The first significant update of the iPad M<ini in quite some time is here with the iPad Mini 6th generation release. The new Mini includes design elements like an 8.9-inch display, top button configuration, and compatibility with the second-generation Apple Pencil. Plus, the screen looks incredible.
While the newer models of Apple products are more durable than their predecessors, it's still a good idea to get a case for your iPad Mini.
Cases help prevent scuffs and scratches so you can keep your tech looking great and can also save you a bent frame should you drop your iPad Mini. Why not save yourself the terror of dropping your shiny new iPad Mini on hard concrete with a case?
A good case will also let you get more out of your iPad. It can hold your Apple Pencil, prop the screen up for viewing videos, and keep it clean between uses.
What case you get will ultimately depend on you and your needs, but here are some options we've found for the 6th gen iPad Mini to get you started.
