A8X looks solid, 2.5x GPU, 40% cpu.

Definitely, it's the only thing that annoys me about the Mini Retina.

Has an extra billion transistors so has to have more ram.

Oh i don't hate it, it's a minor annoyance, but would be better without!

I'm super picky with certain things that are actual a non issue for no one else.

RAM isn't on die so transistor count woun't include it.
Edit - looks like they're using stacked dies, so not sure actually.
What are these? Does ipad air have them?
gap between glass and lcd panel and yes.
Tiny gap in between the screen and the outside glass ... almost makes them feel spongy to the touch. At least, that's how my Mini Retina feels anyway.
Probably to try and aid the device when dropped I would have thought.
Ah is it when you look at it at an angle you can see a slight gap and where the lcd panel ends then black?

Touch ID
Hope its used for multiply accounts, be awesome for sharing devices.
Bought an Air last year but if this does have memory definitely consider replacing it.
Touch ID is nice too. Got used to it with my iPhone and try and unlock iPad now same way
Not sure the extra power would make any difference as I don't use it for games?

Right, that's enough thinness now, if next years is even thinner they've got issues!
What's with Apple's obsession with thinness? Surely consumers would be happier if they said "It's just as thick as the previous ipad Air but we have managed to squeeze in a larger battery which will give you an extra five hours use!". What was wrong with the thickness of the old ipad?
Meh just a pet hate.
