Does ipad send text messages with mobile version?

For friends who travel frequently, iPad mini5 is a recently launched mobile device, which can meet the needs of entertainment, office and other scenes. So, what's so special about the cellular version compared with the ordinary Wi-Fi version? This article will reveal the secret for everyone.

The packaging of the cellular iPadmini5 is similar to the Wi-Fi version, except that there are more card pins and network access licenses in the box. Moreover, there are only two differences in appearance between the cellular version of iPadmini5 and the Wi-Fi version, one is the injection-molded antenna strip on the back of the fuselage, and the other is the card slot on the frame. The weight of the fuselage is slightly 8 grams, but it can also be easily held with one hand and clicked with the other hand.

The mobile version of iPad mini5 uses nano-sim card. This card slot can be inserted into an ordinary mobile phone card, but it can't answer calls and send and receive text messages. However, the operator to which the mobile phone card belongs prompts that the SMS will be sent to the device as usual.

Here is a note. The common targeted traffic packages or targeted traffic-free services on mobile phones cannot be used on the mobile version of iPad. For example, Youku Directed Traffic Packet, King Card, etc. The iPad version of the application is not supported (if you install the iPhone version of the application on the iPad, you can support free traffic). Therefore, when choosing a data card for the cellular iPad, you can directly choose the unlimited flow card launched by the operator.

During the testing of iPad mini5, I always regarded the cellular version of iPad mini5 as my main mobile communication device. You can install the iPad version of WeChat and Alipay to support mobile payment. As long as this is the case, the cellular version of iPad mini5 can meet almost all my needs for mobile phones.

On the screen, the iPad mini5 supports the original color display and P3 wide color gamut, with a screen reflectivity of 65,438+0.8%, and the official claim that its brightness is 500 nits. This parameter is far less than iPhone XS max. Therefore, the screen of iPad mini5 is not satisfactory in direct sunlight.

Regarding the cellular version of iPad, people usually just think that the difference between the two is whether the SIM card can be inserted. But in fact, the navigation function of the cellular version is more accurate than that of the Wi-Fi version.

On the basis of the normal version, the mobile version of iPad mini5 adds the same auxiliary GPS, GLONASS satellite navigation, Galileo navigation and quasi-zenith satellite system as the iPhone. It is said that this is because the US military usually buys a large number of cellular iPad to replace bulky and difficult-to-locate paper maps and use them to better help the US military fight.

However, it is embarrassing that Baidu map and Gaode map, which people often use at present, are not suitable for the iPad version. Therefore, although the navigation function of the honeycomb board iPad mini5 is equivalent to that of the iPhone, few ordinary people use the navigation function on the iPad. At the same time, it also highlights the reality that the iPad obviously does not have as many applications as the iPhone. In addition to maps, there are some offline service applications such as cat's eye movies and so on. This may cause trouble for users to use iPad in the future.

The next thing to say is the part of traffic consumption. Just like ordinary game scenes, there is not much difference between iPad and iPhone under the same image quality and signal strength. A 32-minute session of Peace Elite consumes about 30M of traffic, and a session of the glory of the king with 17 minutes consumes about 10M of traffic.

But if it's a scene of visiting e-commerce, brushing Weibo, watching videos, looking for web pages, etc. Then the traffic consumption of iPad mini5 is much more than that of iPhone. So in any case, you must remember to prepare a sim card with unlimited traffic for surfing the Internet.

Then there is endurance performance. After all, the iPad mini5 is much larger than a mobile phone and is equipped with a battery of 565,438+000 mAh, so its performance in battery life is naturally better than that of a mobile phone.

There is no problem with mild use for a few days, and a day and a half is enough for heavy use. I play the glory of the king 15 minutes by myself, which consumes 4% electricity. Some people once insisted on continuous games, and finally persisted for about five hours. However, some netizens broke the news that the battery of iPad mini5 is aging a bit fast. As it is newly bought, I haven't encountered such a situation yet, but I will pay attention to it.

Finally, it can be said that the function of the mouth is to take pictures. Although there is no difference in parameters between iPad mini5 and iPad mini4, it is a very old 8 megapixel camera.

The picture above shows a photo sample.

However, due to the introduction of A 12, it can support many AR applications, such as measuring the size of items. Video calling and QR code scanning are also enough.

The above is a simple experience about the mobile version of iPad mini5. To sum up here, the screen quality of the mobile version of iPad mini5 is not outstanding, which makes its outdoor performance still have a big gap with the mobile phone. However, because users can use high-quality iPad applications on the iOS platform anytime and anywhere, and basically cover the needs of most users in games and mobile payment, it is more cost-effective than the 20 18 iPhone, which makes the cellular iPad mini5 the best mobile iOS device.

Finally, I suggest that the cellular iPad mini5 is not a product suitable for everyone. After all, the price is nearly 1000 yuan higher than the Wi-Fi version. But if you are a friend who needs a mobile office, then you can consider this product.
