UNITED STATES—Tuesday, October 22, was a big day for tech lovers as Apple unleashed new models for the popular iPad just in time for the holidays. Apple unleashed the iPad Air. The device is the lightest prototype for the popular tablet on the go. Its 7.5 millimeters thin and weighs only one pound!

Seriously, how in the world is Apple able to create such a device? The improved Retina display ensures consumers the ability to see the content that is desired and crisp pictures with precision. The tech giant has promised a device that has speeds and graphics unlike any other with its A7 chip and it doesn’t hurt that the battery life for the device is a little over 10 hours.

Just imagine all the mayhem and trouble that we can get into. The device contains two antennas which increase the wireless capabilities for those savvy business people on the go. It’s important to note that the device doesn’t come cheap, at a price range of $499, the iPad Air brings 16GB with it.

For those tech lovers looking for the iPad in a smaller genre, the iPad Mini is back with Retina display to supersede its predecessor. The device also comes equipped with the A7 chip for faster speeds and a 10 hour batter life as well. The price tag is not as steep as the iPad Air, but consumers will still fork out $399 for the latest gadget.

The great thing about the release of new technology is the fact that older models will now become a bit more affordable for those consumers eyeing to purchase the coveted device.
