Introduction Apple had introduced the original iPad Mini without the RETINA display and that pretty much confirmed that the second generation of Apple iPad Mini would come with the RETINA display.

Excellent Build Quality and Premium Finish; Lot of tablet specific applications; Top notch performance; Excellent battery life

On the expensive side; Lack of expandable storage; Camera lacks flash and isn't great for lowlight performance; iOS 7 feels boring and same throughout

Review: Apple's second-generation iPad mini with Retina display

While Apple got almost everything right with the Retina iPad mini, there is a catch: The cost for every model has increased by $70 from last year's prices. The starting price for the iPad mini with Retina display is now $400.

Apple's Retina display standard once again lives up to the hype; The 64-bit A7 chip's performance impresses; just as it did on the iPad Air & iPhone 5s; Same great lightweight; ultraportable design as last year

Though lower-priced competition continues to improve; Apple has increased the iPad mini price by $70; Limited supply could make the Retina iPad mini hard to get for the holidays; Some may want to wait for Touch ID in a future model
