The iPad Mini 6 tablets have a "jelly" screen problem, and it's annoying. Apple has not yet responded in any way
Just last week official sales of the new iPad Mini 6 tablet launched, and it already has problems.
What's not
right?Users are complaining about "jelly" screen. This is when different sides of the display are scrolling through the picture at different speeds, causing the image to wobble. What this looks like live - shown by Dieter Bohn of The Verge:
Here is a slow-mo video of scrolling on the iPad Min i slowed down EVEN MORE in a frame-by-frame step through. Notice how the right moves up faster than the left.

In normal usage you barely see it, but every now and then it becomes noticeable. In landscape it goes away entirely pic.twitter.com/iq9LGJzsDI
After that, even people who have never noticed the problem noticed it before. And it's annoying: users not only look at the smoothness of the picture, but also spoil their eyesight this way.
What is interesting is that "jelly scrolling" occurs in mostly only in portrait orientation.
It's not yet clear what caused this - hardware or software problem. The media has contacted Apple for clarification, but the company is still not responding to user complaints and not commenting.
