The price in India of the 16GB Wi-Fi-only iPad Mini has dropped by, with the 7.9-inch tablet hitting pre-order status online in the country. Buyers will be able to select from either a version dipped in white or black-tinted one, and they are expected to commence shipping by the end of the forthcoming month, that is by November 23.
As for its specifications, the tablet wears a 7.9-inch LED backlit multi-touch display with a resolution of 1024 x 768p and a pixel density of 163ppi. To prevent fingerprint marks while holding the slab or jotting down content, the touch panel is protected by an oleophobic coating just like the iPhone 5 and the 4th generation iPad. It even offers a ride on the latest iOS 6 platform with an A5 dual core processor situated at its heart.
The company has included a 16.3-watt-hour rechargeable Li-poly battery that’s capable of delivering up to 10 hours of web browsing over Wi-Fi, video playback or listening to music. Other features to watch out for include the Lightning connector, a 1.2MP 720p FaceTime camera and a 5MP AF BSI iSight snapper. The company had launched this particular tablet on October 23 along with the 4th generation iPad and it has gone up for pre-order in a number of countries including the US and the UK.
Going by its price details, the 16GB Wi-Fi-only iPad Mini will be up for grabs at a cost of Rs. 28,990 through eBay.
