Getting a new iPad is a tough decision since a lot of it has already been released in the market and it's hard to choose which one to purchase. This year, the Apple iPad series will get different protégés with remarkable structures and some distinctive patterns.

The giant tech company will soon release the iPad Air 3 and iPad Mini 5. There are rumors that Apple will possibly not name its upcoming tablet as Mini 5 but rather name it as iPad Pro Mini. Apple iPad users will surely review every specifications and feature that the new iPad Mini 5 has to offer.  

The iPad Mini 5 has a built-in Force Touch or 3D Touch technology which records the measure of pressure that was employed to the screen as well as providing differing options, iTechPost reported.

As Apple continues to release new products especially iPhones and iPads, expect that it will be built with a larger display and thinner body. However, if the device is small or thin itself, there will be less space for the battery.

According to Vine Report, the biggest concern to address is the battery life. Since iPad Mini 5 is relatively thinner it needs an A9 processor rather than the new A10.

IPad lovers need not worry since iPad Mini 5 will be equipped with Apple's mighty A9X processors. Aside from a thinner profile, it will be built with a 7000-series of aluminum alloy which is the same material that was used in manufacturing iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.

It was rumored that iPad's standard version of 16 gigabytes will no longer be used. Rather expect to see gigabyte versions of 32, 64 and 128 built-in preferences.

Meanwhile, there are reports that Apple is decreasing the number of its iPad models which perhaps includes iPad Air and iPad Mini lineup in order to enhance its sales and get rid of any rivalry between its multiple products.

Apple has not yet announced the launching of the new iPad; it might be a month or so after iPhone 7 series and the next-generation Apple Watch on Sept. 7.
