iPad 9th Gen (2021) New Features Explained




Although it holds a simplified name, the iPad is anything but simple. Apples latest tablet utilises the A13 Bionic chip to enable a range of brilliant features, making both this and its sibling - the iPad Mini, some of the best and most affordable iPads to date.

In this Blog, we explain some of the best new features on the latest range of iPads so you can find out more about whether this is the tablet for you.

Performance on the iPad 9th Gen

The A13 Bionic neural engine allows an incredible 20% increase performance boost over the previous generation, making it a whopping 6 times faster than the best-selling Android tablet. When you combine this with the fact that this iPad sits at the most affordable pricing on any iPad release, it already seems a bit of a no-brainer for us when it comes to purchasing.

This impressive 6 core chip allows you to run advanced applications with ease, whether that’s games or graphic design applications - making this iPad ideal for both working and unwinding. 

Battery life on the 2021 iPad

When you combine the processor with an improved battery on the iPad, you can enjoy up to 10 hours of web browsing or video streaming over WiFi and 9 hours via cellular use for all-day power.


Best features on the iPad 9th gen display

This 10.2” display offers a pretty impressive feature, which is True Tone. This can adjust the on-screen content to the brightness and temperature of the room. So, no matter if you’re reading an e-book at night or browsing the web outside on a sunny day, you can enjoy it with lighting that’s optimised for its surroundings.



The camera on the 2021 iPad

The rear camera remains the same in the 9th generation as the 8th with 8MP. However, we see a massive jump on the front camera, from 1.2MP up to an impressive 12MP front camera. We are glad to see that Apple have really taken into consideration the way that we use technology in modern times, as you can now enjoy high-quality facetime calls, zoom meetings or remote learning.

Combine this with centre stage, which automatically pans the camera to keep you in clear view, and you have an iPad that has effortless communication at the heart of its design.



Storage options on the 9th gen iPad

With a better camera and processor that allows for more complex apps, it makes sense to have higher storage options. With the iPads, you can choose between a generous 64GB storage all the way up to a whopping 256GB. These are ideal as they can allow you to have everything you want saved onto your portable companion for whenever you need it.


Materials on the iPad 2021

This casing is both light and durable, offering peace of mind when carrying it on the go. But this isn’t our favourite thing about the casing on the iPad, as we were seriously impressed to discover that it is made from 100% recycled aluminium.

Not only this, the solder of the main logic board is made from 100% recycled tin and we see the use of 100% recycled rare earth elements in the magnets enclosure.

We are glad to see Apple taking steps towards a more sustainable range, which when combined with a goal of being 100% carbon neutral gives reassurance with the purchase.

iPadOS 15

It’s not just the hardware that offers serious upgrades, as we see improved software thanks to iPadOS 15. With the software upgrade, we can see both split view and side view for more intuitive use on the larger screen.

Another awesome feature is the LiveText, which can allow you to access a range of information through the iPads camera. With this, you simply need to snap a picture or hold the camera over something - for example a storefront - to be able to find out more information as well as send a text, make a call or look up directions.

Encrypted Data Storage vs Traditional Data Storage

If you run a business, you may have large amounts of important data and files that need to be kept secure and confidential. So what’s the best way to keep this data safe? You need secure storage devices! A recent survey conducted by iStorage Ltd, found that some businesses may be at risk, with two thirds of data being stored on unencrypted storage devices. iStorage Ltd is an award-winning company and trusted global leader in PIN-authenticated, hardware-encrypted data storage and cloud encryption devices. Their research into data security found that 99% of people consider data security to be a necessary practice, but only 5% are following advice from the National Cyber Security Centre on data storage and backup. Not storing and backing up data with secure methods is causing a vast majority of data, and the businesses storing this data, to become vulnerable. Because of this, it's important to let businesses know about the importance of using encrypted storage methods, over tradit...
