More rumors: https://9to5mac.com/2020/05/14/ipad-mini-apple-glasses-kuo/ Supposedly with a larger 8.5 to 9" screen. I'm assuming that just means they are reducing the side bezels, I'd be really disappointed if they physically made it larger. If anything I'd rather they made it physically smaller but kept the current screen size.

Who else is waiting for an ipad mini 6? I'm still on a mini 4 but it's definitely showing it's age as it can slow down quite a bit.

For sure a redesigned mini with Pro features would be awesome. I have no problem paying more for that of course.

I felt 7.9 screen was a bit too small when you have a 6.5 inch phone so if it does go to 8.5 to 9 inch then i think i would be tempted by it again.

Rumours are it will include mini LED screen so for that you would think it would have to be like a pro iPad in terms of design and Face ID.

I miss that smaller size. Contrary to what I thought, I actually prefer drawing on a smaller iPad. I would gladly trade in my 11" iPP for a smaller Pro that works with the Apple Pencil 2 and has quad speakers.

Is it that small sketchbook size that’s appealing to you?
 
This is definitely of high interest to me. I tried a Mini 5 but ended up returning it for an iPad Pro 11' (2018) because I needed more space to write, but I miss the pure readability of the Mini 5 (size wise).

My 11 max pro looks tiny next to my ipad mini, those screen sizes are not really comparable due to the difference in aspect ratio. I think I could fold my ipad mini in half and still have a larger screen.
