Nonetheless, tech observers believe that the highly anticipated iPad Mini 5 will be launched along with the new iPhone 7 in September this year. Although the rumored iPad Mini 5 has been pretty quiet in terms of rumors and speculations compared to the ever popular iPhone smartphone, several fans are excited for it to hit the market.

In a report by MacWorld UK, industry experts predict that the fifth model of the iPad Mini line will certainly come out at the end of the third quarter of 2016. The rumored release of the device along with the new iPhone does not really surprise the consumers since the exact thing had happened in 2015.

If rumors prove to be true, fans should not have to wait that long for the device to come out after it is being launched. The current iPad Mini device was rolled out not long after the Cupertino-based company decided to launch it. Many fans are positive that the same thing will happen this year.

Meanwhile, Yibada reported that the new tablet will arrive without the basic 3.5mm headphone jack. The publication added that the device is expected to sport an 8-megapixel primary shooter along with a .2 megapixel front-facing snapper. There are also speculations suggesting that the forthcoming device will be available in three variants – 32 GB, 64 GB and 128 GB.

As of the moment, fans should stay tuned for more news about the development and release date of the upcoming iPad Mini 5 tablet.
