Reports about the iPad mini have started to increase recently and the latest report has hinted at the possibility that the upcoming smaller version of the iPad may be manufactured in Brazil.

Citing unnamed source, Macotaka, a Japanese tech site, hinted at the possibility that the reported iPad mini may be produced at the Apple facility located in Brazil. Although the iPad mini may be produced in Brazil, product testing will be conducted in China.

Productionof the iPad mini is set to start by September and the upcoming device will be available in the market by October. A 3G model of the upcoming device will also be made available by the company.

Although the reported iPad mini will reportedly have a similar height as the Google Nexus 7 tablet, it will be a bit wider. The smaller version of the iPad of Apple will also be slimmer compared to all Android-powered tablets that are currently available in the market.

It remains uncertain if the upcoming device will feature the retina display of the new iPad although earlier reports have hinted at the possibility that the upcoming device will not come with this feature. Although recent reports on the possible features of the reported iPad mini remain unconfirmed, they appear to be consistent with earlier reports on the possible features of the upcoming device.

The lower specifications of the reported iPad mini will reportedly allow the device to compete with the Amazon Kindle Fire and the Google Nexus 7 tablet.

Reports have also hinted that the suppliers of Apple in Asia are already preparing for the production of the iPad mini.

It can be recalled that the late Steve Jobs had indicated that the size of the current iPad is the best size for tablet devices since a smaller size will render the device unusable. However the increasing reports of the upcoming iPad mini of Apple have give in indications that the company may not have the same point of view as the late founder of the company.
