Despite the fact that there were more question marks hanging over this year's September Apple Event, two things were more or less clear - we will see the presentation of the Apple Watch Series 6, together with the new iPad Air 4th generation. It turns out that these speculations were indeed true, as a few minutes ago we actually got to see the new iPad Air unveiled. You must be interested in what all this new iPad Air brings, what you can look forward to, and also more information. You can find all the necessary information below.
Display
The presentation of the new iPad Air was started by the CEO of Apple Tim Cook himself with the words that the new iPad Air has received a complete redesign. We definitely have to admit that the product has moved several levels forward in terms of design. The Apple tablet now offers a full-screen display with a 10,9" diagonal, a more angular appearance and boasts a sophisticated Liquid Retina display with a resolution of 2360×1640 and 3,8 million pixels. The display continues to offer great features such as Full Lamination, P3 wide color, True Tone, anti-reflective layer and is thus an identical panel that we would find in the iPad Pro. A huge change is the new generation Touch ID fingerprint sensor, which has moved from the removed Home Button to the top power button.
The best mobile chip and first-class performance
The newly introduced iPad Air comes with the best chip from the apple company's workshop, the Apple A14 Bionic. For the first time ever since the arrival of the iPhone 4S, the newest chip gets into the tablet before the iPhone. This chip boasts a 5nm manufacturing process, which we would find really hard to find in the competition. The processor consists of 11,8 billion transistors. In addition, the chip itself continues to advance in performance and consumes less power. Specifically, it offers 6 cores, with 4 of them being powerful cores and the other two being even super-powerful cores. The tablet offers twice the graphics performance and can handle 4K video editing without a single problem. When we compare the chip with the previous version A13 Bionic, we get 40 percent more performance and 30 percent more graphics performance. The A14 Bionic processor also includes a more sophisticated Neural Engine for working with augmented reality and artificial intelligence. The new one is a sixteen-core chip.
The developers themselves have commented on the new iPad Air, and they are genuinely excited about the product. According to them, it is absolutely amazing what a new apple tablet can do, and many times they would not even think that a "normal" tablet would be capable of such a thing.
The pleas have been heard: The switch to USB-C and the Apple Pencil
Apple has opted for its own Lightning port for its mobile products (except for the iPad Pro). However, Apple users themselves have been calling for a switch to USB-C for a long time. This is undoubtedly a more widespread port, which allows the user to use a much wider range of different accessories. Following the example of its more powerful Pro sibling, the iPad Air will begin to support the second-generation Apple Pencil stylus, which pairs with the product using a magnet on the side.
Availability
The just-announced iPad Air will hit the market as early as next month and will cost $599 in the basic user version. Apple also cares about the environment with this product. The apple tablet is made of 100% recyclable aluminum.
How will touch ID be used on the new aire when there will be a leather case. ?
and we will hope that the news will not be bent like cucumbers as in the past
What's the advantage of the $200 more expensive iPad Pro after today? A 0.1 inch larger screen and a wide-angle camera with Lidar? That is all?
120Hz display, higher brightness, 128GB basic capacity, Face ID, *higher performance? I don't think the A14 should be more powerful than the A12Z. I'm also guessing that the new Air will only have 4GB and not 6GB of RAM.
I wonder what such a meaningless sentence like ...p3 wide color means... Like wide color? How wide? Does the editor have any information? And also editing 4K videos… but what 4K videos?
