Apple iPad Air 2 Buyer's Guide

Apple released the 2nd generation iPad Air in October 2014. This model arrived with iOS 8, as well as improvements in several key areas. When compared to the 1st generation iPad Air, the iPad Air 2 was thinner and lighter and offered better CPU and graphics performance. The iPad Air 2 is powered by the Apple A8X chip, and it weighs 0.96-pounds and is 6.1mm thick. The iPad Air 2 display is 9.7” and it has a resolution of 2048 x 1536. This display was also fully laminated and featured an anti-reflective coating, which are two features that weren’t available on the previous-generation iPad Air. Other highlights include up to 128GB of storage space, an 8MP wide camera with Auto HDR for photos on the back, a Lightning connector for charging, and Touch ID for device security.
