iPad Mini 6 Jelly Scroll - Should you care??

iPad Mini Jelly scroll, how bad is it? Can the jelly scrolling effect on iPad Mini be fixed by a software update? Or is jelly scrolling on iPad Mini 6 a hardware problem? Is the jelly scroll even really an issue and should you return your iPad Mini 6?

I saw this on my iphone before but didnt really mind it, it was not bad. Now I checked my old iPad in landscape mode and it has it but its nowhere near as bad as the new mini. I tested one at the store today and the jelly scrolling was very noticeable in portrait mode. Because i use my ipad in portrait mode 99% of time, I can't buy this. A shame as I waited for a new mini for a long time.

[@Liguritio]

Liked the way you fairly mentioned it. Could agree that something that’s been existing elsewhere too on other panels. It may or may not effect everyone or every unit. Even so this may not be a major issue owning to other factors of usages to observe this. But my question is for a premium price relatively, is it fair on Apple’s part to use a sub standard panel on this iPad, if it’s the panel quality that would partly dictate this issue ¿

[@PatrickRambles]

Thanks! No it would not be fair. Apple doesn't have a stellar reputation in that department.

In a world where people are swearing by 120hz screens, there really isnt any excuse for this, ESPECIALLY considering the price. Normally, you will be holding this in portrait mode to view PDFs and other documents. Yes, I noticed it even without someone telling me about it - I was only glad someone could confirm the phenomenon I couldnt explain. Other people Ive shown it to noticed that when viewing documents, it was mildly dizzying. This is quite unlike any experience Ive had with other Ipads and definitley NOT the case with the Mini 5.

[@Millicente]

People keep saying the same thing about the blooming on ipad pro 12.9. "It's not an issue, during normal use you will probably never notice it." Well sadly everyone has different use cases as well as different sensitivities to different visual stimuli. The bloom on the ipad pro for me is way too noticeable and strains my eyes because over extended reading or watching sessions at night in bed, my eyes start to treat it like blurry images and starts to try to focus harder to get rid of it. In short I say if you see this jelly scroll, and if it bothers you, return the item. You shouldn't have to convice yourself by watching a youtube video to keep anything you paid your hard earned money for.

[@PatrickRambles]

Kind of what we concluded in the vid.

[@wakinguptothetruth.2566]

The problem is only Apple offer the return within 14 days if not happy policy, the vast vast majority if not everyone else won't accept a return once it's been opened and used, unless it's faulty. Apple have stated this is not a fault so basically if you did not get this from Apple your stuck with it. For me it doesn't bother me atall not one bit, it's a great ipad in my opinion. But maybe for some it will bother them, but as I said if it wasn't bought from Apple, they have to live with it or sell it for a loss.

[@HIIMUsc]

i have the 12.9 M1 as well, and the blooming bothers me a lot in some movies or shows…. apart from that, iam really happy! i hope they improve the Mini-LED tech in a fast pace…

[@PatrickRambles]

I bought the 16GB one and it's clear to me now that it's an experiment. First time Mini LED, slowed down Thunderbolt ports, The M1 chip is in there probably because it was cheaper to produce more of those than creating a proprietary chip for the iPad. It's an amazing machine, but I feel that Apple manipulated us into believing that all that amazing hardware would be put to use after iPadOS15. We know now that this isn't the case.

[@HIIMUsc]

@@PatrickRambles well let's see what iPadOS 16 or further version of 15.X will bring... to me, i don't care about productivity cuz mine is pretty much used for multimedia only!

I think one of the worst things that happens is as you were waiting for your new iPad mini to be delivered to you in a couple of weeks, all this Internet hype and jelly donuts comes out. It really leaves you with a question mark? I’m not exactly happy to open some thing and then return it if I’m not happy. Since Apple is giving me 30 days I imagine I’ll have to wait and see if I even notice this. I was hoping the Mini would replace my 9.7 pro? Thanks Patrick for bringing up the issue in your video.

I had saved Ipad Mini 6th gen in my wishlist for three months. I was about to buy it today and was super excited as this was going to be my first Apple/Tablet purchase. When I checked in store, the Jelly Scrolling effect is really annoying and I have never seen this on any previous device that I have owned probably because I have only used LED display devices. Now either I need to go for ipad 9th gen or just go for Samsung S7 or something 🥲😔

I had it on my Samsung tab s6 in portrait mode from 2 years ago. It kinda threw me off, but I got used to it.

