iPad Air based on M2 processor was presented back in early May, and its characteristics were announced during the premiere. But suddenly the description of the device on Apple's website changed, not for the better and without any official announcement. The updated specs page states that the new iPad in both sizes received a 9-core graphics chip. That said, the release and support page still lists a 10-core solution, which is what was announced during the presentation. Apple itself did not announce any changes, so the reason for the adjustment of specifications is unknown. It is noteworthy that this is the first Apple M2 processor on the market with nine cores “built in”. According to the portal 9To5Mac, the unusual configuration of the GPU may be due to a defect in the chips: one core was presumably disabled due to the defects identified, which did not allow the platform to fully work.
