     @arstechnica I use the ipad mini as an alternative to my phone so I welcome the upgrade, but wish they would have made it just a tad bit smaller (maybe by shrinking thr bezel in half). I like that it has a calculator app now but its still missing the watch app.

     @arstechnica I too am an iPad mini devotee, and since I skipped the 6th gen, the minor updates on the 7th gen just make this one a no-brainer for me.

     Now the only question is space grey, weird beige, silver, or other silver. #SpaceGraySeemsLikeANormalColorNow
