Hands-on with the new OLED iPad Mini
Hands-on with the new OLED iPad Mini
We’ve gotten to play around with Apple’s next small tablet.
我们已经上手体验了苹果下一款小型平板电脑。
Apple announced a new iPad Mini with a larger OLED display this week, and we’ve just gotten to try it out at Apple’s “Pro and tell” event.
苹果本周发布了一款配备更大 OLED 显示屏的新款 iPad Mini，我们刚刚在苹果的“Pro and tell”发布会上对其进行了试用。
It’s an iPad for sure, but the new OLED on the Mini looks exceptional, and the optional nano-texture matte finish is awesome. The “Pro and tell” event venue has soft lighting that’s not the most conducive to blinding glare on displays, but the matte finish pretty much squashes it entirely.
这无疑是一款 iPad，但 Mini 上新的 OLED 屏幕看起来非常出色，可选的纳米纹理哑光涂层效果也很棒。“Pro and tell”活动现场的灯光柔和，虽然不是最容易产生刺眼屏幕反光的环境，但这种哑光涂层几乎完全消除了反光。
Moving the front-facing camera to the long edge is also a welcome change, matching other recent iPad models. (The shift means that the whole iPad line has the camera that way.) The reliance on Touch ID instead of Face ID is still a bummer, though.
将前置摄像头移至长边也是一个受欢迎的改进，使其与其他近期 iPad 机型保持一致。（这一调整意味着整个 iPad 产品线现在都采用了这种摄像头布局。）不过，依然依赖 Touch ID 而非 Face ID 还是令人感到遗憾。
The 8th-generation iPad Mini, revealed on Monday, has an 8.5-inch OLED screen, thinner bezels, and a higher peak brightness of up to 1,200 nits. The display still tops out at a 60Hz refresh rate instead of hitting 120Hz.
周一发布的第八代 iPad Mini 配备了 8.5 英寸 OLED 屏幕、更窄的边框，以及高达 1200 尼特的峰值亮度。显示屏的刷新率上限仍为 60Hz，并未达到 120Hz。
It’s equipped with an A20 Pro chip, though the 128GB and 256GB models have five CPU cores, while the 512GB model gets six. Apple has also touted the new iPad Mini’s “Acoustic Display,” which includes woofers “paired through the display to produce punchier bass and more volume.”
它搭载了 A20 Pro 芯片，其中 128GB 和 256GB 版本拥有五个 CPU 核心，而 512GB 版本则拥有六个。苹果还大力宣传了新款 iPad Mini 的“声学显示屏”（Acoustic Display），其中包括“通过显示屏耦合的低音扬声器，以产生更有力的低音和更大的音量”。
The new iPad Mini starts at $699 and comes in two colors: starlight and midnight. It’s available to preorder now ahead of its launch on November 6th.
新款 iPad Mini 起售价为 699 美元，提供星光色和午夜色两种选择。该产品现已开启预购，并将于 11 月 6 日正式发售。
