All iPad Models | All 2019 Models | Dynamically Compare This iPad to Others
The 10.2-Inch iPad (7th Gen) models -- introduced in 2019 -- are notable mostly because they are the first entry-level iPad series to support the "Smart Connector" and an Apple Smart Keyboard. Like the iPad (6th Gen) models that it replaced, it also supports the original Apple Pencil (A1603, MK0C2AM/A).
All iPad (7th Gen) devices -- including this China-only Wi-Fi and cellular capable model (A2199) -- are housed in white and gold colored, white and silver colored, or black and medium toned "Space Gray" cases and feature a 10.2" 2160x1620 (264 ppi) LED-backlit IPS touch-sensitive "Retina" display. It has a "Touch ID" fingerprint sensor, as well. Each is powered by a four core, 2.33 GHz Apple A10 Fusion processor, has 3 GB of RAM, and has 32 GB or 128 GB of flash memory storage.
Other significant features include dual cameras -- a rear-mounted 8 megapixel "iSight" camera capable of shooting stills, Live Photos, and 1080p 30 fps video and a front-mounted 1.2 megapixel "FaceTime HD" camera capable of shooting stills, Live Photos, and 720p video -- dual band 802.11ac Wi-Fi, HT80 with MIMO support (backwards compatible with 802.11a/b/g/n), and Bluetooth 4.2 in addition to stereo speakers. Connectivity to computers, if desired, and power is provided by the Lightning port.
The battery life of this cellular-capable iPad (7th Gen) model is reportedly 10 hours "surfing the web on Wi-Fi, watching video, or listening to music" and as much as 9 hours "surfing the web using [a] cellular data network."
This China-specific Wi-Fi/Cellular-equipped iPad (7th Gen, A2199) model has support for GPS/GNSS, GSM/EDGE, UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA, and LTE bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 25, 26, 28, 29, 30, 34, 38, 39, 40, 41, and 66.
