The new tablets from Apple , iPad Air and iPad Mini screen Retina present interesting new data about its predecessors, such as A7 processor, high connectivity technology MIMO or HD display. However, the small variation in price between them, 90 euros in the most basic models, makes the decision to buy one or the other is not limited to the choice between a small and a large tablet, as it must take into account practical considerations. From Consumer describes the main technical aspects of Air and iPad iPad Mini Retina, so that each user can optimize your choice.
Dimensions: on the iPad Air, as its name suggests, the new star is its thinness compared to previous iPad model: its thickness is 20% lower, which makes it the largest size tablet market finest 7, 5 mm thick. Its surface is 24 inches high and 16.9 inches wide, the width has lost an inch from the previous model without changing the display surface, because the frame is 43% thinner.
The iPad Mini with Retina display has a thickness of 7.5 mm (same as iPad Air); its height is 20 inches and width of 13.47 inches, as in the previous model. When comparing their widths, the iPad Mini is still more manageable in portability that the iPad Air, and that they both have a 4:3 aspect ratio so not suitable for the human hand as 16:9 Nexus Range Google.
Weight: the other great strength of the iPad Airs have gotten to be the lightest big tablet market, thanks to the reduction in size and the materials used in its manufacture: 454 grams in the basic model with wireless connectivity and 16 gigabytes of memory. With its size, this weight makes it ideal for transport in any purse or briefcase without barely notice its presence, it is also because of its lightness, for reading e-books or watching movies and series, without the wrist or the arm resent too.
Both Air and iPad iPad Mini with Retina developments in connectivity feature The iPad Mini with Retina display wins high resolution of the images and text showing, but pay with increased weight, which rises to 331 grams in the basic model . If you choose a model with connectivity LTE mobile data networks, its weight amounts to 341 grams. The ratio of the weight with respect to the display surface, 7.9 inches, recently recommended to the duties specified in the preceding paragraph, unless you want to use almost always away from home or office, so which the weight plays in their favor.
Screen: The screen of iPad Air does not change over previous models and is maintained in the 9.7 inches. Its resolution it was in the last generation iPad 2,048 x 1,536 pixels: high definition Retina screen. Keep these standards, allowing you to have a good experience of reading and watching videos. In the case of the iPad Mini Retina display technology and its high resolution, the same as the iPad Air, is a significant gain, since it involves providing very portable tablet good reading and viewing experience when not in the usual places. This makes the I pad in the best alternative to an eBook reader lets you race classic in phablets market, but do not let you make voice calls.

These characteristics enable them to connect to wireless networks with greater speed and efficiency. Regarding mobile data networks, both models feature LTE connectivity versions, on the other hand, sensitively expensive. However, more affordable version of Air with LTE iPad is priced at 629 euros, while the LTE version of iPad Mini with Retina stands at 509 euros, which makes it an interesting option as tablet outside of high range.
Processor and autonomy: in this respect the two tablets are on equal terms with the new A7 processor (the same one that has the iPhone 5S) with a 64-bit architecture, much higher than the above with 32 bit architecture. It is unclear to what use so much processing power in a tablet, since 64 bit processors so far have been aimed at gaming and industrial graphics tasks but ahead of the innovations of the future, it is always better to have maximum Power to the pocket can afford. In addition, to compensate for this waste of processing power, both models feature the coprocessor M7, responsible for managing the applications that run on tablets and they are in the background, prioritizing sustainable functions from the point of view of energy. Thus, the battery can reach ten hours intensive.
Price: the price differential is not as important as they are ergonomic issues when deciding on one of the two tablets. The cost of starting with 16 gigabytes of memory and Wi-Fi connectivity iPad Air is 499 euros and the iPad Mini Retina of 389 euros. In the case of incorporating LTE connectivity, this amounts to 629 euros and 509 euros respectively. The iPad Mini from the previous generation, no HD screen or A7 processor, will sell for 289 euros.
