When will the new iPad air be released 3. iPad lineup. Estimated cost in Russia
A new tablet from Apple, the presentation of which is expected to take place on March 18. According to rumors, the new iPad will receive an improved processor and Touch ID fingerprint scanner, 2 gigabytes of RAM and a completely new design.
Apple began to officially sell the new and the fifth generation iPad mini in Russia, as evidenced by the data from the company's online store. New items are already available for purchase, the delivery time at the time of this writing was 1 business day for all configurations of the updated tablets.
As soon as the next new product from Apple goes on sale, the specialists of the famous iFixit workshop are among the first to receive the device for review. Experts have already disassembled and. It's the turn of the new iPad Air. The iFixit wizards will tell you what changes the internal layout of the device has undergone, and what is interesting inside.
On March 18, Apple introduced two new iPads at once - the new generation iPad Air and the fifth generation iPad mini. Both new items received the latest hardware, support for "smart" pen, Touch ID fingerprint scanner and a lower price compared to the current iPad. Despite the fact that almost three weeks have passed since the release, the new iPads are still not officially sold in Russia, which, however, will not be a hindrance if you want to get an iPad Air 3 or iPad mini 5 as soon as possible.
This week was full of new items - first, and then and. While the price for Mac computers remained practically unchanged, the cost of tablets increased significantly. Together with them, the prices for non-warranty repair of devices in authorized service centers also increased.
Then, in a special menu, you can select an operator and use the data transfer at the appropriate rate. T-Mobile already has a free 250MB service. This means that if you have an Apple SIM, then when you arrive in the United States, you can use your tablet to check mail, social networks, plan a route to a hotel, and so on. In the future, this will allow you to freely travel the world and choose different operators in different countries. Well, the money will be debited from the bank card linked to the Apple ID. From there, by the way, it is supposed to take the personal data of the subscriber.
My collection of foreign SIM-cards currently has 30 pieces. Of these, six are used regularly. So, in my case, the convenience of Apple SIM is obvious. First, there is no need to carry a few small pieces of plastic with you and risk losing them. Secondly, when arriving in a new country, you do not need to look for an operator's store. Thirdly, there is no need to spend money on data roaming, which remains obscenely expensive for all operators around the world. This is the only moment that, as it seems to me, can alert the operators. However, it can also be perceived positively. For example, having arrived at night in a conditional Shanghai, you will not be able to buy a SIM card at all, because all stores are closed, therefore, the local operator will not receive your money at all for objective reasons, the “native” operator will not receive anything because of his greed. And if anyone remains in the black, then it can only be a public Wi-Fi hotspot operator.
In the future, Apple will have information about different tariff plans of various operators in all (or almost all) countries of the world, will provide them with user information to connect to tariff plans. If all goes well, the physical SIM card can be abandoned altogether. The bad news is that this process is not very fast. It may take several years.
Competitors
It is clear that iPad is not chosen by comparing specifications. And the cases of switching from iOS to Android are extremely rare, so looking for and selecting potential competitors for the iPad is a difficult and thankless task. If we proceed from the image, then the Sony tablets are the closest to the iPad.
Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet
This tablet can be contrasted with the Apple iPad Air 2. It also has a very thin body, comparable screen diagonal, powerful hardware platform and workmanship. An additional plus will be protection from dust and moisture, which none of the iPads still can boast of.
This year, the world famous company has already released a number of new devices. This is a fresh version of the iPad Pro tablet with a diagonal of 9.7 inches, and the iPhone SE - a 4-inch smartphone with flagship stuffing and an iPhone 5s body. The presentation took place in March 2016. We will not go into details, earlier we and their benefits for fans of online poker and other games.
However, on March 21, many Apple supporters were slightly surprised by the fact that Apple, represented by Tim Cook, did not mention a word about the two expected tablets. We are talking about iPad Air 3 and iPad mini 5. Actually, let's catch up and discuss some interesting facts about these models.
iPad Air 3
Let's start with the line of "air" tablets. The fate of the third generation iPad Air is the most uncertain in comparison with other “tablets” for several reasons. First, unlike the Mini, the Air series never received an update last year. This is despite reports from online sources that the company is going to offer a new Air model.
Other than that, we all know the iPad Pro came out last year. Surely this event influenced Apple's Napoleonic plans for the iPad Air. Rumors have even appeared on the network that the iPad Air line will completely cease to exist, and the expected third iPad Air will never see the light of day.
Despite this, there were no official statements from Apple representatives on this matter. This means that the era of "air" tablets will continue and we will still get the new iPad Air 3 by the end of the year.
