Apple Unveils New iPad Air, Pricing from $779 in Canada

Apple has just announced the launch of its all-new iPad Air, featuring an all-screen design with a larger 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, a new integrated Touch ID sensor in the top button, camera and audio upgrades, and the powerful A14 Bionic for a massive boost in performance.

Available starting next month in five brand-new finishes i.e. Silver, Space Gray, Rose Gold, Green, and Sky Blue, the new iPad Air features a completely new thin and light design. The all-new display packs 3.8 million pixels and advanced technologies, including full lamination, P3 wide color support, True Tone, and an anti-reflective coating.

To allow the display to extend on all sides, a next-generation Touch ID sensor is integrated into the top button. The latest-generation A14 Bionic chip features a new 6-core design for a 40 percent boost in CPU performance, and a new 4-core graphics architecture for a 30 percent improvement in graphics.

iPad Air, which includes a 7MP front-facing FaceTime HD camera, now features the same 12MP rear camera used in iPad Pro for higher resolution photos and 4K video capture. It also features a USB-C port for connecting to cameras, hard drives, and external monitors up to 4K.

The new iPad Air will be available to order starting next month in Canada. Wi-Fi models of iPad Air in 64GB and 256GB configurations will be available with a starting price of $779 (CAD) and Wi-Fi + Cellular models, starting at $949 (CAD).
