The ninth-generation iPad uses the same design as the seventh and eighth generation iPads. It is compatible with Apple Pencil (1st generation), Smart Keyboard and Smart Connector for keyboard attachments.[4] It uses the Apple A13 Bionic chip, which Apple claims gives a 20% CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine increase in performance compared to its predecessor. It features a 10.2-inch Retina display identical to the previous models with 1620 by 2160 pixels at a pixel density of 264 PPI, and includes the True Tone technology, meaning the display can adjust its temperature based on the surrounding lighting temperature. A new 12 MP front camera was implemented in the iPad, replacing the older 1.2 MP front camera, and features the Center Stage technology that detects the user and moves the camera view accordingly during video recording and calls using on-device processing. The base storage has also been doubled to 64 GB.[4]
iPadOS 15 is preinstalled at release.[4]
