Apple, which has introduced many new products this year and increased prices on the products it introduced, will also disappoint those waiting for an iPad mini with an OLED screen.

According to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, Apple plans to introduce a new iPad mini model later this month. According to Gurman's claim, the price of the new model will increase significantly compared to the current version and approach $799.

This means a $200 difference compared to the iPad mini 7, which currently sells for $599. Apple's official announcement is awaited for the pricing in Turkey.

What could be the reason for the price increase?

According to Bloomberg's report, the new iPad mini will use an OLED screen for the first time in the series. According to Bloomberg's claim, the device will also feature a redesigned body, a new speaker system, and a more powerful processor.

Technical specifications of the screen, such as resolution and brightness, have not yet been finalized. According to the source, there is conflicting information among industry sources regarding whether the screen will support a 120Hz high refresh rate.

For users planning to buy an iPad mini, the potential $200 difference could be decisive in the purchasing decision. The transition to an OLED screen may make a difference compared to the current LCD panel, especially in terms of contrast and color accuracy, but whether this improvement justifies the price increase depends on user preference.

There is no urgent need to upgrade for current iPad mini 7 users; it would be healthier to make a decision after the official introduction and price confirmation of the new model.
