iPad Air 2 pictures reveal a powerful dedicated processor and Touch ID
Ahead of Apple's upcoming event on
October 16, where it is widely believed to launch the new
iPad Air, new photos have appeared online that point to the
iPad Air 2 being much more powerful than its predecessor.
Photos republished by apple.club.tw apparently shows the logic board of the new
iPad Air. What's exciting about this leaked photo is that on closer inspection it shows that the
iPad Air 2 will feature the
A8X processor.
Meanwhile, another snapped component appears to show off a space for a
Touch ID home button, something we're expecting to see in the new tablet.
Last year's
iPad Air used
Apple's A7 processor, which was the same processor used in the
iPhone 5S. With the
iPhone 6 and
iPhone 6 Plus using Apple's new
A8 processor, it was widely expected that the new
iPad Air 2 would feature the
A8 as well.
Increased processing power
Including an
A8X chip rather than the
A8 chip found in the
iPhone 6 marks Apple's return to creating specialised versions of its processors for its tablets.
Both the
iPad 3 and
iPad 4 had their own more powerful variants of the
iPhone A5 and
A6 chips (the
A5X and
A6X respectively).
These variants included much more graphics capabilities for better gaming and smoother experience when launching apps and using the
iOS operating system.
If the
iPad Air 2 is coming with an
A8X variant, we should see another leap in graphics power over the already impressive
iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.
These leaks follow another set of recent photographs which show that the
iPad Air 2 could be shipping with a boosted
2GB of RAM. If both these leaks are accurate then we could see a
much more powerful iPad Air on October 16.
