iPad Mini 2 Design
This is a 2nd generation tablet from Apple which has the same appearance as its predecessors. iPad Mini 2 is equipped with Retina Display to make it more comprehensible. In terms of height and width, it’s kind of smaller than that of Samsung coming at 200 mm tall and 134.7 mm wide and weight of 331 grams.

The edges for this device are curved, the profile is thin and body is light which offers a please feeling on the palms when held.
This iPad’s iconic home button a little below the display and the 1.2 mega pixel camera facing the user with light sensor are features on the surface of this new device. However, there was no change done on the design buttons and ports for this tablet.
Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1
Just like iPad Mini 2, Samsung’s tablet has the same design with its predecessors too. The back of this device is a dark glossy plastic with silver colored trim around. This serves as home for smudges and fingerprints which are very difficult to keep clean. Galaxy Tab 3 is also thin and light offering the user with pleasant holding experience even if he/she has to hold the tablet for a long duration of time. The left and right side bezels were reduced in order to make the device smaller than the older Samsung devices.
