Quote:Apple surprised everyone today by unveiling two new iPad models that were believed to be announced later this month during the company's forthcoming "It's show time" spring event.
All-new 10.5-inch iPad Air and 7.9-inch iPad mini were announced today by Apple with high-end features and top-notch performance as the company aims to offer iPad users more diversity and compatibility with latest devices. The all-new 7.9-inch iPad mini is the first of its kind to offer support for the Apple Pencil, but also comes with an advanced Retina display and the A12 Bionic chip.
The new iPad Air also comes with support for the Apple Pencil since it borrows the design of last year's iPad Pro models with 20% larger, edge-to-edge Retina display featuring True Tone technology. In addition, the 10.5-inch iPad Air promises 70% boost in performance, great Wi-Fi performance, Gigabit‑class LTE connectivity, and built-in eSIM technology.
"iPad continues to provide magical new experiences for a growing range of uses where it is the absolute best device, from playing games in augmented reality to note-taking and drawing with Apple Pencil, from streaming HD movies and editing 4K films to learning to develop apps with Swift Playgrounds," said Phil Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing.
