Is the iPad Air display resistant? What is it made out of?

I would like to know if the iPad Air screen is resistant, and if the answer is "yes", what is it made of then?

Here are detailed explanations of all the components of the iPad Air display:
IGZO display tech finally makes it to mass market: iPad Air now, high ...
Apple's iPad Air Adopts IGZO Technology for Thinner, Lower-Power ...
Here is the internal structure of an LCD display:
The resistance [to damage?] question is completely subjective and depends on, for example, if you drop it on your bed or drop it off the Empire State building.

  • 2 Problems with the Ipad Air...midi keyboard and usb microphone

    IN SHORT:
    2 Problems with the Ipad Air...what midi keyboard will connect to the lightning camera connector and what microphone as well?  There seems to be issues with the ipad air not being able to power them.  Has anyone got any devices to work yet?
    IN DEPTH:
    I have a yeti microphone that when I plug in it says its using too much power.  A little samsung go mic I have plugs in find and works but isnt quite what im looking for.  My midi keyboard is not reading...its probably 15yrs old (didnt expect it to work).  I have ordered a usb powered keyboard but im now nervous it may not work if it requires too much power.  Has anyone had any success with a particular model of keybaord?  I saw a youtube video of the CME Xkey in which it was plugged into an ipad that uses the lightning jack, but was unsure if it was the air or a different model.
    Any help is appreciated on this...I love my ipad air and hoping to make it my fully functional music recording device.
    By the way I mostly use garageband

    hey mate
    Yes what I ended up doing is buying a powered usb hub.  They are about 10 dollars or so on amazon.com.   There are tons to choose from.  I use a yeti micrphone now with no issues and a midi keyboard.  You will need the lightning usb adapter too.  You plug the lightning adapter into the ipad and the hub into the adapter then plug all your accessories into the powered hub.  So it works well you just gotta buy an extra piece of equipment.

  • The iPad Air 2 anti-reflective coating is useless with a screen protector.

    This is more of a statement than a question, but until Apple sells an iPad with a sapphire display, I'll be using a screen protector. Screen protectors negate the anti-reflective coating, leaving you with a screen that is just less bright and less power efficient than the previous generation. Pretty lame, huh? (There's my question!)

    Educate yourself a bit before you attempt to answer for the general public.

    I see you're a Steelers fan, so you're probably not the sharpest tool in the shed, but see if you can read the entire page. The only drastic improvement over the iPad Air display is the anti-reflective coating.
    Er, uh..."Wow!"

  • Does the iPad Air have a 3D display?

    I've recently got my iPad Air with a cool display etc etc. Today I was looking at the screen at the home page, and noticed that when you tilted the tablet, the desktop moves slightly in accordance with your eyes.
    It looks like that either the iPad Air has a three-dimensional surface, the device cleverly moves the background in accordance with tilt, or I am crazy.
    Which one is true?

    The iPads does not have a 3D display. But what you are seeing is called the parallax effect. It gives the illusion that the icons on the home scree are floating in a layer above the wallpaper photo.

  • Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.,

    Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.

    Absolutely!
    Install Splashtop2 on the PC and enable it to be controlled or ran from iPad or Reflection to simply allow iPad to serve as PC unwired monitor. With Splashtop and an Apple TV connected, you use the smartboard as usual, yet the PC and iPad can see the same content. The impaired child can even interact with the Smart Board via the iPad as if he were writing directly on the big screen. Erasing functions can be done by touching the Smart Board manual controls. Several variables are in play that cause this lack of functionality:
        Apple won't permit PC software that infringes its proprietary apps.
        Smart Board companies refuse to develop iPad apps because they feel threatened and are being replaced by iPads
        School districts think Apple TV is meant for copyright infringement and could expose them to safe harbor lawsuits
        Network administrators make it impossible to login Apple TVs because they don't want the streaming occurring
        Classrooms are not able to keep up with the technology of using the iPad
        Clicker companies refuse to play with iPad because they see it as a potential threat to their core business clients
        Apple is not working as hard as it could to exploit its capabilities in education, thus losing money in iPad sales
    The bottom line is that we educators and technology developers are hurting our childern with petty conflicts.

