How to Find the iPad mini 6 in Stock

How to Find the iPad mini 6 in Stock is a post by Adam Mills from Gotta Be Mobile.

Apple’s iPad mini 6 models have seen their shipping times slip. If you’ve run into problems finding the model you want, you’ll want to keep an eye out for new stock, look at other places to order, and look for stock in stores.

Shipping times for select iPad mini 6 storage sizes, colors, and carriers have been pushed into late November and they could get worse before they get better.

Apple’s encouraging shoppers to buy devices like the iPad mini 6 early because supply constraints will almost certainly impact holiday shopping this year. The company has provided shoppers with “order by” dates to help.

The Wall Street Journal says Foxconn expects supply chain issues to stretch into the second half of next year. So while we may see some improvements, things may not get back to normal until the latter part of 2022.

If you’re able to find the iPad mini 6 model you want in stock, and you want the new tablet in your hands as soon as possible, you’ll want to order right now if you can.

While some iPad mini 6 models might not ship until late November or later, you might be able to find one for in-store pickup at Apple or another retailer. That said, there’s no telling how much inventory each store will have so it’s a gamble.

If you’re having trouble finding your top choice in stock, you’ll want to track iPad mini 6 stock at Apple, carriers, and retailers to see if you can find one for delivery or in-store pickup. If you put in some time, you might be able to find what you’re looking for.

In this guide, we will help you find an iPad mini 6 in stock at Apple, your carrier, or at a retailer. You can try calling a store to inquire about the inventory on-hand, but you may just want to order online where you can see the estimated delivery date displayed on the site.

How to Find the iPad mini 6 in Stock

There are a few ways to quickly check for iPad mini 6 stock from your computer or your phone.

Perhaps the easiest way is to check via Apple’s website or via the company’s Apple Store application. Both the website and the app allow you to check iPad mini 6 stock at individual Apple Stores.

Choose the iPad mini 6 model you want and enter your local zip code. The site or app will show you what’s available for in-store pickup.

Some models are currently unavailable for in-store pickup. That said, we expect to see new stock emerge in the near future so you’ll want to check fairly often.

If you are unable to secure the iPad mini 6 you want at Apple, and you don’t want to wait weeks for delivery, you can check your carrier.

Open up your carrier’s app or click on the links below to get to the new iPad mini pages and then you can pick your model, color, and storage to see if you can get a quick delivery.

You should be able to see the estimated iPad mini 6 delivery dates before you check out. If the estimated ship date is too far out, you can try buying your tablet from a retailer.

Retailers like Best Buy and Walmart might show you a much faster delivery date even though Apple’s delivery estimates are pushed way out.

We’ll continue to update this guide as iPad mini 6 stock fluctuates throughout the year.

4 Reasons Not to Install iOS 15.1 & 11 Reasons You Should

Install iOS 15.1 for Better Security

1 / 15

If security is important to you, think about installing Apple's iOS 15.1 update right away.

iOS 15.1 has important security patches on board and they'll help protect your phone. You can read more about them on Apple's website.

If you missed iOS 15.0.2 you'll also get its security patch with your upgrade. You can learn more about it right here.

iOS 15.0 also brought numerous security patches to your iPhone. If you'll be moving up from iOS 14 and you're interested in the exact nature of these improvements, you can read about them over on Apple's security website.

If you skipped iOS 14.8 or any older versions of iOS, you'll get the security patches from those updates with your iOS 15.1 update as well.

In addition to those patches, iOS 15 comes with some security and privacy upgrades including improvements to Siri. Requests made to Siri are now processed on the device itself using Neural Engine. This makes it more secure.

If you're an Apple Card user, you'll now get a security code that changes regularly to use when you make online transactions.

Apple's also included a built-in authenticator that's similar to Google Authenticator. This will let you generate verification codes for enhanced sign-in security under your Passwords.

There's also a Mail feature that hides your IP address. The company will add a new App Privacy report feature in the next version of iOS 15 that will tell you when an app has accessed sensitive information.
