Apple iPad 8th Generation 2020 - Manufacturer Description
Kick some serious tasks.
With iPad, getting work done is all hustle and no hassle. Edit a document while researching something on the web and making a FaceTime call to a colleague at the same time. Attach a fullsize Smart Keyboard for comfortable typing. And for tasks that require more precision, support for a trackpad or mouse complements the familiar MultiTouch experience of iPad.
Jot till you drop.
Paired with the power of iPadOS 17, Apple Pencil (1st Gen) (not included) makes notetaking with iPad a breeze. Do things like sign paperwork, mark up a document or sketch out an idea. It feels as natural to use as a regular pencil, but with so much more capability.
Learn your lesson the fun way.
Let your curiosity run wild with iPad. The App Store is the best place to discover apps that let you get a leg up in geometry, learn a new language and attend virtual classes. You can even use augmented reality to learn something exciting, like watching the history of space flight unfold in your living room or making characters from your favourite book literally leap off the page.
Live your best extra life.
It’s go time for gaming. The A12 Bionic chip delivers an amazing performance boost, so games are immersive, fluid and incredibly detailed. And you can pair an Xbox Wireless Controller with Bluetooth, PlayStation DualShock controller or MFi game controller with your iPad to create the ultimate portable game console.2 You can also try out Apple Arcade, with over 100 adfree games in one subscription.3
Draw something drawsome.
iPad lets you express your creative ideas in so many ways. Whether you’re painting a watercolour, designing a logo or just sketching up a storm, Apple Pencil is the perfect tool to bring your vision to life. It’s designed to feel intuitive and let you draw with pixelperfect precision.
Shoot from the hip. Edit with your finger.
No matter how you capture your photos and videos, with the 8MP back camera or the FaceTime HD camera on iPad, with an iPhone or with a digital camera, you’ll love editing them on the large, immersive screen of your iPad. Take advantage of the machine learning capabilities to enhance your photos. Once you’ve got your perfect shot, share it to your social feeds or send it to friends with a tap.
Your home cinema. Home optional.
Everything you watch on iPad looks and sounds awesome, thanks to the 10.2 inch Retina display and stereo system. With the Apple TV app, you’ll have access to popular streaming services, mustwatch shows and blockbuster movies.
Take your to-do list to go.
With a thin and light design and fast WiFi, iPad is designed to go where your life goes. So you can browse the web, download books and more, wherever you are. And with up to 10 hours of battery life (from new, actual performance may be less), you can do it all on a single charge. It does pretty much everything but carry itself.
Apps for everything.
There are over a million apps on the App Store specifically designed for the large display and power of iPad. Make a beat, get a workout in, read the news or join a battle royale with friends. Whatever you’re interested in, you’ll find an app for it.
Privacy built in.
Like every Apple product, iPad was designed with your privacy and security in mind.
Designed for everyone.
Technology is most powerful when everyone can use it. That’s why iPad comes with accessibility features that support vision, hearing, mobility and cognitive needs. Like sign language prominence in FaceTime, which can detect when a participant is using sign language and make them prominent in a Group FaceTime call.
10.2-inch Retina display
With incredible detail and vivid colours, the new, larger Retina display is perfect for watching a film, working on a project and drawing your next masterpiece.
