Although it may be somewhat thinner, to this designer’s eyes the rounded, rather than sloped, edges of the iPad mini make it appear to be less svelte and more clunky looking. Understandable if, as I suspect, this device is aimed at the educational market. Easier to hold in small hands.

The ‘bezel” around the camera lens appears much thicker than on the full-sized iPad.

Does the three buttons on the upper right side edge indicate separate buttons for volume up and volume down? And those buttons are white (light grey?).

And what’s with the two sets of speaker holes separated by a Lightening connector?

The back simply says iPad. To me, this says that at the time the photo was taken they were still undecided on what to call it.

It appears 7.85 is noticeably larger than a 7 inch display. This will be a big side by side differentiator in the mini’s favor, along with the aluminum case and being very thin. It will look beautiful, 10 million won’t be enough for the holidays.
