The new iPad mini is a pocket rocket of a computer. It’s got the power of a laptop but is smaller than an A5 notebook. It’s got a bigger screen, better stylus support, much faster processor, improved cameras, more advanced connectivity and it’s incredibly light.

The power-packed tablet is more capable than ever but you will have to pay a little extra for the pleasure. The 64GB model is £479 while the top of the range 256GB adds £140 to the price. And if you want 5G it’s an extra £150. But you are getting something special.

The most obvious update is the design, which switches to a new look with slimmer bezels and rounded corners. The edges of the iPad are now flat, which means a smaller body, but bigger screen, being boosted from 7.9 to 8.3 inches.
