The 2018 iPad models are a huge step up in both design and specs, but one Twitter user comparing specs spotted that they are a downgrade in one respect …
Public Health professional Ravi Chowdhury noted that rear camera in the latest models have a 5-element lens in place of the 6-element one on the 10.5-inch iPad, and also lack the optical image stabilization (OIS) of the older model.
The reason is almost certainly lack of space in Apple’s thinnest ever iPad design.
