As for the iPad Air display, has a stunning Retina display is exactly the same. So your content fills your view more than ever. With a 2048-by-1536 resolution and over 3.1 million pixels, photos and videos pop with detail and text looks razor sharp. Combined with A7 Chip, that also supports OpenGL ES version 3.0, enabling detailed graphics and visual effects once possible only on desktop computers and game consoles. The A7 chip features 64-bit architecture, opening the door for even more robust and powerful apps. Another thing to see is the M7 coprocessor is designed to measure the motion of iPad Air by collecting data from the gyroscope, accelerometer, and compass. The M7 uses less power which results to great battery life.
It also features a 5-megapixel iSight camera and a FaceTime HD camera with an improved sensor for better video calls. Dual microphones improve audio and suppress background noise for video recording, FaceTime calls, and voice recognition when using Siri.
To make the iPad Air lighter and thinner (by 1 pound light and 7.5 millimeters thin), they reduce 24 percent in overall volume (by shaving fractions of millimeters off many components such as Glass, Touch sensor, Retina display, Battery and Unibody).
