Apple iPad Air 2 Review: Should You Upgrade?
Most are in agreement that Apple's iPad Air 2 is one of the finest tablets ever produced, if not the best out there, period. Certainly, it's not difficult to make that case -- after all, the latest 9.7-inch iPad is thinner than its predecessor at just 6.1mm thick, wicked fast with its custom A8X...
Pros:
- Slimmer than a shaved pencil
- lighter than a pound
- Sleek design and now comes in gold
- Fast A8X SoC
- 2GB of RAM
- and new storage tiers
- Upgraded cameras are finally worth talking about
- Lots of little upgrades
- such as the Touch ID sensor and barometer
- Yet again
- pricing remains the same
- 1-year...
Cons:
- While battery life is as advertised
- it's less than the previous iPad Air
- Isn't built for productivity
- C'mon Apple
- start including Beats earphones

The iPad Air 2 takes the title (from Apple's original Air) of Best Tablet You Can Buy. The updates aren't enough to force an upgrade from a 2013 Air, but it'll feel like a tablet from another planet if you're still using an original iPad or iPad 2, or an early Android.
Pros:
- Somehow
- even thinner than ever
- Very snappy performance
- thanks to A8X chip upgrade
- Fingerprint login
- Better cameras
Cons:
- The familiar iPad-family gripes (no MicroSD card slot
- reliance on iTunes
- Rear camera lacks a flash
- Physical mute/orientation-lock switch has been eliminated

Pros:
- Incredibly fast A8X processor makes everything feel more immediate
- Same great battery life
- Easier to see in bright sunlight
- Comes in gold

Cons:
- 16GB isn't enough storage for the entry level model
- Otherwise it's the same as last year's

Apple iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3
The form-factor didn't change since last year's redesign, but even though the iPad Air 2 is slimmer than its predecessor, Apple didn't sacrifice battery life. The company claims up to 10 hours using Wi-Fi, and in three battery rundown tests I averaged 10 hours and 14 minutes of continuously watching...
Pros:
- Incredibly fast A8X processor makes everything feel more immediate
- same great battery life

iPad Air 2 review
Besides the Touch ID fingerprint feature, the screen assembly and uprated processor are the headline features. New cameras are a bonus too. Overall the Apple iPad Air 2 is the best tablet you can buy, even though it’s been discontinued by Apple.

Great!
It's a very good device. It's fast moving all the apps, and it has got a very good display. Also, the price is very important, but nowadays it is not expensive, so if you want an iPad, you should buy it!

Apple iPad Air 2 review: Slimmer and faster, but a smaller battery
Smartphone and tablet vendors seem to be locked in an arms race to build the thinnest possible devices at the moment, with the current thinnest smartphone - the Oppo R5 - being so skeletal at 4.85mm that it can't even accommodate a 3.5mm audio jack.
Pros:
- Thin
- light and elegant design
- Excellent build quality
- Excellent performance
- Low-reflectivity Retina HD display
- Touch ID support
- Improved iSight and FaceTime HD cameras
Cons:
- Lower-capacity battery than the 2013 iPad Air
- No MicroSD storage expansion
