Apple's iPad mini 2 rumored to come with Aluminum body

Just got our hands over some leaked pics of Apple's upcoming iPad mini 2, leaked pics suggests that Apple's second generation iPad mini is virtually identical to its predecessor the iPad mini.

The only difference we see is that the Apple logo is no longer only printed on the cover but the logo is now its own mold implemented into the rear housing. We can't say anything this time that whether this is the prototype or the final version.

There is nothing much thrilling on the outside but we can wish that Apple will  give us a big surprise when it comes to the inside.

8-inch iPad Mini rumored to have 2 microphones

iPad Mini Prototype rumored to have 2 microphones which are located in the top-middle of rear shell of 8-inch tablet. The microphone are usually used for noise-canceling and to improve audio pickup. We come to know about this by looking at some new pictures of a 8-inch iPad Mini. 

”According to our sources, Apple had originally planned to incorporate what appears to be a second microphone in the recent version of the iPad mini.

The photos show the prototype iPad mini with an extra hole centered, atop the rear of the device. It is unclear as to why Apple withheld the second microphone from the final product release, my guesses would be that it was axed out to cut down on cost, or to be preserved for a future generation iPad mini.” -says Sonny Dickson, who has provided accurate intel and photos of leaked components in the pas.

And on seen the leaked pics the rumors can never be materialized, as the production version of the first-gen mini does not have a hole in the top of its rear casing.

Thus this rumor explains many things, firstly it validates the reports that claimed the iPad mini would have a rear mic and secondly it explains all those mini cases with the holes in their backs. But this is not good for Apple as they must have planned to pull all this at last time.

The best thing is the iPad 5 will have rear mic located one located right next to its rear camera, so we expect the next-gen mini will too have.

Dickson says that typically, prototypes are stolen by Foxconn workers and sold to Chinese case manufactures for a price in upwards of 38,000 RMB, or about $6000 USD.
