Apple's devices offer great usability, can serve for both entertainment and productivity, are durable and generally good value for money. The iPad Air was unveiled last month and it looks great. It also seems like there is one more reason to love this device. It carries an awesome battery with almost unparalleled battery life.</p> <span class="fullpost"><p>A recent experiment carried out by AnandTech showed just that. The test was run on the new LTE version of the iPad Air where they put it in Personal Hotspot mode to broadcast the device's data connection to another connected device. With an active single connection downloading data from the internet at a constant speed, the iPad Air lasted 24.08 hours before giving up. This is probably better than any other tablet on the market right now.</p> <p>This test was conducted by turning off the display of the iPad and connecting it to a MacBookPro, which was downloading data at a steady 100KB/s. The hotspot was limited to only one device to measure actual capacity, which turned out to be amazing. If anything, Apple has done a fantastic job this time round.</p> <p>AnandTech also explains the reasoning behind such results. They had conducted a similar test for the LTE iPad 3 as well, but this time, Apple has opted for a different architecture and SoC for both the processor and the modem that is carried within. The low power consumption allows the iPad Air's smaller battery to function better than the previous generation devices, despite carrying a smaller charge. This kind of improvement shows that Apple is committed to improving the experience of its users with every new device.</p> <p>If you haven't gotten your hands on the new iPad Air yet, you will be happy to hear that it is now available in over 42 countries around the world.</p> </span> </span></span>
