Business Wire
Apple® today announced that models of iPad Air™ 2 and iPad mini™
3 with cellular networking will be available in China starting this
week. TD-LTE and FDD-LTE standards, as well as TD-SCDMA, DC-HSDPA,
HSPA+ and other fast networks, are all available in a single model,
giving iPad Air 2 customers in China the ability to stay connected
on advanced cellular data networks in China and around the world so
they can go more places and do more things.
iPad Air 2 is the thinnest and most powerful iPad® ever. Just
6.1 mm thin and weighing less than a pound, iPad Air 2 is packed
with amazing new innovations—an improved Retina® display with a new
anti-reflective coating that reduces glare by 56 percent* for
enhanced viewing in the office, the classroom or outdoors; all new
iSight® and FaceTime® cameras for capturing stunning photos and
videos; second generation 64-bit A8X chip that delivers improved
CPU and graphics performance while playing games or working; and
the revolutionary Touch ID™, a simple and secure way to unlock iPad
with just the touch of a finger and authenticate within apps to
better protect logins and data. Thin and light enough that you can
comfortably hold it all day, iPad Air 2 still delivers the up to
10-hour battery life** users expect from iPad. iPad Air 2 with WLAN
+ Cellular delivers faster WLAN and FDD-LTE for up to 50 percent
faster cellular connections*** so users can easily get and stay
connected wherever they go.
The new iPad mini 3 joins iPad Air 2 in offering users the
simplicity and security of Touch ID; both run more than 675,000
apps specifically designed for iPad and come in three gorgeous
metallic finishes—gold, silver and space gray.
