Background and Identification
After a few years without an update, Apple refreshed the iPad Mini and Air tablets in March of 2019. The new Mini keeps the same form factor and chassis as the previous Mini tablets, but gets an updated display with Pencil support and a spec bump to Apple’s latest A12 chipset. The Mini 5 comes in three colors: Silver, Space Grey, and Gold.
There are two variants of the iPad mini 5: a Wi-Fi only model and LTE-enabled version.
The most often replaced iPad mini 5 parts include the battery, screen, and home button assembly.
