With the introduction of the iPhone 6 Plus with a 5.5-inch screen, many began to wonder if the iPad mini was worth having in Apple's product range .
Apple 's small tablet with a 7.9-inch screen appeared in 2012 to fill the gap between the 4 -inch iPhone 5 and the 9.7-inch iPad .
This was a logical move on Apple's, which had been stagnant in its choices for the screen size of the iPhone and iPad, but the success of the Nexus 7 led it to introduce the iPad mini.
However, the iPhone 6 Plus is a brand new modern device from Apple, with a screen that is just 2.7 inches smaller than the iPad mini.
Is it worth buying the iPad mini today? Should Apple slowly phase it out of the market?
Rumors about the next iPad already suggest a 12.9-inch screen, satisfying Apple fans who are asking the company for larger screens.
The market has shown that it prefers smartphones with screens between 5 and 6 inches , and the iPhone 6 Plus is exactly what consumers are asking for, in terms of its dimensions.
Most companies are gradually abandoning tablets at 7 inches, offering solutions at 8 inches and larger, while Samsung 's example with its commercially successful Note series shows the way for devices up to 6 inches and larger than 8 inches.
But what about those who have already bought the iPad mini? They probablyhave no reason to buy the iPhone 6 Plus. The 7.9-inch screen is sufficient for all the applications that the user can ask for and the iPad mini seems ideal, if one considers its dimensions that offer increased capacity compared to the 9.7-inch iPad.
The iPad mini, as it seems, will continue to exist in Apple's tablet range, just as the 8-inch Samsung and LG tablets, which have proven successful, will continue to exist
Consumers want a device with the right dimensions for portability and a sufficient screen to enjoy video, music and web browsing, along with performance for gaming, and the 7.9-inch iPad mini seems ideal.
If the iPad mini wants to buy a new iPhone, then the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 will cover it.
