini, as prognosticated, is a thinner, lighter, quicker version — sans a Retina display. NPD DisplaySearch first anticipated this Mini replacement in June, as did Citi’s analysis. Digitimes chimed in Monday with an identical rumor.
Although a thinner/lighter design is just not unexpected, it is still spectacular, considering that the Mini is already a mere 0.28 inches (7.2mm) thick and a simple 308 grams.DisplaySearch claims it’s going to have the identical 1,024×768 display resolution but a faster A6 processor, which to be put next to the A5 in the present Mini.
Essentially the most anticipated alternate to the Mini, in fact, would be the addition of a Retina display. Digitimes echoed prior feedback from DisplaySearch and Citi research on Monday, pronouncing that the Retina version won’t appear unless 2014.
Although it is later than many shoppers would prefer, the supply chain is a fickle beast. It is now not utterly inconceivable that, let’s hear rumors in subsequent months, of a Mini Retina arriving slightly faster.

And be aware that Digitimes spiced up its Mini Retina rumor with the possibility of “a virtually bezel-free look. If proper, this could indicate that Apple has big plans for the redecorate. Even though it lands at outlets somewhat later than expected, it’ll probably be worth the wait.
