Apple’s iPad mini two and mini 4 are older generation iPad models. The mini 2, which is formally named the iPad mini 2 launched in 2013, while the iPad 4 was launched in 2015. The iPad mini 4 is similar in many ways, but the mini 4 is an upgrade, so naturally, it is a step or two above iPad mini 2 when it comes to performance and quality.

There have been small adjustments made to demonstrate the improvement, such as its size. The mini four is thinner and lighter, and therefore more portable than the mini 2. The mini 4 is 0.65 lbs, 8.0 inches tall, while the mini 2 is 0.73 lbs and 7.87 inches tall. The mini 2 and 4 use retia display with 326 PPI resolution of 2048 by 153 pixels. Consequently, Apple halted the distribution of the iPad mini 2 in 2017.

IPads are products from the Apple brand. Over the years, there have been many iPad models that have been released. With each release, there are many differences between them. The same goes for comparing the iPad Mini 2 to the iPad Mini 4. One of the improvements that came with the iPad Mini 4 is in regard to glare. Many people like to use their iPads outside, for places like the beach or a park. The 4 is better for this, for it has less glare. Another difference between the two is that the 4 is lighter in size, compared to the 2.
