Ars Technica reports: Apple says the refreshed 8th-gen iPad mini marks the most significant update ever for its petite tablet, featuring an OLED screen and the A20 Pro chip that we first saw in the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Duo.

This technology story centres on the United States. Names and organisations mentioned in the coverage include OLED, Duo and Pro.