[@franzdrack9529]

60hz is not the problem here. My iPad Mini 5 runs on 60hz and has no jelly scrolling in portrait mode. Apple stating that this is "normal behaviour" is a joke when there is almost no other iPad with LCD that has this issue (apart from the iPad Air 4 it seems). But then again I use my iPad Mini 5 in landscape mode for 90% of the time where the ipad Mini 6 shows no jelly scrolling. Maybe it all comes down to for what you use the ipad for and in which orientation.

[@jackwilson5542]

It is problem with LCDs- the cheap and low quality ones that is.

I noticed Jelly Scrolling since 2013 from a Samsung Phone or Tablet, but to be honest I mostly forgot about it after a few minutes of noticing it, and for some reason I kinda enjoy having the Jelly scroll effect I dunno why, but probably nostalgia

[@ccarlin52]

I returned it. The screen gave me headaches with some mild vertigo, which I’ve never experienced before. Everything about the device was great, with the big exception of the screen. For $600, it shouldn’t be as prominent as it is.

Sad part is that Apple has already said that they won't fix it.

[@bulletsupremo1676]

That's what I'm worried about, I use my phone a lot for reading news and stuff to the point that I get double visions and naucious from doing so and my phone doesn't even do jelly scrolls. So it's a NO for now.

[@Lontokka]

It's weird how much it wobbles even when you don't scroll fast. And also how much it wobbles for such a small screen. If the jelly effect was like maybe half or a third of what it is, then I might be able to handle it. For me the only solution is that Apple changes it to refresh in landscape orientation instead of portrait. I think it would mitigate the jelly effect compared to what it is right now.

Exactly!

[@bulletsupremo1676]

I was really locking into the Mini 6 but the jelly scroll sich kind of broke it for me. This iPad is supposed to be my first Apple device and of course I was hoping for it to be an excellent experience if not perfect given the pretty price tag. Thing is how did other OEMs managed to avoid this hardware issue despite the lower price of their tablets? Think I'm just gonna keep my money till the mini gets updated again or the Air next year. Maybe Apple will finally move on from LCD displays because of this.

[@Lontokka]

I've heard people say that because iPad Mini 6 has the most narrow screen of all iPads, the effect is most visible on it compared to the others. It wouldn't have been as egregious if they'd changed the refresh orientation. Sadly I had to return mine despite loving everything else about it.

[@PatrickRambles]

I think this might be accurate. It has the highest pixel density so technically they would be more pixels per line to refresh...

[@bulletsupremo1676]

@@PatrickRambles Just got back from an electronics store and tried out the Mini and yes, the skewing is quite pronounced and it's kinda trippy😅. I also tried the reg ipad and the Air 4 to see if the reported jelly scrolling in their landscape modes is true, yep, it's there too but the Mini had it worst really. Don't know whether the heads-up about this issue helped me spot the flaw quite easily coz I already knew what and how to look for it (checked on the Air before and didn't notice it probably because I have never heard about jelly scrolling back then,) but in the case of Mini 6, it's easy to spot even if you never knew about the issue before hand.

It really isn't an issue on all 60hz panels.. and it's barely noticeable on a lot of other 60hz panels, to the point that people were making a big deal about it when they saw it on the Tab S5e (because everyone notices it when it gets bad). In reality some people won't notice it, but it isn't an issue in some older iPads, so I can still understand why some people are upset with it. Not saying it's a huge deal but it's definitely more noticeable this year

[@MisterNikkiMetal]

Just found your channel! Amazing work! Loved this video! So, I'm new to the whole Apple device thing. I have a windows PC, a Z Flip 3, google speakers, a Philips tv, Skullcandy Earbuds and I'm getting my first iPad...the mini 6gen! I don't really do the whole ecosystem thing with any tech I own. I never did. I get what I like regardless of weather it's meant to go together or not (unless it's an apple watch that I know won't sync to my android lol) I don't want to limit the tech I use and lock myself in to one company. If I have to press extra buttons to get things to connect and sync, then that's what I'll do. I don't need seamless connectivity 24/7. But I've finally had enough with Samsung budget tablets! The most god aweful devices on the face of this earth. The last Android 11 update destroyed it and made it sluggish and unusable. I'm giving it to my 4yr old neice because all it can do is KZbin and kids games!! I've gone through 3 in the past 5yrs alone! Terrible devices! I kept hearing about the jelly issue after I bought this(it's on its way to me still lol) and I was worried I bought a lemon! Seeing your video made me realize I made the right decision. Sorry for the long winded comment and a million edits lol. Insomnia has kept me up 🤣 Take it easy!

