iPad

In March 2018, Apple made a move to capture market share in education by updating the 9.7-inch iPad. It now comes with support for Apple Pencil, and its internals have been boosted too.

The 9.7-inch iPad features an A10 Fusion CPU and M10 motion coprocessor, and comes in 32GB and 128GB storage sizes. The touch sensor in the display now has a higher resolution, allowing it to support the Apple Pencil for the first time. It’s also got an 8MP rear camera and a 1.2MP front-facing camera.

On the software side, the iPad adds multitasking features, which are a boon for productivity. You can slide a second app over the right side of the one you’re working in, then dismiss it to get back to work. Picture in Picture enables you to watch video in a corner of the screen. There’s also Split View, which lets you work on two apps side by side.
