Apple’s iPad mini has not seen an update since 2021, but indications suggest that a new model may be on the horizon.
Stock levels of the iPad mini are reportedly low in many Apple stores, which hints at a possible upcoming release. Industry insiders describe the current inventory situation as “constrained.”

These developments could indicate that Apple is preparing to unveil a new iPad mini soon, although specific details regarding the timing have yet to be confirmed, including whether it will coincide with the upcoming iPhone launch event on Sept. 9.
This isn’t the first instance of speculation surrounding a new iPad mini. Reports from July indicated that Apple is planning a 2024 release, possibly featuring the advanced A17 chip. This upgrade would enhance the iPad mini’s capabilities, including support for Apple Intelligence, leading to further expectations for AI integration.
