iPad Air has thinner bezels on the sides of the display and a narrower width overall. But the size of the display stayed the same. It's a subtle change, but it makes a dramatic difference. You see it the moment the screen comes to life. The beautiful display is more prominent than ever. And your attention is on what matters: your content.

iPad Air is astonishingly thin and light. Through a series of refinements, apple was able to drop close to a quarter of the volume of the previous-generation iPad. Yet from the moment you pick it up, you'll notice how durable it feels. Elegant unibody construction strengthens and simplifies the enclosure. Apple took everything they learned about making unibody devices and refined the process to be even more material-efficient and exact.

The software also works intelligently with the new display. Using a touch-rejection algorithm, iPad Air recognizes if your thumb is simply resting on the display while you're holding it or if you're intentionally interacting with the Multi-Touch screen. It's a great example of how Apple hardware and software are designed to work together to give you the best experience possible.

A7 brings 64-bit desktop-class architecture to iPad, which means iPad Air speaks the language of the most advanced computing designs available. The A7 chip makes iPad Air up to 2x faster than the previous generation in both CPU and graphics performance. So it delivers incredible power and performance in a one-pound device.
