Apple has finally taken the covers off its latest razor-sharp tablet, iPad Air 2. The new model boasts of several changes,including thinner body, new gold colour
option, fingerprint scanner, faster
processor and better camera.

Let's take a look at the six new features of Apple iPad Air 2 over its predecessor...

Apple has shaved a few milimetres off the original iPad Air's thickness and achieved an 18% thinner body for iPad Air 2. The model is just 6.1mm thick and weighs 437grams, making it the sleekest tablet in
the market right now.

Though its screen size and resolution remain the same as that of its predecessor, iPad Air 2 one major upgrade is in the display department.

The screen is thinner this time around as Apple has fused three layers (touch sensor, LCD panel and cover glass) into one fully-laminated layer,which results in vibrant colours and greater contrast.

The iPad Air 2 also includes an M8 motion coprocessor, gathering elevation info from a barometer, the same as the new iPhones.
