i was browsing Geekbench again this morning and saw a new model pop up with a curious result.
So far we’ve seen iPad8,8 with 6GB RAM and iPad 8,3 with 4GB RAM. But I just found an iPad 8,2 with 6GB of RAM. What do you guys make of this?

Can anyone decode how these model identifiers are working? Is it possible that LTE models are getting more RAM or something? Only thing I could find was Wikipedia listing iPad 8,1 through 8,4 as iPad Pro 11” and iPad8,5 through 8,8 as 12.9” third gen. But that’s also Wikipedia so who knows. Seems like they map to 64, 256, 512, and 1024GB. But why would iPad 8,2 have more RAM then? If model identifier doesn’t correlate with LTE, but the 256GB model is iPad 8,2 and the 512GB model is iPad 8,3 then what exactly is going on here? Is it maybe an LTE thing too?
