Battery life is less than last year's model, Softer quality with low lighting photo & video capture
Apple certainly hits it on the mark with the iPad Air 2, seeing that it receives all the incremental upgrades we'd commonly expect to find on any successive device. It's thinner, lighter, and more powerful than ever before, while still being treated to an...

A thinner, slightly lighter version of Apple's 9.7” iPad, which was already impressively thin and light in last year's iPad Air. New 8MP rear iSight camera also adds burst mode shooting and slomo video recording. New display with antireflective coating im
Smaller battery causes a significant drop in battery life, falling hours behind the previous iPad Air (and earlier iPads) in certain tests. Rear camera, though improved, lags behind iPhone 6/6 Plus. Though thinner, the footprint may still feel too large f

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....

After a year tied with the iPad mini, the iPad Air 2 has reclaimed the 9.7-inch iPad's spot as the flagship of Apple's tablet range. Easier to hold, faster, with a better display, and yet with no noticeable penalty in battery life, the iPad Air 2 takes wh...
Very thin and light. Extremely fast processor. Best app design and selection of any platform. Cellular models can be switched between wireless carriers in software.
Expensive. Battery life is just okay
The iPad Air 2 balances seamless ease of use, app abundance, and raw power in its ever-so-slender frame, continuing Apple's reign atop the tablet heap....
Terrific display, So very thin, Great battery life, Super fast
No multiuser support, No multitasking, Safari icon still objectively terrible
