Apple on Tuesday announced a new generation of iPad mini equipped with the A17 Pro chip, which enables support for Apple Intelligence features. The new iPad is available for pre-order now and will arrive in stores in 29 countries next Wednesday, October 23rd. And if you’re curious, we already have a list of iPad mini 7 prices ranked by country.
iPad mini 7 price ranking by country
Nukeni, a research company known for ranking Apple device prices by country, has updated its list with the recently released iPad mini 7. The new iPad starts at $499 in the US for the 128GB Wi-Fi model. However, this is not the lowest price for a new iPad. The cheapest country for the iPad mini 7 is Hong Kong, with a starting price of $489.
In Malaysia, the base model iPad mini costs $510, similar to the US price (excluding tax). The list is quite long, so below we’ve listed the 10 countries with the cheapest iPad mini 7 prices.
- Hong Kong: $489
- US: $499
- Malaysia: $510
- Canada: $517
- Taiwan: $525
- Japan: $528
- Singapore: $534
- Australia: $537
- Thailand: $538
- South Korea: $550
So which country has the highest price for the iPad mini 7? In this scenario, Brazil leads the rankings, with the base model of the iPad mini priced at $1,063, more than double the price in the US . Turkey follows suit with a starting price of $701.
It is worth noting that this list only includes countries where Apple sells products directly through its official store. There are some parts of the world, such as Argentina, where products are even more expensive (although Apple doesn’t have an official store there).
Of course, prices can fluctuate for a variety of reasons. The main one is the exchange rate of the local currency against the dollar. Taxes imposed by each government also affect the cost of the product. For example, Brazil has a policy of imposing high taxes on imported goods. Meanwhile, Turkey has been facing a severe economic recession in recent years.
Details about the new iPad mini
The main new feature of the iPad mini 7 is undoubtedly the A17 Pro chip with 8GB of RAM, the same as the iPhone 15 Pro. Apple Intelligence is enabled on iPad mini because previous models had the A15 Bionic chip with only 3GB RAM and Apple Intelligence features are not available in iPadOS 18.1.
From the outside, the new iPad mini 7 looks exactly the same as its predecessor, except it’s available in two new colors: bright purple and blue. Apple has updated connectivity with Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, and USB-C 3.1 with speeds up to 10 Gbps.
Pre-orders for the iPad mini 7 are currently available on Apple’s website, but you can also find great deals on other iPad models on Amazon.
