The iPad Air is an updated version of the original 9.7-inch iPad adapting the form factor of last year’s iPad mini, with a smaller bezel and diamond cut chamfered edges. At 1 pound, Apple is calling it the “lightest full sized tablet in the world.”
The device is powered by an A7 chip that Apple claims is 8x faster with 72 times better graphics.
Aside from its high-res screen the Retina iPad mini comes with the same A7 chip, 5-megapixel iSight camera and FaceTime HD camera as the iPad Air. – Rappler.com
