Apple iPad Air is a completely amazing tablet released some years ago, in 2013, with a really big 9.7-inches touch-screen, a high-tech Dual-Core processor clocking at 1400 MHz, and 2 cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back camera and a 1.2 megapixels front facing camera.
Apple has made an amazing design job making this tablet weight just 16.86 ounces. This tablet is quite a compact device, considering it features a 9.7 inches screen and it has just 9.45 inches long and 6.67" wide. This tablet has a beautiful design, with a thickness of just 0.3 inches. This tablet is offerred in three color options, black, gray and white. Regarding its body materials, the iPad Air is majorly manufactured with Aluminium, giving this device a top level design and better resistance.
Apple decided to build this portable tablet with a Apple A7 chip, packing an extremely fast 64 bits Dual-Core processing unit speeding at 1400 MHz with only 1 GB RAM which is a little bit low considering this tablet's impressive CPU. Graphic calculations often eats lots of processing power, so this device uses an extra PowerVR G6430 GPU clocking at 600 MHz to unload the processor. This tablet counts with an excellent 64 GB internal storage and even though it doesn't come with a slot for an SD memory card, it is still enough to store tons of apps, games, pictures and videos without worrying about filling the tablet.
The Apple iPad Air includes a very good 9.7-inches screen with a 1536 x 2048 resolution, providing this device with a very nice graphical experience. Its screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.
The Apple iPad Air is equipped with two cameras, a 5 MP back-facing camera and a 1.2 megapixels front facing camera. It can also capture videos in 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 frames per second. The camera also features lots of great characteristics like digital image stabilization, auto-focus, HDR mode, face detection shooting, time lapse video and geo tagging.
The Apple iPad Air packs a 8820 mAh inmense Li-Polymer non-removable battery that can keep this tablet device running for many hours and even reach the end of the day without charging it. An issue to take into account is that this tablet's battery is not removable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it begins to live shorter, even though with this big battery you will probably replace this device before that happens.
This tablet provides Wi-Fi connectivity (which it can provide to other devices acting as a mobile hotspot), 4G LTE high performance connection type and 3G fast connection type, using HSPA, EV-DO A, EV-DO B and EDGE technologies. This tablet uses a Nano SIM card for GSM networks.
This tablet also comes with a few nice characteristics like Bluetooth (for communication with other bluetooth devices, computers and accessories) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.
Apple offers this tablet for 386 dollars, which is rather expensive for a tablet this level. It doesn't matter whether you need a tablet to mostly use social networks, are looking for a gaming tablet, love photography or want a tablet for work, this tablet device is probably a good choice for you. If you buy this tablet you will also receive USB Power Adapter and Lightning to USB Cable.
