Now that the new owners of iPad mini 6 they’ve had a few days to try out the latest redesigned version of Apple’s tablet, some users have noticed a problem called “gelatinous sliding” while viewing the screen in portrait mode.
The term “jelly scroll” refers to a noticeable effect when scrolling vertically on text-based content. So a web page or document where every line of text seems to wobble. The effect makes one side of the display appear to respond faster than the other when a finger drags to scroll the page. The movement resembles the wobbly effect of a jelly when it is shaken.
As MacRumors reports, several users have noticed the problem which seems to affect the new tablets to varying degrees. Some iPad mini 6 owners claim to have noticed the effect despite ignoring similar existing reports; while others began to notice it only after being informed that it was a problem other people have encountered.
Furthermore, some users, after noticing it, claim that they are unable to “not see it”, saying that the effect becomes irritating and it can even induce eye fatigue. The issue was brought to increased attention in a tweet from Dieter Bohn of The Verge, who demonstrated the effect in a slow-motion video.
MacRumors confirmed that the effect can be seen by different people on the same 6th generation iPad mini unit. He also claimed that the problem was evident on all models of the iPad mini 6 on display at a local Apple Store in the UK. The issue was not reproducible by placing the tablet horizontally, which indicates that it is a vertical refresh issue.
It is currently unclear whether this is a hardware issue that only affects a certain batch of iPad mini drives, a more prevalent hardware issue, or something that could be fixed with a software update. The newspaper has reached out to Apple for comment, but the company has not yet responded.
