- 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.

iPad Mini 7 (A17 Chip)
I bought the iPad mini (a17 chip) as I was in need for a new device to take notes for university classes. Before making this purchase I debated whether or not I should go for the bigger models however the portability is of this one is simply unbeatable. Performance wise, I’ve had no issues so far, I am constantly using 2 apps side by side (usually YouTube & Good Notes) and have had a great experience! The only disadvantage was the battery, I feel it drains way to quickly and usually half the charge lasts me for a 2-3 hour lecture. Adding to this, back camera quality is a bit on the lower side, could be better, however you don’t buy this device to take pictures. Finally, the last complaint was the price, it is an Apple branded device, however I feel you could wait for deals to get at least 100$ off! Other than that, great device, no regrets and would buy again especially with the smooth delivery experience provided.

Percent size and performance
I love the size of the iPad mini. Great for media consumption and if you need the extra power, the A17 pro is not shy to provide the needed performance. Everything you need in a compact and portable device. Traded the 12.9 inch to the mini and I absolutely love the size.

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.