[@PatrickRambles]

Hey Nikki! Thanks for your comment. I'm a long time android user myself. I switched after the iPhone 5 and have used Samsung phones until 2020. When I got the iPad Pro 2020, I loved it so much and most of the apps I liked were not available on Android phones, so I switched back to iPhones. I was surprised at how far they had come since I "left Apple". The one think I did use even in my android years was a MacBook. So technically I am not fully in the Apple ecosystem, not because I had planned it but because the devices just work together so well. They reallly do a good job roping you in! I don't think you will mind the jelly scroll on the iPad mini since most if not all Android tabs have it too :)

I have the new mini since a few days now. It is noticable to me. Not a deal breaker at all to me, though. But in my opinion, apple should have put it the other way around like in the air. Because especially in the mini you do a lot of vertical scrolling in portrait. But who knows…? Maybe apple tried it like this in some mini prototype and judged it to be even worse in landscape than how it is now in portrait (which I could imagine is true, because the mini has the widest aspect ratio of all ipads).

[@marlotrot]

Fun fact: my iPad mini 5 has it in landscape and I didn’t noticed before those mini 6 reports, because I never scroll faster than 60hz allow me to still read. I mean, personally I would be more distracted by the „smudged“ text than the jelly effect when scrolling that fast. To the „returners“ I’d say, with all due respect, check your remaining budget of the month before you buy new tech. Than you don‘t have to search for reasons ;-)

Screen response time also plays important role, btw interesting fact, the budget non air non pro ipads have the best screen response time avging about 15-20ms black-white. This mini 6 is about 30+, and there are some 120hz pros that have 40ms. Really funny how they went for high refresh rate even though its actually half-useless without good response time. Atm using 9th gen ipad (iOS 15.6.1, waiting for jb), the jelly effect in landscape is noticeably less visible than 4th gen air i had before (that thing bent while sitting in the backpack lol). And on the 13 pro its just non existent, the oled panel is fast af

I tried scrolling real slow a bunch of times on many diiferent apps with my mini 6 but I dont see any wobble at all.

Well that's great then 😁

Really sad to hear so many people blow this issue out of proportion! Really great explanation of the phenomenon! Awesome video Patrick! 😁

I still haven’t noticed it.

[@PatrickRambles]

I have a little but I just genuinely don't care 🤷‍♂️. Like you said, this thing is the perfect toilet tablet and nobody should care about toilet jelly.

[@danielfrappier3378]

I have a simple question: I can't see it on my 5 years old cheapest iPad so why can I see not on the mini? It as a cheaper display than the previous cheapest model?

[@PatrickRambles]

Why it's more visible on the new mini is unclear.

[@Scotia__]

I believe it's more apparent nowadays due to higher screen pixel density; more pixels to refresh than older screens

[@PatrickRambles]

Very interesting

This jelly scrolling is definitely not good for people like me who get motion sickness. I have two iPad Pros that I use for hours at a time with no issues. Less than ten minutes with my new iPad mini 6 and I was nauseous and dizzy. I will try using it in landscape mode because I don’t want to return it. I love everything else about it, but if I feel sick every time… Thank you for the great video!

[@PatrickRambles]

Thanks Michelle, yes it's a very peculiar thing. Some barely see it and other can't stand it to a point where it becomes unusable. I guess it depends on how our brains are wired. Odd, isn't it?

[@Ohkeh640]

I’m getting mine today, or u could give me yours 😂 lol jk enjoy the baby

[@mrndc]

Tried the iPad mini in the store and, assuming that the jelly scroll is on all of the iPad mini devices, then I don't see it at all. Even when trying to see it very up close, I can't notice it.

[@PatrickRambles]

Weird

[@aimanhaikal1327]

So i need to test it on the store before decide to buy it or not...

