Hey guys I am Nirvana, and today I am back here with another video on my channel in this video. I will be giving you a detailed review of the Apple iPad, 8 generation and also will be sharing some of my own experiences after using it for a couple of weeks and also, whether is it worth buying in 2021, so just sit back, relax grab a cup of coffee and without wasting any time, let's get started. Okay, so the brand-new Apple iPad, 8 generation was officially announced on september 15, 2020. In terms of build quality. The tablet is built with a glass front, aluminum back and aluminum frame. The screen type is retina IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen and provides a resolution of 1620 into 2160 pixels.
It weighs 490 grams, its screen size is of 10.2 inches and 74.4 percent screen to body ratio. As you can see, mine is silver, and you get two more color variants that is gold and space gray. Now, in terms of connectivity, you get two choices. That is one with Wi-Fi and another with Wi-Fi plus cellular, which means you can use a sim card too, as well in your iPad. In terms of storage, you get two variants that is 32 GB and 128 GB.
Now, let's talk about what are the items that we get inside the box? Firstly, we get our 8th generation iPad and USB c to lightning cable and a 20 watt, USB c power adapter, but unfortunately no data cable for the file transferring between your iPad and your PC. In that case, you have to separately purchase a data cable to make your job done at the front side of the iPad. We get the home button. That is the fingerprint scanner, the front camera at the top. We get the power button and the headphone jack and microphone on the right side.
We get the volume rockers at the back side, we get the main camera at the bottom side. Furthermore, we get the lightning port and the speaker. Now, let's talk about its technical specifications. First 10.2 inch LCD, IPS retina display for incredible detail and vivid colors apple claims that it has 16 million color display and the display is protected by scratch: resistance glass. Second, it has 3 GB ram and 2 storage variants, that is of 32, GB and 128gb.
Third, the iPad comes with six sensors, that is, the fingerprint scanner, the accelerometer, the gyro, the compass, the barometer and Siri natural language comments and dictation. Fourth, rear camera is of 8 megapixel standard and the front camera is of 1.2 megapixel standard. Fifth, it comes with a non-removable, lip 32.4 watt battery, which lasts for 10 hours with normal use. Now, let's talk about some of its advantages: good news for music lovers. As this iPad comes with a 3.5 mm headphone jack for audio output. Number two.
Thanks to the all new improved apples, a12, bionic, chipset and 3gb ram gaming has now become a lot more fun. You will experience no lag or hitting issue at all whatsoever. You can run high definition and high graphics games very easily and smoothly. Third, this iPad can be a perfect buy for students and teachers as well and apple also provides a decent price concession for students and teachers for educational purpose. Fourth, with the improved a12 bionic chipset multitasking has now become much faster and easier too.
Fifth apple provides iMovie app by default in the iPad, so that you can edit your videos if you want- and actually it's good news for YouTubers too as well as me, okay, so enough of the advantages now, let's talk about some of its disadvantages too, as well number one. No provision for SD card that is memory card slot is not provided, so you might run out of storage easily. If you go for the 32gb variant, number two is not waterproof, so any accidental water contact can damage it quite easily number three. In my opinion, this device is not suitable for those people who love, painting or doing other drawing stuffs. You will not feel that much of satisfaction and perfection in this device in terms of painting and drawing stuffs.
Instead, you people can go for the iPad Air series number four, no NFC technology provided by apple in this iPad. That's why? If you purchase the cellular model 2 as well, you will not be able to make payments via NFC, which is quite annoying foreign, so, okay, so now, let's talk about whether is it worth buying in 2021. In my opinion, the answer to this question is a big. Yes. Actually, from its price point of view, this iPad makes its job done, and it is apple's one of the cheapest iPad right now in the market.
I personally purchased it for my educational purpose and also for doing my editing, video stuffs and all that I would like to recommend you all to purchase this iPad as it's worth. The price and students and teachers will also get special price concession 2 from apple for educational purpose. Hope you guys liked and enjoyed this video.
