So, beneath the two high-performance cores, Apple slid in two high-efficiency cores. The Apple A10 Fusion system-on-a-chip (SoC) in the 2018 iPad is about 1.5x as fast as the Apple A9 in the 2017 iPad.Ī10 Fusion came about because Apple was pushing it's high-performance silicon so far, so fast, it was starting to leave a gap underneath. The LTE networking, if you choose that option, is also twice as fast as before. Even if it does make it tough to color-match multiple Apple products across the line. Where the 2017 model came in a champagne gold similar to the one Apple's been using since iPhone 5s, the 2018 gold is much closer to iPhone 8 - not rose so much as blushing copper. There are a few minor differences between this year's iPad and last.

Touch ID on the front is also the same, first generation sensor as last year, not the faster second-generation sensor found on the iPads Pro and modern iPhones. But it's not for anyone who takes photography seriously. Also, taking and making FaceTime video calls. That includes taking everyday photos in well-lit environments, scanning documents to digitize, and capturing image and videos for family or school projects. It'll probably be fine for occasional, casual use, including use in classrooms. It's not modern, and it's certainly not great.

That means 8 megapixels, 1080p video out back and 1.2 megapixels, 720p video up front.
The camera optics are the same as well, still in line with the Air Pad Air, original 12.9-inch iPad Pro, or iPhone 6. And if something new is coming - something more iPhone X like - it won't start with this iPad. It's the design language that started with iPod Touch, moved to iPad mini and iPad Air, and settled on iPad Pro. Same big, plastic window on the top back of the LTE version. Same lack of a mute switch / rotation-lock switch.
It's also got the same two speaker system on the bottom. What it means, though, is that all of your accessories going all the way back to the original iPad Air will fit iPad 6 - including many iPad Air 2 accessories.
With these updates and at this price, it's a better value than ever. It's still not an iPad Pro but many - perhaps even most? - people won't care.

And the larger 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch options.īut it's almost half price: Starting at $329 instead of $649.Īnd for that you get the same chipset as the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus (which is the same as iPad Pro, minus the X-tra cores), the same Apple Pencil support as the iPad Pro, faster LTE networking (optional), and access to the same 200,000 education apps and 1,000,000 tablet-optimized apps in the iPad App Store. The 12 mp / 4K rear camera and 7 mp / 1080p front camera. The Smart Connector for Apple Smart Keyboard. It lacks the 4 GB of RAM for simultaneous side-by-side and slide-over apps. It lacks the quad-speaker system for landscape stereo. The 2018 iPad (6th Generation) lacks the laminated, DCI-P3 wide color gamut, 120 Hz ProMotion, color-matching TrueTone display of the iPad Pro.
