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. Not Only is iPad Air 2 thinner, but 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 a 10-hour battery life that lets you work, play, surf, and shop all day long.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. Moreover, 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.iOS 12 is the most advanced mobile OS ever, with features that make iPad Air 2 even more indispensable. Continuity lets you start a project on one device and finish it on another. Family Sharing lets up to six people in your family share movies, books, music, and apps. With iCloud Drive, you can safely store any document and access it from any device. Every feature in iOS 12 is designed to work seamlessly with iPad Air 2.iPad Air 2 (gold) features a crystal-clear 9.7" Retina display (diagonal)Touch ID fingerprint sensorA8X chip8MP iSight cameraFaceTime HD camera802.11ac Wi-Fi with MIMOApple iPad Air tablet supports up to 10 hours of battery life
