We finally got an iPad Mini refresh, and it’s not particularly exciting. But that’s fine! It’s still a useful little tablet, and now thanks to the A17 Pro chip, it’s already ready for upcoming Apple Intelligence features. In this episode, Engadget Deputy Editor Nathan Ingraham joins to discuss what he liked about the new iPad Mini, and what he hopes Apple will eventually fix in future models. Also, we chat about Netflix abandoning its AAA game studio, and why over 10,500 artists signed a letter against AI training.
