Apple is all set to host an event on September 9. The annual launch show with the tagline “It’s Glowtime” is highly expected to showcase the iPhone 16 lineup along with a new Apple Watch and a new pair of AirPods Pro. As we wait for the grand launch event, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman spreads rumors that Apple may soon unveil the iPad mini 7. It is being said that the stock of the current iPad Mini in Apple stores has reduced. The iPad Mini has not been updated since 2021.
Mark Gurman at This suggests that an upgrade to the tablet is likely soon.
I’m told that many Apple Stores are out of stock of the iPad Mini in many configurations, while the device is considered “discontinued” internally within Apple. That *could* be a sign that someone new is coming. It has not been updated since 2021. It wouldn’t be surprising to see it updated for AI.

The Apple analyst has not confirmed details about the iPad Mini 7, but he claims that it may come with Apple Intelligence support.

Apple’s iPhone launch events are also a platform for additional hardware updates. The company also announced the iPad Mini 6 (Review) alongside the iPhone 13 lineup in 2021 at its September event, which is a hint that an upgraded Mini 7 could arrive soon next month.
The iPad Mini 6 is powered by the A15 Bionic processor and is priced at Rs. The Wi-Fi variant with 256GB storage is priced at Rs 64,900. The seventh-generation iPad Mini is expected to come with Apple Intelligence features, which means the tablet is likely to get a major processor upgrade from the A15 SoC of the previous generation iPad Mini.
