Apple iPad Air 2 Specs and Features

Apple had just unveiled iPad Air 2 the more thinly, more powerful, feature packed that its predecessor at just 6.1mm with A8x chip that comes with iOS 8 out of the box which means it will have Apple Pay, TouchID finger print sensor and has more vivid colors and greater contrast.

The camera has been updated to 8MP iSight camera with advanced optics, an improved sensor and a powerful Apple-designed image signal processor. There are new features like panorama, time-lapse videos, slo-mo, and burst and timer modes. The front-facing FaceTime HD Camera has been fitted with larger pixels.

A closer look at the iPad Air 2:

The iPad Air are meant to be thin yet performance wise should be powerful and Apple did the same thing by fusing several layers of the display to make one panel. By doing so, this made the iPad Air 2 18% thinners and lighter by almost quarter of a kilogram.

The display of the iPad Air 2 stays at the same resolution as the previous one at 2048 x 1536 pixels resulting in a pixel density of 264 ppi. It is now fully laminated though and has an anti-reflective coating which is nice actually.

iPad Air 2 comes with a customized version of the iPhone 6 chip called A8X. A dual core processor but with 64-bit architecture that developers can take advantage of in maximizing the capabilities of their apps.

In order to monitor the sensor including a new barometer in minimizing the load of the main chip the Apple used the M8 co-processor. This results in better power management that can last up to 10 hours of usual usage.

Wireless connectivity had been improved for the iPad Air 2. It has MIMO, 802.11ac and dual band Wi-Fi support while more LTE bands are supported.
