Battery Unit of the Apple iPad Mini, Photos Leaked

A 4490mAh battery with 16.7Whr of energy and runs at 3.72 volts is rumored to be the battery unit set to power the iPad Mini. Those specs will tell us that this battery unit for the yet-to-be revealed slate is approximately three times that of the iPhone 5’s battery and just about a third of the latest iPad’s power.

We found this bit of rumor when alleged photos came out and the markings on the unit are more or less the same as the ones on the available Apple products. But none of these can be confirmed yet. Well, we will have to wait for the release of the iPad mini on October 23 just to be sure.

No iPad Mini Announcement on the 17th: Moved to October 23?

We are sure that iPad shoppers were quite excited when October 17 started, pretty worried in the middle and seemed lost when it went by without so much as a fuzz in the rumor mills. October 17 was supposed to be the day when the invitation for the Apple event will be handed out. Since we received no such news, it might be safe to say that those rumors will just remain rumors. But another day provides for another rumor. Hope is not entirely lost as this new rumor suggests that the announcement event was just postponed to October 23.

The new rumors offer the same standing as its predecessor but at least it holds together our almost-shattered hopes. The sources of this new rumor shared this tidbit with journalists at AllThingsD. AllThingsD seems to trust this new source.

If the rumors were to be taken as fact and the event will push through on the 23rd, Apple should be handing out the invites by next week so we will surely gather more intel by then. The end of October proves to be a very busy time for the tech world as the major players in the industry will be launching or announcing their new products by then.

The iPad Mini announcement on the 24th will be followed by the launching of Microsoft’s Windows 8 OS and its own tablet, the Surface tablet on the 26th. Three days after, the 29th, Microsoft will stage its Windows Phone 8 OS. LG’s Nexus phone is also believed to be launched on that same day.

The last few days are definitely going to be eventful.

Apple iPad Mini - What does it look like?

There has been so many videos leaked about how exactly the Apple iPad Mini looks like. Just like the iPhone 5 leak, it’s pretty sure that this rumor looks promising.

The iPad Mini looks like the smaller version of the iPad. Considering Apple’s conservative product design, this iPad Mini leak probably looks the real thing.

Rumor has it that the announcement of the iPad Mini will be done this October.

Most iPad users may think that the iPad could be a bit more compact to really enjoy it on the go. But with the Apple iPad Mini coming maybe these people would really enjoy this more compact tablet from Apple.

iPad Mini Shortage

The iPad Mini seemed to be the next awaited Apple product this year which is said to be scheduled for launch this end of October. The iPad Mini is yet to be launch but it is already expected that there will be a shortage of supply. It was said that finding the specs for the iPad Mini is challenging.

 

According to Brian White from Topeka Capital Markets, if it wasn’t for the complications of the specs supply, iPad Mini would have launched already last September. However, he said that despite the supply challenges, suppliers were able to produce an acceptable volume of iPad Mini for the launch next month. The challenges of iPad Mini supply might hold the full sales potential for a couple of months after it’s released.

The 7.85-inch iPad Mini is expected to cost between $250 and $300. More expensive compared to Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle Fire and less expensive than the full blown iPad.

This device was said to maintain Apples iconic aesthetics of the current iPad and perhaps knock-out competitors’ tablet.

iPad Mini: The Revelation?

As of today, Apple remains tight-lipped about the possibility of adding another product to the iPad family, the iPad Mini. However, if the rumors be true, the innovative company is suiting up for an iPad Mini announcement which will probably be hitting the world on October 17. Wow, that’s just two weeks from now.

 

This exciting piece of news supposedly came from an Apple investor who got wind of these juicy bits from various sources and eagerly conveyed them to Fortune. If this event will truly push through, the VIPs will most possibly receive their invitations by email on October 10. So watch out for that!
