SINGAPORE: Singapore's three major telcos will be offering the new iPad mini and fourth-generation iPad that were unveiled in the United States on Tuesday.

Apple announced that it will start shipping the fourth-generation iPad, as well as the WiFi model of the iPad mini to Singapore next Friday.

It will ship the 4G versions of the two devices a couple of weeks later.

The three telcos, SingTel, StarHub and M1, said in separate statements that they will offer the new iPad mini and fourth-generation iPad in the coming weeks and customers will be able to connect to their 4G network with speeds of up to 75 Mbps.

They added that details on pricing and availability dates will be released in due course.

According to the Apple website, prices of the iPad mini start from S$448 for the 16GB WiFi model and can cost up to S$878 for the 64GB model with 4G connectivity.

Apple said the iPad mini is 52 per cent lighter and 23 per cent thinner than the third-generation iPad.
