The iPad Mini 2 Has Functionality and Portability

The Apple iPad Mini 2 is a tablet computer that was first released in November 2013. You can use a Mini 2 whether you're at school, home, or on-the-go and want access to apps, photos, and other data.

What type of operating system does this iPad use?

The mini 2 comes with the iOS 7 operating system, and you have the choice of updating the system. The iPad Mini 2 can accept up to an iOS 11 system. Some of the differences are that the iOS 11 has:

  • A combined lock screen and notification center
  • An overhauled App Store
  • A file manager app
  • A unified control center
  • An updated Siri, which can translate between languages

What connectivity options are available?

All of the iPad Mini 2s can connect wirelessly to the internet through Wi-Fi and a wireless local area network. They can also connect to devices via Bluetooth 4.0. Those with the designation \"Wi-Fi + cellular\" in their names are able to access a cellular network. If you do go with a tablet that has cellular capabilities, you'll have to link your iPad to an existing plan or set up a new one. You'll have the option of setting Wi-Fi connectivity as your default setting so that you don't use up your data. This is important if you have limited data as part of your plan.
