Poll: *** The Official iPad mini 7 thread (if you fall asleep and drop it on your head, it doesn't hurt as much as an iPad Pro and everything!) ***

I have been watching/reading the reviews and many are reporting the jelly scrolling issue fixed, or at least very significantly reduced.

Definitely reduced by a fair amount. I did the YouTuber clickbait test of a 6 (Mrs W’s) and the new 7 side by side, scrolling up and down like a maniac stoking the fires of nerd rage, and it’s definitely improved. Still there, but improved.

If anyone really wants to get wound up by jelly scrolling, have a look at the old Pixel C tablet!

I’ve no complaints about the 6 or 7 myself, and the issue never bothered me, but I can see why some are annoyed by it.

I’ve been waiting for so long to see this upgrade. Doesn’t seem a major upgrade but it’s enough for me. I’ve had my iPad for 5 years and just want something smaller for portability really. It arrives tomorrow.

120hz screen and I think I'd be in. The CPU/double RAM upgrade is solid.

I’ve not had a mini since the first one. I don’t need the big screen but I always end up with a pro for some reason!

The 6 is probably my favourite of all the ipads, brilliant size for kids and so easily portable whilst being usefully bigger than a phone.

Yea this year I’ve gone for the 16pro not the max, so the mini will now fill that gap! Looking forward to having a play tomorrow

I visited the Apple Store again yesterday and had another play with it. I tried several websites with text/graphics and I could not see the jelly scrolling effect at all, even with very rapid scrolling up and down.
