The New Apple iPad mini Air 3 with Retina Display Wi-Fi + Cellular for T-Mobile 16GB - Space Gray

Now that's a short memorable name.

No! Now that's a name for an android machine!

Dear Apple,

Let's just stick with names 2 words long at the longest, Okay?

Dear forum goer,

Please realize that nothing posted to this site before releases comes from Apple. Apple has not yet even announced said device, let alone named it.



Good grief people....it'll be the iPad mini - and some will tack on a "2" to differentiate.

Pretty soon, we're going to do away with the numbering in the names. iPad Mini, Air, Pro. iPhone Mini, Air, Pro. Updated annually, and sold as trios. None of this "last year's" business.

Yes, but there are Apple employees reading this site, as proven by the data of the internal beta users before the developer release. The opinions here might (and that's a very small might) influencing some of Apple's decisions.

I just can't understand what's with all the people that says that the iPad Mini don't need to get any thinner. I for one decided to buy my iPad Mini based on how heavy I felt my iPad 3 was. I use it to read a lot and holding an iPad 3 for more than 5 minutes was uncomfortable. When the iPad Mini Retina (iPad Mini 2) came and I read that it was thicker and heavier I did not buy it and I'm still using the first iPad Mini. Sure, the retina display is cool but I rather have the slimmer device. Now give me an iPad Mini Retina with a faster processor than the iPad Mini Retina and thinner than the original and I will buy it right away.

I long for the day (soon to come) that a tablet will have the same weight as a paper sheet (foldable too)...
