The
iPad Mini 2 (stylized and currently marketed as the
iPad mini 2, previously marketed as the
iPad mini with Retina display) is the second generation
iPad Mini tablet computer produced and marketed by
Apple Inc. It has a design almost identical to that of the
first generation iPad Mini but features internal revisions such as the addition of the
A7 system-on-a-chip and 2,048 x 1,536 resolution
Retina Display. Internally, the iPad Mini 2 has nearly the same hardware as its sibling device, the
iPad Air. Apple quietly released the iPad Mini 2 in Space Gray and Silver colors on November 12, 2013.
