Apple's iPad Air 2 Model! - iPad 6 (2014) #Helpful Post

ey guys john here with TLD hope you

guys are doing well I am back with a

very exciting videos we now have a

closer look and sneak peek of what to

expect with the upcoming iPad air tube

otherwise known as the 6th generation

iPad now real quickly taking a stroll

back down memory lane in terms of the

history of the iPad of course it all

started with the original first

generation iPad it was then followed by

the iPad 2 then strangely enough for the

third generation iPad Apple decided to

call the new iPad in strange naming

scheme aside that was significant

because it brought the Retina display to

the iPad taking that 1024 by 768

resolution and bumping it up to 2048 by

1536 now shortly thereafter in fact it

was the same exact year Apple released

the third generation iPad they decided

to bump out the fourth generation it was

different with that compared to the

third has it not only brought a much

more powerful processor in GPU but it

also brought the Lightning port to the

iPad kind of unifying it with Apple's

flagship products at that time rewind

back to last year 2013 Apple released

its fifth generation iPad which we now

know as the iPad air and that was big

because it definitely brought back some

life and some freshness to the iPad

lineup taken after its little Bros

design the iPad Mini in terms of the

sleekness of thinness and the actual

looks of the iPad now as of recording

this video it is June 2014 that means we

are only a couple months away from the

next generation iPad and I actually got

my hands on what appears to be the

alleged iPad air 2 dummy model now huge

thank you to sunny Dixon for making this

happen I'm sure by now most of you have

probably heard of him he has the Apple

leak master if not I will have him

linked down below so what exactly does

this iPad air to dummy model tell us

about Apple's next generation iPad

there's actually a few different things

the first of them being there isn't

going to be a huge change design wise or

form factor compared to the original

iPad air you can see the bezel looks

very similar if you do however look at

them side-by-side you can see that this

model is a little bit thinner than the

current iPad air that measures in a

thickness of 7.5 millimeters

whereas this comes in at about 6 to 6

and a half millimeters so it is a little

bit thinner than the current iPad air

here you can see there's a slight

difference on this model of these

speakers compared to the current iPad

air that has two rows of speak

left and right whereas this one has a

single row both left and right the

downside of this though is that there

will be no front facing speakers on the

next generation iPad I know it wasn't

rumored or talked about but if you've

used the HTC One m7 or m8 you know how

important how awesome this feature could

be and I just want it on the next iPad

now this next thing is probably the

single thing in this video that I would

take with a grain of salt not really

look too deeply into that is the fact

that the dummy model is slightly heavier

than the current iPad air but of course

there are no internal parts there are no

physical components so again this is not

a big thing or not something I would

look to compare now moving up towards

the top of the dummy model iPad air to

the volume rockers up and down on the

exact same spot but if you notice and

you really look closely they're actually

a little more recessed as opposed to

popping out like on the current iPad air

so that may be a good thing depending on

how you look at it so those are some of

the smaller differences that I've

noticed but I think the biggest thing

and if you're looking at this and it's

probably screaming at you is the

difference of the home button on this

model compared to the current iPad air

much to all of our disappointment the

iPad air did not include the touch ID

fingerprint reader like we saw in the

iPhone 5s so you can see unlike the

current iPad air which has that classic

Apple kind of vintage now square home

button this now has the familiar looking

ring home button that's going to give us

access to the touch ID fingerprint

reader now to briefly touch upon that

because I've used the iPhone 5s and the

iPad air once I got used to the iPhone

5s not having it on the iPad air was

definitely noticeable so this would be a

much welcomed feature on the iPad air 2

so that about wraps up this video

hopefully you guys enjoyed it if you did

and you are feeling like being awesome

make sure to hit that like button it is

much appreciated and of course I will

throw a virtual high five at your face

now as far as what we talked about in

this video definitely let me know what

is most exciting or appealing to you in

the upcoming iPad air 2 or just let me

know what you want to see most in

Apple's next generation iPad if you guys

have any questions on the upcoming iPad

air 2 the iPhone 6 or just tech in

general the absolute best way to get

ahold of me is on twitter at TLD today I

am on there pretty much all the time so

you more than likely get a reply aside

from that again thank you guys very much

for watching if you have not subscribed

make sure to do that that way don't miss

out on any coverage of the future iPad

air 2 or the iPad pro up that ever comes

out or of course the iPhone 6 if you

guys missed anything at all

and we'll all be recaps down in the

description including pictures of the

iPad air 2 mock-up as well as the gear

that I use to create these videos again

this is Jonathan and I will see you guys
