"iPad is our vision for the future of computing and hundreds of millions of people around the world use it every day at work, in school and for play. This new 9.7-inch iPad takes everything people love about our most popular iPad and makes it even better for inspiring creativity and learning," said Greg Joswiak, Apple's vice president of Product Marketing.

The new iPad 9.7 inch features a Retina display in an aluminium unibody construction. In the official blog post, Apple claimed that it is powered by the Apple's A10 Fusion chip with 64-bit desktop-class architecture, which the company claims can deliver 40 per cent faster CPU and 50 per cent faster graphics performance for seamless multitasking and graphics-intensive apps when compared to the previous gen iPad 9.7inch. The front- and rear-facing cameras can be used for document scanning, moviemaking and FaceTime calls.<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

Running iOS 11, it features Dock for quick access to frequently used apps and documents from any screen. Apple also enabled multitasking with Split View and Slide Over. Drag and Drop makes moving images, text and files between apps easier. Apple Pencil is more deeply integrated into iPad with support for inline drawing. The Files app provides a central place to access and organize files no matter where they are located - on iPad or in the cloud with built-in support for iCloud Drive and providers like Box, Dropbox and others.

"Our most popular and affordable iPad now includes support for Apple Pencil, bringing the advanced capabilities of one of our most creative tools to even more users. This iPad also has the power of the A10 Fusion chip, combined with the big, beautiful Retina display, advanced cameras and sensors that enable incredible AR experiences simply not possible on other devices,"says Joswiak.<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
