I saw the jelly scrolling in action just the other day from my neighbor's mini 6. Its actually quite apparent and annoying.

I could not use this day to day.

Only on Apple fansites an 8% price drop is newsworthy I guess :)

Unfortunate. I have the previous ipad mini and love it. No jelly roll Issue. I just can’t use the apple pencil 2 on it. I much prefer the new flat edged design. Soon as they fix it, I will nab one of the new ones. ??

You are correct, I was looking at the 256 version.
I agree with you on pricing.

To me it should be $359 for 64GB WiFi and $499 for 256GB WiFi

Cellular models should also only bump things about $50 at this point.

The Apple gouging on that hasn't changed in a decade.
They are still treating that as though Cellular is some incredibly niche and costly hardware.

It's insane.

I messed with an iPad mini at Best Buy a few days ago and I could not at all see what it was. I think this issue must be similar to the one that some of the newer phones have, PWM flickering I believe, where certain people can see it and other cannot.
