Apple just announced the new iPad mini 7, which comes with an upgraded processor, and both Apple Pencil Pro and Apple Intelligence support. But if you don't care about all that, consider an iPad mini 6.

The burlier processor is key to Apple's claim that it's newest iPad mini is 'built for Apple Intelligence,' though it comes with a caveat.

In terms of design, the iPad Mini 7 is nearly identical to the previous iPad Mini 6, featuring an 8.3-inch Liquid Retina Display with True Tone and 500 nits of brightness. Unfortunately, Apple continues to offer only a 60Hz refresh rate.
