What's under the hood for the iPad Air 4?
Apple always had their iPhones that would boast the year’s new chipset, but this time around the iPad Air 4 was the device that was released with the newest chipset as the iPhones weren’t a part of the event. iPad Air 4 is being shipped with a 5nm A14 Bionic chipset and this is the most powerful Apple chipset to date, making it the fastest Apple tablet out there. The chipset has a 16-core neural engine which boosts the capability of machine-learning and gets the device a step closer to Apple’s work towards Artificial Intelligence.
iPad Air 4 also boasts a 30% increase in performance graphics wise. The battery capacity hasn’t been revealed, but Apple is never known to reveal these details, it is thanks to the inquisitive fans that the general public is made aware of the battery capacity and hopefully the case will same this year too.
