• 5-core CPU with 2 super cores and 3 efficiency cores
• 7-core GPU
• Neural Accelerators
• Hardware-accelerated ray tracing
• 16-core Neural Engine

And here are the specs of the A20 Pro chip in the 512GB iPad mini configuration:

• 6-core CPU with 2 super cores and 4 efficiency cores
• 7-core GPU
• Neural Accelerators
• Hardware-accelerated ray tracing
• Dual 16-core Neural Engine

So much more expensive then the 2024 A17 Pro iPad Mini yet still 60Hz OLED, binned A20 Pro chip for non 512GB variant and start with 128GB in 2026. Time to look at discount clearance sales for 2024 iPad Mini 128GB.

Bought brand new iPad Mini 128GB on Dec 2024 at SGD$629 from Apple directly and damn...what kind of stupid price of SGD$999 in 2026 due to chip shortage.