The British edition of PC Advisor is also optimistic. Journalists believe that the release of the new iPad Air may take place in October or November this year. Perhaps the most logical thing would be to focus on the time frame - if in 2016 we do not hear any news from Apple, most likely the production of the iPad Air will be discontinued. Whatever one may say, a year and a half have passed since the second iPad Air was released.
iPad mini 5
Unlike the model above, the outlook for the iPad mini 5 looks bright. The fourth generation model of this line debuted in September last year. Macworld predicts the iPad mini 5 will hit store shelves in October.
In any case, fans of apple products can expect at least one more novelty in the lineup of Apple tablets. We'll keep you updated on the development of the new Air and Mini tablets.

In this short note, I will summarize all the news about the upcoming release. iPad Air 3... All that is known at the level of rumors presently.
The screen is 9.7 inches. The tablet will have a 4K display. And that means a fantastic resolution of 4096 × 3072 (or 3840 × 2880). A more realistic rumor is that the resolution will be 2334 × 3112. For comparison, the iPad Pro's screen resolution is 2732 × 2048. Developers of games and programs for iOS in any case can "hang".
Battery improvements are expected. First, a higher resolution requires more power. Secondly, if the permission remains the same, then users can be “bribed” with increased operating time.
The iPad Air 3 will have 4 speakers (instead of two) to improve sound quality.
4 gigabytes of RAM. If there is an iPad Pro, then 100% will do it in the iPad Air 3.
The processor will be the same as in the iPad Pro - A9X. But there is a small chance for the new A10 from TSMC, which is rumored to be preparing for the iPhone 7. It all depends on the resolution: if 4K, then the chances of seeing the A10 already in the iPad Air will be greater.
Led flash to improve the quality of photographs taken at night. Hence, a flashlight will appear in the iPad Air 3. The camera will also be improved. Probably, it will become comparable in image quality to the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus.
iPad Air 3 will receive support from Apple's official stylus (you have to sell Apple Pencil to someone). A Smart Connector will almost certainly appear as well. This is a special interface for connecting accessories (in particular, keyboards). So Smart Keyboard for iPad Air 3 will appear.
3D Touch technology will most likely not be in the iPad Air 3. At least there were no rumors to say otherwise. Also, little is known about the thickness, but I found a figure of 6.1 millimeters (versus 6.9 for the iPad Air 2).
Indicative date of announcement(not released) tablet on March 14, 2016 (it will be Monday). Sales usually start a week or two after the announcement (you can only pre-order right away). The first iPad Air will disappear from sale, the price of the iPad Air 2 will become cheaper, and the iPad Air 3 will be sold at the same prices as the iPad Air 2 now. But if Apple, as in the iPad Pro line, gets rid of the 16 gigabyte model, then the minimum price for a tablet will jump a little (after all, an iPad with 32 gigabytes will be taken as a minimum).
Apple has held the palm in the tablet PC space for a long time. After all, it was they who made the world understand that the tablet is a compromise between compactness and a large screen.
Screen
Retina displays of high resolution and pixel density have already become a hallmark of almost all Apple products. But there is no technology that will last forever, and retina displays are no exception. Competitors are successfully promoting their 2K screens, which have even higher PPIs than ours.Therefore, it is logical to assume that the iPad Air 3 will increase the resolution, and the aspect ratio will already be 16:10, and not 4: 3. This will allow you to conveniently watch movies and other content, because this is what tablets are most often bought for. So we should expect the "usual" 2K display protected by a durable sapphire crystal. I think there is no need to talk about color rendition, Cupertinians have been at their best since the first iPad.
IPad Air 3 release date
Apple has a certain specificity of the release of its new products, and judging from it, certain conclusions can be drawn. Many analysts claim the iPad 3 Air will be announced in Q3 2015.Iron
Compared to Android devices, iPhones and iPads often had weaker hardware, but at the same time, due to optimization, they worked very quickly. Apple iPad Air 3 shouldn't make a big difference. Surely the new processor in the tablet will be marked with an X, which means it will be just an improved version of its predecessor. It will be even more powerful and even more energy efficient than the A8X, but nothing special should be expected, even if it is called the A9.As for the RAM, but 95% that its volume will double, that is, it will be equal to 2GB. Considering that everything worked perfectly with 1GB, this will be an excellent reserve for the future.
Unfortunately, we have no more data on the technical characteristics of the iPad 3.
Camera
To begin with, tablets are not designed for photography by default, it looks very strange. Of course, there are cases when you need to quickly take a photo of a document, or something else, but tablets are not devices for everyday photography. How often do you use your tablet camera?Regardless, the latest iPads have had excellent iPhone-class cameras. iPad 3 Air should get the same 8MP camera with improved sensor and new software capabilities.
