So, Apple just unveiled the new "iPad Mini" and to be honest, I'm not sure what this device is suppose to be, is it a affordable, "innovative" 7 (7.9) inch tablet? or is it a enlarged iPod touch/smaller iPad made to take money from consumers?
Well I'm pretty sure this isn't innovative because, there are many 7 inch and a few 8 inch tablets that already are floating out there. So basically, this is an over priced device that stumped people who bought the 5th gen iPod touch which costs 299 bucks. So what is this device? This is a device that makes the iPod Touch meaning less, but then Apple is greedy, so they want to keep the iPod Touch 5th gen at 299 dollars. So basically, this device is another on of Apple's "creations" to puppet innocent consumers around.
Specs wise, compared to the Nexus 7 (I love this device) the iPad Mini has a 7.9 inch display, .9 inches larger than the Nexus 7. This also features an Aluminum back with a very nice finish to the sides to blend the glass and aluminum. I admit, this does look very attractive however, here is the catch. The Nexus 7 features top of the line specs, however the iPad Mini has the same processor from a device a generation ago. This is the same with the iPod Touch, so basically, iPod Touch buyers got scammed bing time, and the iPad Mini shouldn't even win the competition with the Nexus 7 and other devices.
The only reason why Apple is able to sell millions of devices without people questioning why the device costs so much and if there are any alternates, is because Apple is a giant bag full of BS. The iPhones, iPad, Ipods, Macbooks, iMacs, they all look great, the OS is beautiful, but NOTHING is actually "functional". A Mac has a beautiful and attractive OS, however, it is not as functional compared to Windows. iOS is beautiful, however compared to Android OS, it lacks innovation compare to Android. Android went from a terrible, buggy OS to a very nice looking AND functional OS in about 2-3 year. iOS was always the same, the dock on the bottom, the same looking icons, etc.
The iPad Mini may be a success for this generation, however, when people realize the lack of creativity and innovation of Apple, Apple will die. The only reason Apple is still alive, is because Jonny Ive is a magnificent designer. Without him, Apple would have been dead the moment Steve Jobs died.
