Despite the fact that Apple is constantly absent from the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, the iPad Air won the award for the 2014’s Best Mobile Tablet.

Precision-engineered to weigh just one pound, iPad Air is 20 percent thinner and 28 percent lighter than the fourth generation iPad, and with a 43 percent narrower bezel the borders of iPad Air are dramatically thinner. iPad Air’s Retina display makes web pages, text, images and video look incredibly sharp and realistic, and the new power-efficient A7 chip allows the battery to be even smaller, helping reduce the overall volume by 24 percent from the previous generation while doubling its performance and maintaining its up to 10-hour battery life.

Judges’comments

The iPad Air packs class-leading performance in an attractive and svelte frame, while its ecosystem has an undisputed advantage in the number of format-optimized apps

Opera Mini For iPhone Is 6 Times Faster Than Safari And Should Be Accepted By Apple

The team behind Opera Mini studies the SDK and created a bypass for all the restrictions imposed by Apple, so theoretically it should be accepted into the AppStore without any problems.

A week ago we broke the news about Opera Mini coming to the iPhone. Unfortunately there is no video of the browser in action but tests performed at MWC 2010 in Barcelona proved that is 6 times faster than MobileSafari – the native iPhone browser – and the guys at Opera will send the app to Apple for review really soon.
