iPad Mini 4 With 128GB of Storage Now Starts at $399 as 32GB Model Discontinued

Apple today announced that the iPad mini 4 now offers more capacity for the same price. The 128GB model with Wi-Fi now starts at $399, which was previously the price for the 32GB model with Wi-Fi, which has been discontinued. A cellular model with 128GB of storage is also available for $529.

Apple has also introduced a new low-cost 9.7-inch iPad and discontinued the iPad mini 2 as part of its tablet lineup refresh. Japanese website Mac Otakara had claimed that Apple would release a 7.9-inch iPad Pro, but other analysts had disagreed, and it turns out the rumor was indeed incorrect, at least for now.

The newly priced iPad mini 4 is available now on Apple.com in Silver, Gold, and Space Gray with next-day shipping.

Person walks into a store...
Sees a big iPad for $329
Seems a smaller iPad for $399, with a slower processor, but with 4x the storage...

That seems confusing

Also disappointing as I'm a huge fan of the mini form factor. Hopefully this is just to make room for the "Pro" lineup with 7.9,10.5,12.9

Seriously starting to hate this company. I don't need an iPad because it's a **** product but seriously.... when was this last updated?

Thanks for extra storage after 2 years and same price? They really think they have no competition. At least put in new chips in these things. Is this their new trend weren't they selling a 2012 MacBook Pro for 5 years never updating it a few months ago

The Mini 4 is still a very capable device and at this spec/price is now surely a no brainer purchase for anyone looking for an ultra-portable iOS tablet device.

Does this mean we'll never see a meaningful update to the Mini again? So disappointing.
