As we approach Apple fall product season, the rumors and supply chain leaks just keep coming. This time, we get a look at the new iPad mini industrial design thanks to alleged aluminium case molds photographed by website Techordo; these are typically used by case manufacturers to produce accessories for Apple’s upcoming devices before they are available.
The iPad mini 6 will represent a major step in the evolution of the iPad mini’s product line which has not really changed its industrial design ever, since it was first introduced in 2012.
The new iPad mini is expected to be announced and released sometime in the fall.
Apple is also expected to be readying a slimmer design update for the base model 9.7-inch model, in addition to giving it a processor spec bump, as previously reported by Bloomberg. However, it will surely be the radically-new iPad mini getting all the attention.
