Screen improvements (anti-glare limits reflections), even more power, thinner design, TouchID integrated, best iPad camera yet
No curved glass from the iPhone 6 range, camera could be better still, lock/rotation switch absent, original iPad Air remains strong

Abstract: The original iPad Air was a remarkable machine: so light it ceased to notice in a bag, so slim that it really lived up to the marketing hype of being a sheet of glass in your hand. Customers, Apple crowed, reported 100 per cent satisfaction.So how to ...

Too similar to the iPad Air, No microSD card slot, Expensive for larger storage sizes

The iPad Air 2 has a great balance of size and weight. Crisp, bright display. iOS 9 runs perfectly, including split-screen apps
Priced relatively high for a tablet; single speaker isn't that loud compared to iPad Pro
The iPad Air 2 is a nice refinement and finesse of last year's model, with a bevy of tweaks, enhancements, a much faster processor, and the welcome addition of Touch ID. Simply put: it's still the gold standard for tablets....

Abstract: While we got our probing hands all over Apple's new lighter, thinner, more TouchID-ier iPad Air 2 tablet for a good half an hour at the Berlin launch event last week, our review sample appears, rather unfortunately, to still be in the post. Or maybe Gera...
Upgraded screen, Slimmer design, Super speedy processor
16GB is a little low on space, No mute switch
The iPad Air 2 is the best tablet ever created - and that's not us getting excited over an Apple product for the sake of it.From the amazing engineering that got this thing so thin and yet still feeling so premium, to the A8X chip which has given the tabl...
When you've got a tablet as impressive as the iPad Air, then creating a lust-worthy sequel is no mean feat. The iPad Air was a great tablet for a number of reasons: the design was slimmer, felt nicer in the hand thanks to the "ceramic" feel, and it was th...

Abstract: In Cupertino today, Apple presented the products it's hoping we'll splash out on this Christmas. In what is likely to be the company's last big presentation this year, CEO Tim Cook revealed two new iPads and a new iMac with a remarkably high-resolution sc...
Screen doesn't reflect much, Great performance, Ultra-slim design, Improved camera
Battery life a little lower, 16GB version storage too low
The iPad Air 2 is another triumph for Apple. The design and screen have improved in all the right ways, and the new A8X processor is nothing short of astonishing. This is still the best large tablet around.Next, read our Best Android Tablets Round-up...
