I’d be all over an iPad mini Pro if it has 120Hz.

If it doesn’t have a 120hz screen I’m done with the Mini. Insane at this point in time to not have it, everything else I have is at least that.

Sounds really expensive.

It better not have a gimped 60hz screen if it's super expensive.

I don’t know any speaker system that’s NOT vibration-based. It’s how speakers work, so, yay?