[@mrndc]

Nah bro I went to the store a second time and I definitely saw it 😂😂😂 I cancelled my order and I got myself an iPad Pro instead

[@superpoon16]

Thank you. i think this shouldn’t happen when apple charge for the device this much even the old ipad mini2 i’m been using 5 yrs doesn’t have noticeable the issue. Disappoint not worth the wait.

[@hugddoo]

Does the Jelly scroll issue still persist?

[@PatrickRambles]

Yes, it's a hardware issue so it won't go away. But I feel the same way about it, I hardly notice it.

[@bruchino]

Totally agree. I didn’t notice until I heard about it. Such a first world problem.. I love my new mini, I’ve waited for this update for years and I’m glad Apple finally made it instead of killing the mini line.

[@PatrickRambles]

Same.

[@OppenChad]

it's a problem because its so damn expensive.

Great opinion, in the reality, you won't be scrolling the screen very very fast

[@ericstrohl2952]

Some of the reviews for this don't make sense. This kzbin.infoUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA works as well as any power strip I've used. Plug in what you need, be sensible about it & keep it movin' The construction is plastic but it's a sturdy piece. It has a single toggle switch & the swivel jacks are useful as well. Plugged in next to Tripp Lite Isobar takes some of these reviews with a pinch of sumthin' - does what it says & functions properly.Had for about a month. Perfect no complaints will update if anything changes.

[@realMDizzy]

I must be either blind or lucky. I have an eye for this and would be slightly bothered by it but I’m trying to reproduce it to no avail. I’m keeping mine!!!

[@PatrickRambles]

Lucky 👌

[@BlueWhite_Phoenix]

i was going to buy it to replace my fire but now im not interested anymore 🤷🏽‍♂️ not for a price thats 11 times more expensive but would bother me with the display; unfortunately i can clearly see the effect

[@PatrickRambles]

Do you mean you can see it in the video? It's slowed down by a lot so you can see it very clearly.

[@Scotia__]

I'd suggest trying it out in person if possible, to see if it bothers you IRL in real speed

[@BlueWhite_Phoenix]

i mean in person; was hyped and waited for it. now i dont see myself buying it for 550€ 😢

Can I ask you a question? Will the 64gb version of iPad mini 6 have a lack of performance compared to the 256gb version of iPad mini 6?

[@PatrickRambles]

I don't see why it would. I mean if storage is chock full then performance will suffer, but I don't think there is any other difference.

[@ljacobs357]

I played with the Mini 6 at Best Buy and the jelly scrolling effect was obvious and bothersome to my aging eyes before I learned about it. Also, the scaling on the home screen and generally with the the UI is too small. My Samsung Galaxy S7 doesn't have these issue nor my other Samsung devices. Apple should not have released this product knowing it had this issue.

[@PatrickRambles]

I Agee with you on the scaling issue. That is however fixable through iPad OS and I hope they will. Especially in portrait mode, the UI is not optimal.

[@smartphonefan5226]

If I remember correctly, the Galaxy Tab S7 also has a display issue. When the brightness is down to 0%, you can see the screen flickering.

[@wakinguptothetruth.2566]

[@hadouken2123]

If that had been the official reply from apple THEN i might have returned it ;-)

[@gloryg3943]

I tried it at the Apple store as I was picking up iphone 13. The jelly scroll made me frustrated. I did not even know what "jelly scroll" was back then. I just thought it was bad because mini6 had 60hz. But I later found out that it was not because of 60hz but something called jelly screen. What is more important is that we tend to notice lesser on smaller screens like smartphones OR mini, but we can notice it. That means it is really really, flawed. If I were to use it for more than 30 minutes, I thought I might get dizzy as if I am in a car sick and almost throw up. I am going for an iPad Pro 11"

[@Adamhandle]

I am on exact same boat. Mine one was pretty bad and I thought maybe it is caused by 60 hz screen. After 2 days of use, I feel dizzy and nausea. The I returned it. Later on I found out this jelly scroll thing all over the internet.

[@wakinguptothetruth.2566]

Ipad pro 11 suffers from the jelly screen issue not as much but it's definitely there on it.

@@wakinguptothetruth.2566 i tried it at the apple store, mini6 pro11 and pro12.9. Yeah it might, but I did not feel anything. On the other hand mini6? The worst. It is handy with a small screen so I wanted to buy it as well. But no. Never.
