Apple has released a new version of its entry-level iPad, which it simply refers to as “the iPad.” Apple is ditching the familiar design in favor of rounded edges and a home button. Instead, the iPad resembles the iPad Air and iPad Pro. However, there are some concessions.
The new iPad starts at $449, which is significantly higher than the previous model’s price of $329. However, you get a larger 10.9-inch display with a resolution of 23601640, improved specs, and compatibility with some new accessories. It is available in four different colors: blue, pink, yellow, and silver.
Let’s start with the details. Apple is updating the device’s system-on-a-chip and replacing the A13 with an A14 Bionic. It’s the same system-on-chip found in the iPhone 12 lineup.
The device has two cameras: the front-facing camera is a 12MP ultrawide camera that is now integrated into the landscape edge of the iPad, making you look better when making video calls in landscape mode.
Another 12MP camera is located on the device’s back. Touch ID is still supported on this iPad. You must rest your finger on it in order to use it.
