The Apple 10.9″ iPad features the Retina display with a 2360 x 1640 resolution for crisp details and vivid colors, making it an ideal companion for watching movies, creating content, and much more. The Retina Display also has True Tone technology, which adjusts the display to the color temperature of the room so it’s more comfortable for viewing in any light. Plus, a 12MP Ultra-Wide front camera delivers a huge boost in image quality and a wide 122° field of view. The iPad also features Center Stage, which automatically pans the camera to keep subjects in view. This is especially useful when other people join in because the camera detects them and smoothly zooms out to include them. Center Stage shines during video calls and it makes them feel more natural, and works in FaceTime as well as third-party video-calling apps. The A14 Bionic chip is more powerful than its predecessor, the A13 Bionic chip, and supports Neural Engine machine learning. Moreover, its Smart Connector offers Smart Keyboard support for comfortable typing, while its display is compatible with the 1st gen Apple Pencil, so users can write and draw. Equipped with Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and Bluetooth 5.2, the iPad boasts a USB-C connector. This iPad is rated for up to 10 hours of use to keep you going throughout the day.
This iPad comes preloaded with ipadOS. Please check your device settings for the latest available update.
Apple has been part of the ConnectED initiative since 2014, pledging $100 million of teaching and learning solutions to 114 undeserved schools across the country. We’ve donated an iPad to every student, a Mac and iPad to every teacher, and an Apple TV to every classroom. And we’ve implemented a process that provides planning, professional learning, and ongoing guidance so every school can experience the transformational power of technology.
Many Apple ConnectED schools do not have a strong network or a dedicated technology department. So before any products are delivered, Apple Project Engineers conduct a full survey of the school’s existing wireless infrastructure and help install or upgrade a network. To help every teacher become comfortable with new technology, the Apple Education team provides a series of workshops designed specifically for educators. We start by helping them integrate iPad, Mac, and Apple TV into their curriculum and lessons, then show them how to create original and engaging books, presentations, and other learning materials. Compared to the previous year, open leadership roles filled by women globally increased by 10 percentage points overall, and by 8 percentage points in R&D. And in the U.S., open leadership roles filled by people from underrepresented communities increased by 16 percentage points overall, and by 9 percentage points in R&D.
