- A: AnswerAnswer to question 1: No, unfortunately the iPad Mini 7 (nor any other iPad for that matter) can’t keep the same phone number as the same person’s iPhone on either the WiFi-only or cellular model iPads. However, the way to get around this is to go to the Settings app on your iPhone, find the Phone app, scroll down to Calls On Other Devices under Calls, and turn on for the other Apple devices you may own (iPads, MacBook, iMac). Answer to question 2: No, unfortunately the iPad Mini 7 (as well as the 2024 iPad Pros and 2024 iPad Airs) is only compatible with either the Apple Pencil Pro or the Apple Pencil USB-C, and not the Apple Pencil 1st Gen nor Apple Pencil 2nd Gen nor the Apple Pencil lightning connector model. Apple did this to this year’s iPad Pro models and iPad Air models as well where Apple dropped compatibility with the Apple Pencil 2nd Gen (and Apple Pencils before it) for the iPad Pro 2024 series and iPad Air 2024 series, as well as the iPad Mini 7. Hopefully this helps.

Mini 7 is just a Mini 6 + newer system on a chip.
The iPad Mini 7th Generation is almost identical to the 6th gen, but with one key addition: Apple Intelligence. If you’re into note-taking, reading, and writing with the Apple Pencil Pro, this is a near-perfect handheld device. It fits comfortably in your hand, making it great for casual use and light web browsing. Just don’t expect it to replace your gaming iPad, its not for that. For pure readers, though, the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature is still the best choice. The e-ink display is unbeatable for long reading sessions. I grabbed mine with a price-match and a trade in my base model Mini 6. If you already own a 6th gen and it’s running smoothly, you’re probably fine sticking with it unless you really need Apple Intelligence to take your productivity up a notch in 2025. Otherwise wait for the 8th edition which will have a better screen. I give it 4 stars since I can’t tell much difference over my Mini 6.

Small but Mighty
I LOVE the iPad mini 7! The screen size is perfect for one hand and the new screen (way better than 10th gen) and processor will keep it fast for years. The colors are a little muted for my taste, but they’re still cute! The 128gb is plenty for most iPad users and a welcome upgrade to the previous 64gb which was a little limiting for me especially with movies or shows for the plane.

It's similar, yet different.
I really do not understand what people are complaining about with the new iPad Mini 7th Gen. I purchased the iPad Mini 6th Gen WiFi 64GB for $399, prior to knowing about the upcoming official iPad Mini 7th Gen, which happened a few days afterward. So, I returned the Mini 6th Gen and pre-ordered the Mini 7th Gen WiFi 128GB for $499. The Mini 7th Gen has the A17 Pro chip compared to the A15 chip in the Mini 6th Gen. The Mini 7th Gen has double the memory (8GB) over the Mini 6th Gen (4GB), offers 128GB-512GB storage rather than 64GB-256GB, and also has Bluetooth 5.3, rather than Bluetooth 5.0. Apple also did not raise the prices. Did I mention that the Mini 7th Gen has identical dimensions, meaning any prior cases, screen protectors, or other Mini 6th Gen accessories will fit perfectly. Yes, the Mini 7th Gen is currently $100 more than the Mini 6th Gen, but it is also 3 years newer, which means it will receive official iOS updates for 3 years longer. For me, I think it was worth the additional $100.
