It looks like the release date for Apple's new tablet device, the iPad Mini 4 has been revealed along with its rumored new features and specs.
According to International Business Times, the Apple iPad Mini 4 is speculated to be released sometime in April 2015, while a separate report from News Everyday allegedly claimed that the Apple tablet will be out on June this year.

The News Everyday reports that Apple will also launch a much larger version of it iPad called the iPad Pro or the iPad Air Pro alongside the iPad Mini 4.

Gospel Herald adds that the iPad Mini 4 will have a anti-reflective coating on the laminated screen just like the iPad Air 2. Although the size of the screen is not yet mentioned, Gospel Herald speculated that if Apple were to go bigger on the iPad Min 4, it will have a screen size of 7.9 inches just like predecessor, or if they go smaller, then it is measured at 5.5 inches just like the iPhone 6 Plus.
PC Advisor reports that the iPad Mini 4 is equipped with 2GB of RAM, a Retina Display, an improved Touch ID, and an Apple Pay Integration. IBT commented that the new CPU and RAM capacity are expected to improve the battery performance of the iPad Mini 4 when its released in the market.
