Apple, earlier today, announced its newest entry to its iPad lineup – the iPad Air.
At 7.5mm thin, the iPad Air is the thinnest tablet on the market. It weighs exactly 1 pound and is 28% lighter than the previous iPad. The screen size remains 9.7 inches.
It runs Apple’s iOS 7 and without doubt, it’s one of the most beautiful mobile operating systems out there.
Like the iPhone 5S, The iPad Air is powered by Apple’s 64-bit A7 processor as well as an M7 processor for motion tracking. This makes it twice as fast as the previous iPad.
Battery life on the iPad Air is the same as all iPads and stands at 10 hours.

For faster WiFi connectivity, Apple has implemented the MiMo technology as well as combining two WiFi antennas. This means the IPad Air is two times faster on a WiFi connection than the previous iPad. More LTE bands have also been added so you can connect to a wider range of LTE networks when you buy an iPad Air with WiFi and cellular connectivity.
The iPad Air comes in Space Gray and Silver. Pricing starts at $499 for a 16GB WiFi only model and $629 for a 16GB WiFi + cellular model. You can see full pricing details on Apple’s website.
