When will the iPad Air 4 be released? This question was supposed to be answered at the "Hi, Speed" event. At least, that's what some observers suggested. But Apple remained silent – now a leaker is back.
Apple unveiled the brand-new iPad Air 4 at its "Time Flies" event in September. According to the company, the device will be released in October. However, the exact date is unknown. Some expected Apple to reveal details during today's keynote – but nothing. The iPad Air 4 remains unmentioned. Now, Jon Prosser, a leaker with a good success rate, has revealed reported back. He now claims on Twitter that Apple will accept pre-orders for the iPad Air 4 from October 16th. Delivery - i.e. the start of sales - is scheduled to begin on October 23rd. If this information is correct, the iPad Air 4 would launch at the same time as the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro.
iPad Air 4: The September Highlight
The iPad Air 4 has a completely new design - based on the iPad Pro - and offers a high-resolution 10.9-inch display. As already suspected, the Touch ID sensor has been placed in the standby button. The new iPad Air has a "huge leap in performance" thanks to the latest A14 Bionic processor. The CPU is around 40% faster, the GPU performance has been improved by 30% and the performance in machine learning has also increased thanks to a new neural engine. It also has True Tone and an anti-reflective coating as well as USB-C. The speaker system has also been revised as part of the update. The Device supports the second generation Apple Pencil and the brand new Magic Keyboard. It is available in 64 GB and 256 GB storage versions as a WiFi or WiFi-Cellular model. The price of the device starts at 632.60 euros.
