The Apple iPad 10.2 2019 version was a big value-for-price product, with users all across the world loving it for its affordable price and solidly nailed down features. The latest in the line: the Apple iPad 10.2 2020, follows a similar path. With a faster chipset and a 20W charger included in-the-box, the Apple iPad 10.2 2020 has finally found its way to the Nepali market as well. So in this article, we’ll be looking over this new gizmo, its price in Nepal, and whether or not it lives up to its hype of being the best budget iPad right now.
Apple iPad 10.2 Overview:
Design and Display:
The Apple iPad 2020 is probably the best entry-level iPad Apple has come out with yet… even though there doesn’t seem to be much that’s different design-wise. The iPad 2020 retains the classic iPad look, with a 9.8 x 6.8 x 0.29-inch body and a 10.2-inch Retina IPS LCD screen. Measuring at ~490 grams, the display supports multi-touch and is protected under the care of layers of Scratch-resistant glass and oleophobic coating.
The tablet device comes with wide bezels on the top and bottom, and narrow ones on the sides. The top bezel houses the iPad’s front camera while the rear houses the main single-camera on the top-left corner.
Performance:
While not a lot has changed design-wise, the performance sector has gotten a pretty substantial boost. Featuring the A12 Bionic chip with a promised 40% faster performance, the Hexa-core Vortex+Tempest CPU and 4-core GPU do a great job of making sure everything stays smooth and lag-free.
The graphics in this device has reportedly been boosted by 2x. With bold claims that the new iPad is twice as faster than most Microsoft devices, the iPad 2020 also comes with Neural Processing Unit, making sure that AI-heavy apps and AR(Augmented Reality) apps run as smoothly as possible.
Software:
The Apple iPad 10.2 ships with the iPadOS 14. Featuring numerous upgrades including handy little sidebars, Universal Search, and app redesigns, it also supports external keyboards. The connection with the Apple Pencil is flawless as always, and the added performance specs and Neural Processing Unit means that most of the device’s basic features run virtually lag-free on the device.
