The latest iOS 7 beta SDK release is no different. This time though a keen eyed developed has spotted that Apple is testing out an enhanced iPad mini and this evidence was discovered deep inside a hidden file in the SDK. This file lists all the Apple mobile devices that are capable of supporting the latest firmware version which is iOS 7. Additional informaiton found within the iOS 7 firmware seems to backup the existence of three new iPad mini devices and the model numbers given are iPad2,8, iPad2,9 and iPad2,10. For those who prefer internal talk, these are referenced as J75, J76 and J77. The iPad2,8 model is on teh s518950x platform which refers to the current generation A6 processor that can be found in the iPhone 5. The existence of a minature iPad with a bumped up processor spec will definitely bring a smile to plenty of faces. It is great news that Apple is testion out iPad mini models with faster processing capabilities but the internal files also bring with them some sad news and that is the lack of any reference to higher resolution graphical assesets which indicates that none of these iPad models have retina display. An additional set of files has to be added to apps for retina capable devices all of which are sppended with @2x to allow iOS to differentiate between the different image sizes. These references are missing from the exposed information. It is worth pointing out, that Apple is consistently testing out different specification of their publicly available product and very few of these actually make it into the hands of the end user. We did have reports early this year that the retina iPad mini wouldn't be made available until 2014 and today's report seems to confirm this.

It is small, light, powerful and of course backed by the App Store. There is one problem though and that is the lack of retina display. We have all be anxiously awaiting this addition but according to a new report, it seems that the retina display iPad mini won't be ready until 2014. When the iPad mini first launched it got away without having the retina disply that is a feature of all other Apple devices but with a new model expected, everyone does expect that the iPad mini 2 will have this feature. The iPad mini 2 is expected in the next couple of months and one report is now claiming that is may not actually feature retina display at least not for this year. It seems that a shortage of retina displays of the required size is set to push Apple's retina iPad mini back to 2014. This is disappointing but it is not the first time that we have heard rumors that the iPad mini might not get retina display in its 2nd generation. We are still hoping that this report is wrong but as always we have to wait for official confirmation before we take anything as truth. Another interesting thing that we have learned is that Apple plans to ship two version of the iPad mini when retina display does become available and consumers will have the option of puchasing a model with or without retina display. We don't know how this will work but it does suggest that Apple might just be struggling to meet its current price point when including the retina panel which is a concern for people who don't want to spend too much. The iPad mini has been a massive success for Apple and with the next generation model guaranteed to sell well, adding retina display should really seal the deal.
