Apple announced the iPad mini 7 just over a week ago, and a review of the device was published yesterday. The iPad mini 7 upgrade is significant considering its chipset and ability to handle Apple Intelligence features. On the previous generation iPad mini, many users reported that their device experienced a jelly-like scrolling issue where one side of the display updated slightly faster than the other. Well, it looks like the company has fixed the jelly scroll for the launch of the iPad mini 7.
Apple has fixed the jelly scrolling issue on the iPad mini 7, with one exception.
I’ve seen dozens of reviews of the iPad mini 7, and most of them say that Apple has fixed the jelly-like scrolling issue on the device. Others said that the problem still persists, but is less noticeable this time. David Pearce, on the other hand, The Verge asked for a different opinion, noting that “the ‘jelly scroll’ effect of the previous model is still very much present.” In a post on the thread, Pearce claimed:
I’m sitting here scrolling through both the 2021 and 2024 Mini, and if forced to choose which is better, I’d say the 2024 is less shaky. But it’s still shaking. ”
As mentioned above, many reviewers say that Apple fixed the iPad mini 7’s jelly scrolling issue because it made changes to the display hardware to minimize the impact. Regarding this, Jason Snell of Six Colors writes:
I understand that the display circuitry on newer models is different than older models, but in my usage I couldn’t detect any “jelly-like scrolling”. It definitely hasn’t gone away. I’d love to see some sharp-eyed “jelly scrolling” experts report back with their results, but even when I record myself scrolling in a high frame, I’m sure I can’t see it I couldn’t do it. I set the rate and played it frame by frame.
Engadget’s Nathan Ingraham writes:
One piece of good news about the screen is that Apple appears to have fixed the “jelly-like scrolling” issue that plagued previous iPad minis. Jello scrolling occurs when one side of the screen doesn’t update at exactly the same rate as the other side. This was most noticeable in portrait mode on older iPad minis. This is something I didn’t notice while using the new iPad mini. I’m curious to know if this issue is completely resolved or if my eyes just didn’t notice it, but I’ll continue to use the iPad mini over the next few weeks to see if I can spot any display issues. is.
There are many other reviews you can check to know more about the jelly scroll issue. The issue arose after some users observed that one side of the display updates faster than the other, causing a wobble to appear on the screen, especially when reading text. We still don’t know why The Verge’s iPad mini 7 performed poorly. We will keep you informed of the latest information, so please check it out.
