iPad Mini 2 vs. Dell Venue 8 Pro: Apple’s Small Screen Tablet Pitted Against Budget Friendly Windows Favorite; Would You Go For The Premium Look Or The Affordable Choice?

iPad Mini 2 vs. Dell Venue 8 Pro: These two tabelts, the iPad Mini 2 and Dell Venue 8 Pro, only has size as its common denominator. But you could argue that though they may appeal to different market segments, it’s still worth knowing what makes them very different.

Here is a quick comparison to see which small tablet fits your taste.

The iPad Mini 2 measures 7.87 x 5.30 x 0.30 inches and weighs 341 grams, while the Venue 8 Pro has a dimension of 8.5 x 5.1 x 0.35 inches and a weight of 394 grams. In terms of portability, the Mini 2 is the lightweight champion here. In fact, it is currently the lightest tablet in the market.

When it comes to display, the Mini 2 is the winner again because of its sharper and more vibrant screen. Its 7.9-inch screen has a 2048 x 1536 resolution with a pixel density of 324ppi, while the Venue Pro 8’s slightly larger 8-inch screen has a 1280 x 800 resolution with only a 189 ppi pixel density. This shows that the Apple tablet’s screen is almost twice as better as the Dell’s.

Indeed, the iPad Mini 2 has the lead with a lighter and thinner design and more vibrant and high-resolution display. However, the Venue 8 Pro answers back with a 1.8 GHz quad-core Intel Atom processor with 2 GB of RAM that many critics are saying to be more powerful than the Mini 2’s 1.3 GHz A7 dual-core processor coupled with only 1 GB of RAM.

Nevertheless, the two small tablets guarantee a snappy and sound performance with minimal or even no glitches and lags.

Moreover, the Venue 8 Pro’s internal storage is available at 32 GB or 64 GB, while the Mini 2 has 16 GB, 32 GB, 64 GB, and 128 GB of internal memory.

So which one fits your taste? Well, if you’re after portability, an incredible viewing experience, and an iOS software, then the Apple iPad Mini 2 is the clear choice. But if you want a faster processor with all the perks of a Windows OS, then the Venue Pro 8 is for you.
