iPad Air 2

Change is in the Air.

At just 6.1mm, the Apple iPad Air 2 is a robust thin & light tablet capable of supporting many needs. It has a re-engineered, fully laminated 9.7" Retina display that makes watching video and navigating apps a breeze. The revolutionary Touch ID provides high level of security and lets you quickly unlock your iPad Air 2 or make secure purchase with your fingerprint. Inside, a powerful A8X chip with 64-bit architecture offers you plenty of power. A new iSight camera lets you capture stills or videos with more brilliance, and an improved FaceTime HD camera make it easy to chat with friends and hold meetings. Find the software you need for gaming, entertainment, productivity and social connections right away in built-in App Store.

So capable, you won't want to put it down.

So thin and light, you won't have to.

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 just a thinner display. A better display.

To create the astonishingly thin silhouette of iPad Air 2, we started by redesigning the Retina display, fusing what had been three layers into one. Not only did this make the display thinner, it made it better, with more vivid colors and greater contrast. Then we added an antireflective coating, giving iPad Air 2 the least reflective display of any tablet in the world.

Massive power. In its most minimal form.

Not only is iPad Air 2 thinner, it’s also a lot more powerful. We designed a new 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 long lasting battery life that keeps up with your work and play¹.

Security based on one-of-a-kind design: your ?ngerprint.

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.

Two amazing cameras. Cleverly disguised as an iPad.

The new iSight camera is our best iPad camera yet, with advanced optics, an improved sensor, and a powerful Apple-designed image signal processor. There are new 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.

Faster wireless. Good things come to those who don't wait.

Wi-Fi on iPad Air 2 is fast — more than twice as fast as the previous generation — so downloading movies and streaming videos take less time. And the Wi-Fi + Cellular model is equipped with faster, more advanced LTE technology.² In addition, the cellular model lets you choose from a variety of carriers and flexible short-term plans. So you can make fast connections, even when you're on the go.

Apps designed for iPad.

And everything you want to do with it.

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. And there are hundreds of thousands of apps on the App Store, designed specifically for the large Retina display (instead of stretched-out phone apps). So whether it's photography, gaming, traveling, or managing your finances, you'll find an app that will help you do it better.

Notes:

1. Battery life varies by use and configuration; see www.apple.com/batteries for more information.

2. Compared with previous generation. Data plan sold separately. LTE is available in select markets and through select carriers. Speeds are based on theoretical throughput and vary based on site conditions. For details on LTE support, contact your carrier and see www.apple.com/ipad/LTE.
