I’ve tried to setup my iPad 4 mini to the same as my iPhone 8+ via the cloud, but the software versions are different, can I get vers 16.7.2 on my iPad?
Bugga, thanks though, saved me a lot of messing around.

The iPad mini4 is capable of update to iPadOS 15.8; the mini4 does not support iPadOS16 or later.
For information, here is a list of the highest version of iOS supported by older models of iPad (for simplicity - “generations” are shortened to a number) that are restricted in their ability to be updated:
32-bit devices (obsolete)
iPad1 - iOS 5.1.1
iPad2, iPad3 and iPad mini1 - iOS 9.3.5 (WiFi Only models), iOS 9.3.6 (WiFi & Cellular)
iPad4 - iOS 10.3.3 (WiFi Only), iOS 10.3.4 (WiFi & Cellular)
64-bit devices
iPad Air1, iPad mini2 and iPad mini3 - iOS 12.5.7
iPad Air2, iPad mini4 - iPadOS 15.8
iPad5, iPad Pro (9.7"/12.9" first generation) - iPadOS 16.7.2
Newer models are all able to be updated to the current version - iPadOS 17.1
An iPad Air 2 or iPad mini 4 isn't capable of 16 or above; they require an A9 or better CPU.
