Apple Introduces New 10.2-inch iPad

This new model has increased the screen size, although it also leaves us with a series of improvements at a technical level, so there are new features that we must take into account.

Range renewal

This new iPad makes use of a 10.2-inch Retina Display LCD screen. It is a screen just 0.5 inches larger than last year, but it has been significantly improved, as the company itself says. One of the great novelties in this regard is that there is support for the Apple Pencil, which will expand its possibilities of use.

On the other hand, it comes with a Smart Connector, thanks to which the possibility of connecting to an Apple Smart Keyboard Folio is offered. The operating system is not a surprise, since it is iPadOS, which Apple itself officially presented at WWDC this year. It seeks to take advantage of the tablet in this way in the best way. Features such as multi-window apps and desktop features are exploited. These functions were present in the Pro models.

For the processor of this new iPad, the firm makes use of the Apple A10. A proprietary processor that will provide this model with great power and a smooth use experience at all times. It also comes with Touch ID to be able to unlock it, as the firm itself has announced.

Price and launch

The reservation of this new Apple iPad is already possible from today on the official website of the company. The launch will take place on September 30 officially. So the wait in this regard is going to be quite short for users.

Pricing starts at $ 329 for the model that only has WiFi. While the model with WiFi and LTE will cost $ 549, prices confirmed by the company at the presentation event. Although the price could vary depending on the store. In addition, there is a special offer, from the educational plan, which allows you to obtain it at a price of $ 298.
