iPad Air is a 9.7-inch tablet with a 64-bit A7 processor and M7 motion coprocessor, making it one of the fastest tablets available. The A7 delivers twice the processing and graphics performance of the A6X chip in the former iPad 4. Just like the iPhone 5S, the A7 is supported with 1GB of RAM and a low-powered coprocessor that handles sensor data from the accelerometer, gyroscope and compass according to ZDNet. A key feature of the iPad Air is its 10-hour battery life, which allows it for full-day use on a single charge.