  • Ipad air 2 there's no silent mode like the other iPads ?? the button that does it does not exist on the iPad air 2 what does replace it??

    ipad air 2 there's no silent mode like the other iPads ?? the button that does it does not exist on the iPad air 2 what does replace it??

    hi the older button could be set to either "force portrait mode" or "silent mode". now you can do both in the iOS control center (swipe from the bottom of the screen), so the need for a button isn't needed anymore.

  • What is the best charging cable for the iPad Air (that is not made by Apple)? I need a long cable (over 6ft or more). I also need the cable to be of high quality and the cord part of the cable to be made of strong material.

    What is the best charging cable for the iPad Air (that is not made by Apple)? I need a long cable (over 6ft or more). I also need the cable to be of high quality and the cord part of the cable to be made of strong material. Apple does not make one this long. Is there a cable out there that is sturdy like this and is safe to use?

    yes, but I'm trying to use my iPad to type notes (using pages) and I have the smart case which I use as a stand. I need a cable long enough to fit through the back of my desk and the charging brick for the iPad won't fit behind the desk. I have to put it on the floor and then the apple cables aren't long enough to reach.

  • What exactly does the M7 coprocessor do in the iPad air, and what apps can use it?

    I've been trying a few 3rd party apps which use the m7 in the iPhone 5s. None of them work. Also there seem to be no apps both built in motion activity under the privacy menu in settings.
    My question is, what exactly does the M7 coprocessor in the ipad air?

    i just bought an ipad air ... what's the default 4 digit code to unlock the ipad? i had not had a chance to reset it yet

    There's no default 4 digit code.
    You need to force iPad into Recovery Mode. Follow step 1 to 6 very closely.

  • Does anybody know if the ipad air 1 is using yosemite or something different? I don't know what type of safari i should install because it disappeared from the ipad. Thanks!

    Does anybody know if the ipad air 1 is using yosemite or something different? I don't know what type of safari i should install because it disappeared from the ipad. Thanks!

    YYosemite is a Mac OS and it doesn't run on an iPad. You cannot delete or install Safari on the iPad. It is on your device somewhere.
    Swipe from screen to screen to look for it.
    Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you didn't disable it.
    You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • What do you think of the iPad Air?

    I am considering going out to buy a new iPad Air today. Can anybody tell me if they have purchased one and if it is really worth the money? I know people have different uses for them to justify a purchase, but I wanted to know if it really is aesthetically more pleasing to hold than, say, an iPad 3 (which is what I had for a year before trading it in for the value before it dropped).
    Thanks!

    I have had every version of iPad since they were introduced. I have had very little problems with them until now....with the iPad Air. I have a 32gb  version, wifi only, and since I bought it yesterday, I have had numerous low memory crashes usually when I watch a movie preview in ITunes. So far, I have tried everything to fix, soft reset, hard reset and a complete start form scratch. I may be unlucky, but it looks like I will have to return it for a refund or replacement.
    However, it is much lighter and more useable than my IPad 3; but my iPad 3 does work okay!

    I've looking for some benchmarks on both iPads with A7 chip, but I've haven't find anything related to the clock speeds (only that the iPad Air has a dual core running @ 1400 MHz). Do anyone knows the specs for the iPad mini with Retina Display?

  • What are the differences between the iPhone 6  and the iPad Air 2 camera?

    The title says it all. One of my daughters works at Apple Austin, Tx and she recently purchased the iPhone 6+. She is a wonderful photographer and has a lot of professional camera gear. I am a retired photog myself and after seeing some of her photographs I was blown away by the results from her cell phone camera.  That thing is more like a camera that happens to have a phone built in.
    So, naturally I began to wonder what the differences are between the iPhone 6+ and the iPad Air 2 camera's. Interesteding question I think. For once I thought of posting a question here before spending a few hours looking up the answer myself. But, I will visit google next.
