With iPad, we’ve always had a somewhat paradoxical goal: to create a device that’s immensely powerful, yet so thin and light you almost forget it’s there. A device that helps you do amazing things, without ever getting in your way. iPad Air 2 is all that. And then some.
Not only is iPad Air 2 thinner, it’s also a lot more powerful. We designed a chip, the A8X, that delivers substantially better CPU and graphics performance than its predecessor. In fact, with its 64-bit desktop-class architecture, iPad Air 2 is as powerful as many personal computers. It’s power efficient too, with a 10-hour battery life that lets you work, play, surf and shop all day long.
iPad Air 2 comes with our breakthrough Touch ID technology. It gives you an unprecedented level of security because it uses nature’s most perfect password: your fingerprint. So with just one touch, you can instantly unlock your iPad Air 2. But Touch ID goes beyond that. You can also make secure purchases in iTunes, iBooks and the App Store. And with Apple Pay, you can unlock an entire world of online shopping that’s fast, convenient and secure.
iPad Air 2 comes with powerful apps for the things you do every day, like surfing the web, checking email, editing movies and photos, writing reports and reading books. Use your favourite apps, such as Microsoft Word or Excel. And there are hundreds of thousands of apps on the App Store, designed specifically for the large Retina display (instead of being stretched-out phone apps). So whether it’s photography, gaming, travelling or managing your finances, you’ll find an app that will help you do it better.
Wi-Fi on iPad Air 2 is fast — more than twice as fast as the previous generation — so downloading films and streaming videos take less time. iPad Air 2 features advanced 802.11ac Wi-Fi technology and MIMO support. And the Wi-Fi + Cellular model is equipped with faster, more advanced 3G LTE technology. You can choose a plan quickly and easily in over 100 countries and territories straight from your device. So you can make fast connections, even when you’re on the go.
The iSight camera in iPad Air 2 delivers advanced optics, an improved sensor and a powerful Apple-designed image signal processor. There are features like panorama, time-lapse videos, slo-mo, and burst and timer modes. The front-facing FaceTime HD camera has been redesigned too, with an improved sensor and larger pixels for even better low-light performance. The upshot? All your photos and videos — and video calls and selfies — look incredible. Once you’ve captured a photo or video, there’s a lot more you can do — use third-party apps to get even more creative.
Store all your photos, videos and other files in your iPad Air 2 or use iCloud to securely access your data from anywhere. You can even use other applications, such as Dropbox or Google Drive. Share your documents in a single tap with AirDrop — no setup needed.
Keeping your devices and Apple ID secure is essential to protecting your personal information — like photos, documents, messages, email, and so much more. iOS 8 advances security by strengthening the passcode that protects your devices, and by making it harder for others to get unauthorized access to your Apple ID account. These new security features are easy for you to use. But they make it much harder for anyone else to access your personal information.
Apple doesn’t build a profile based on your email content or web browsing habits to sell to advertisers. We don’t “monetize” the information you store on your iPhone or in iCloud. And we don’t read your email or your messages to get information to market to you. Our software and services are designed to make our devices better. Plain and simple.
Founded in 1976 in Cupertino, California, Apple has since become the most valuable company in the world with its revolutionary products and peerless design. Probably its most ubiquitous and well-known product is the iPhone, along with the iPad, Mac computers, and iTunes.
