Say Hi to Ipad Air and Ipad Mini 2 !!

People have been waiting for this a long time. Now the cover has been removed and behold- Introducing Ipad Air and the much improved Ipad mini with a Retina Display.

The Ipad air is the official name of the Ipad 5. Guess they found the numbering going upto 5 a little too……. regular. As for the internals they have been upgraded as well. Said to sport the same internals as the Iphone 5s. An apple A7 chipset along with a M7 co-processor. For those of you who don’t know what that is, The A7 is the main processor which handles all the task which is supported by the M7. The M7 handles all the motion sensing, gaming tasks, etc.

They don’t usually go the A7 as it will be heavily loaded and all other processes come to a stop much like a spinal cord and brain in terms of emergency(Woah!! What a comparison.)  As for the price of the Ipad air, the 16GB version will be the same $299.  Now for the Ipad mini 2. The mini has the same screen size( at 7.9″) but it is just that the resolution is now increased to 1536 x 2048 pixels which is about 324ppi.

There are two versions, One Wifi and One Wifi+Cellular. The New Ipad Mini wont be having the Touch ID which is not rather disappointing as we are not used to it yet.

Lets see where Apple heads with the new Ipads.
