Apple on Tuesday introduced the new iPad mini, supercharged by the A17 Pro chip and Apple Intelligence, the easy-to-use personal intelligence system that understands personal context to deliver intelligence that is helpful and relevant while protecting user privacy. With a beloved ultraportable design, the new iPad mini is available in four gorgeous finishes, including a new blue and purple, and features the brilliant 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display.

Malcolm Owen for AppleInsider:

The initial benchmarks of the seventh-gen iPad mini have surfaced, with records revealing about a 30% increase in performance over its predecessor.

Searches in Geekbench 6’s results show that there is a considerable improvement when it comes to the use of the A17 Pro in the new iPad mini.

AppleInsider averaged a selection of results, and determined that the Geekbench single-core performance scored 2,801. For multi-core, it made it to 6,796.

These are both improvements compared to the iPad mini 6, which used the A15 Bionic. The seventh-gen model has seen a generational improvement of 32% for single-core performance, and 27% for multi-core testing.


MacDailyNews Take: The A17 Pro is no joke.
