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.
