Apple fans should be excited for the rumored iPad Air 2 and iPad Mini 3 specs and release date!

As iPad Air 2 and iPad Mini 3 specs and release date rumors suggest on Extreme Tech, "Apple has sent out invites for a special event on October 16, where the company will almost certainly unveil this year's updates to the iPad Air and iPad Mini. The event, which is being held on the Apple campus at a much smaller venue than the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus launch, will probably also feature some updates to Apple's other product lines, such as the iMac and Apple TV. There's an outside chance that we'll see something new and crazy on October 16, like a TV set, but I think it's unlikely, considering the Apple Watch's recent debut."

If these rumors are true, tech junkies could set their eyes on the tech giant's new offerings.

But what's so special about the new iPad?

According to an iPad Air 2 and iPad Mini 3 specs and release date report from the Inquirer, "There's also talk that the two iPads will be the first to feature "anti-reflective" screens, which means you might finally be able to use an Apple tablet in bright sunlight, and both likely will arrive running Apple's iOS 8 operating system."

Aside from the visual and performance upgrades, the new iPad is also said to have a better camera with a display that boasts the same quality as a Retina display.

But, the most interesting rumor to date, is that the new iPad Air 2 will be able to support the 4K ultra-high definition TV. Because of all the fast processor upgrades suggested, it is believed that the new iPad can be hooked to any ultra-high definition TV without any problems.

Other rumors suggest that the new tablet will be waterproof as well.
