It’s been over two years since the iPad Mini last got an update but that all changed today with the launch of the iPad Mini 6 at Apple’s September 14 launch event. Here’s everything you need to know about the brand new iPad Mini, including the price, release date and the new specs. iPad Mini 6 release date and price – When will the tablet be available?
Unfortunately, it looks as though Apple has increased the price of the tablet for 2021. Prices for the iPad Mini 6 start at S$749 and the tablet is available in Wi-Fi and cellular configurations. The previous Mini cost S$599, meaning you’ll need to pay S$150 more for the new model.

You can get the 64GB iPad for S$749, with that jumping to S$979 when adding cellular configurations. If you want more storage, you can get the 256GB variation, which starts at S$979 and jumps to S$1209 with cellular.

This time, the iPad Mini takes advantage of Touch ID, as well as a USB-C port for up to 10% faster data transfers when you’re on the go, and the ability to connect to various USB-C supported accessories.
There’s a new speaker system too that can play audio in stereo when the tablet is held in landscape. The iPad Mini will be available in four new colours – Purple, Pink, Space Gray and a uniquely-named Starlight shade. It also includes a 100% recycled aluminium enclosure, meaning all Apple tablets now feature the more sustainable enclosure.
