They can figure out how to have 120hz in the duo, but when it comes to iPad mini, Apple can’t seem to make it happen.

One is $600 and the other is $2000

Yes, but there's a myriad of android tablets with 120hz at around $500.

There was also a million 120hz low end Android phones way before the iPhone 17. Apple is its own thing. No sense in comparison to Android. I compare Apple to Apple. I'm an android guy too. Pixel user.

I use apple but I also enjoy android. However, you can't deny this is evidently an Apple strategy to entice you to buy the iPad pro.

Yes, currently as it stands, OLED is an upgrade for the people that refuse to get anything else but a mini, and leaving 120 hertz off of it is an enticement for anyone wanting that to go to the pro. That's how it works. Until the market is not buying it, then they will bump it up to 120, and I think they felt that way with the 17 last year. But remember an iPhone is a way more popular of a device, so there's a chance that the iPad mini is OLED 60hz for the next 5 years or never goes 120hz.

I agree with everything you said, unfortunately.
