iPad Mini 5 Could Be Unveiled During Apple’s Event on Tuesday

iPad Mini, which has not been updated since 2015, could be unveiled by Apple during its event that will take place on October 30th in New York. Moreover, it is likely that the upcoming iPad Mini 5 will be the cheapest tablet that Apple has to offer.

iPad Mini 5 could be as cheap as $300

According to Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst at financial services group TF International Securities, the next iPad Mini will have a lower-cost panel and an upgraded processor.

In the opinion of another expert, Daniel Ives, who is the Managing Director of Equity Research at Wedbush Securities, the price of this upcoming device will start at $300 or £230. He said that “$300 for the low-end price point for the Mini could be the horizon as Apple is aggressively looking to capture demand with this new iPad Mini”. Ives explained that “lower price points are key here to catalyze customer demand”. He also added that more advanced versions of iPad Mini 5 could be priced at $350-380.
