iPad mini is a smaller version of the iPad that retains all of the same features as the full-sized iPad, including a beautiful 7.9-inch display, powerful A5 chip, 10-hour battery life, built-in apps like Photos, Maps, Siri and over 275,000 apps from the App Store. It also has an iSight camera capable of recording 1080p HD video and a FaceTime HD camera for video calling. Though smaller, iPad mini provides the full iPad experience in a more compact form factor that is thin, light and portable.

The iPad mini display stands out in all the right ways.
It has the same 1024‐by‐768 resolution as iPad 2 — in
a size that’s significantly smaller. So everything looks
incredibly crisp and sharp. And since the iPad mini
display has 35 percent more screen area than a 7‐
inch tablet, everything is easier to read and interact
with. The iPad mini display is also designed to take
greater advantage of every pixel. So apps, magazines,
and documents fill the screen, from top to bottom
and edge to edge. In portrait and in landscape.

iPad mini is small. But when you use it, it doesn’t feel
small. That’s because it’s designed to give you the
maximum amount of screen in the minimum amount
of space. To achieve that, we had to rethink the
relationship between the screen and the overall
shape of the product. iPad has symmetrical bezels
around all of its edges. But for iPad mini, we reduced
the width of the bezels on two sides of the display. So
although the screen is smaller, it’s even more
prominent. Rethinking the screen meant we also had
to rethink the software behind it. iPad mini
intelligently recognizes whether your thumb is simply
resting on the display or whether you’re intentionally
interacting with it. It’s the kind of detail you’ll
notice — by not noticing it. And it’s a great example
of how Apple hardware and software work together
to give you the best experience possible.

Megapixels matter. But the quality of a photo is determined by other things, too — like the camera’s
optics, image signal processor, and software. The iSight camera uses advanced optics to give you the
best picture possible. With an ƒ/2.4 aperture and a five‐element lens, it captures light efficiently to
produce a sharper and brighter overall image. And the hybrid infrared filter — typically reserved for
expensive SLR cameras — keeps out harmful IR light for more accurate, uniform colors.

How a product looks and performs matters, but so does its impact on
the environment. That’s why nearly every Apple product is made from
highly recyclable materials like aluminum, and why we refuse to use
harmful toxins in our components.
Every iPad mini is free of brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and
polyvinyl chloride (PVC). In fact, Apple has one of the strictest BFR‐
free and PVC‐free standards in the industry. And we expect the same
from our suppliers. We go so far as to disassemble our products into
individual components and materials in our Cupertino lab. Then we
test them using many methods, including X‐ray fluorescence
spectroscopy and ion chromatography. We do this to ensure that
every product we release meets our environmental standards.

Tap FaceTime to make a video call.
FaceTime closes the distance between you and the people you
care about — from miles to inches. To make a video call, tap
FaceTime. Then select a name, wait for the person to accept the
call, and smile big. FaceTime works over Wi‐Fi or cellular networks,
so you can wave hello from practically anywhere.
Switch between cameras during a call.
On the front of iPad mini is a FaceTime HD camera. On the back is
an iSight camera. You can switch between them anytime during a
call. So one minute your friends see you, and the next they see
what you see.
Start with your Apple ID.
All you need to start making FaceTime video calls is a free Apple
ID. If you’ve purchased anything from the iTunes Store or the App
Store, you already have one. If you need an Apple ID, you can
create one at My Apple ID.

Find a café. Find a restaurant. Or find yourself looking down on the Empire State Building. Beautifully
designed from the ground up, Maps will change the way you see the world
More beautiful maps.
Elements in Maps are vector based, so graphics and text are
incredibly detailed — even when you zoom all the way in — and
panning is smooth. Use the tilt and rotate gestures to view an
area, and Maps keeps the names of streets and places where
they belong.
Turn‐by‐turn navigation.
As you approach a turn, Maps speaks the directions, so you can
watch the road. Follow along with 3D views: Signs and arrows
make it easy to see where you’re headed. And if traffic’s bad,
Maps offers alternative routes.
Traffic info.
Maps uses real‐time traffic conditions to calculate your ETA. You’ll
also get details about incidents that are causing traffic jams, so
you can tell if there’s a major accident ahead or just a
temporary slowdown.

See the world from a whole new perspective with photo‐realistic
and interactive 3D views of select major metro areas. Explore like

Siri is the intelligent assistant that understands what you say, knows what you mean, and has the
answers you need. And now Siri understands more languages, so it does more things in

Get things done.
Say something like “Text my wife… I’ll be there in 15 minutes.” Or
“Find a good Italian restaurant nearby.” Siri figures out the right
apps to use, then, just like a personal assistant, it replies with the
answer. Siri makes FaceTime calls, sends messages, schedules
meetings, sets reminders, and more.
Get ready for movie night.
Ask Siri to find upcoming showtimes, look up movie facts, play
trailers, and more. Siri can also show you ratings and reviews from
Rotten Tomatoes.

Siri helps you find restaurants by cuisine, price, location, outdoor
