And O2 have a deal on the iPad Air 2 where you can save up to £104 on a monthly 10GB tariff or sign up for a chance to get your hands on the Apple tablet for nearly nothing in their price crash reverse auction.
Apple’s SoCs are well-known for using two strong custom CPU cores, and the A9X doesn’t depart from tradition in that regard.

It is also worth mentioning that while the display resolution is much greater than on other iPads, the iPad Pro does not feature the 12-megapixel camera of the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus that would place additional demands on the memory hierarchy for real-time image processing.
