About This iPad

The iPad Air 2 was created with an “Air” feel in mind when compared to the size of the traditional iPad versions – it was designed 20% thinner and 28% lighter than the iPad 3rd and 4th generations. Having a look at iPad Air 2 specs, this model has a thinner housing, an antireflective screen (said to reduce glare by 56%), a faster processor and twice the RAM, better cameras, and faster Wi-Fi. iPad is packed in thin white and gold colored, white and silver colored, or black and medium toned “Space Gray” cases. Even though it was made smaller, it was still able to carry out both creative and consumption tasks and its “Air” feel was an advantage. Apple was able not to sacrifice any of the functionality in the device previously seen from the original iPad line-up.
