The upcoming iPad mini is set to feature advanced hardware and design updates based on leaked Apple source code, according to MacRumors contributor Aaron Perris. The device will run on the A20 Pro chip, a reconfigured front-facing camera, and a new speaker system. Images of the new iPad mini, while only showing the front, reveal several notable changes.
Most prominent is the landscape orientation of the front-facing camera, making it the last iPad to adopt this positioning. Additionally, a small groove has been cut into the top of the display glass, likely housing the new speaker system. The volume and power buttons continue to be located on the top of the device. The leaked code suggests that the product launch is imminent, potentially happening by the end of October.
Bloomberg's Mark Gurman has previously reported that the next-generation iPad mini will include water resistance and an innovative vibration-based speaker, and the leaked icons support these claims. The iPad mini is also rumored to have a slightly larger screen, an OLED display, and other enhancements.
