Without question, the iPad Air is Apple's best full-sized (9.7-inch) iPad ever. With every generation, Apple has iterated its tablet without fail, slimming it down, improving its display, increasing its CPU and GPU performance. The list goes on and on. Th...

Abstract: There are useful changes inside, too. The iPad Air is powered by the same new chip (called the A7) that makes the iPhone 5s so fast. And it's a 64-bit chip, which, according to Apple, means smoother animation in 3-D games. All told, Apple says that the ne...

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. Its perfo...
Excellent Display, Masses of power, Gorgeous design, Lightweight, Vast ecosystem, Improved Imaging, More memory
No NFC, Battery is smaller than previous generation (not that you'll notice)
The iPad Air was one of our favourite tablets of 2013 and its follow-up, the iPad Air 2, is even better. However, if you're an iPad Air user and happy, we don't really see too much point in updating just yet. This is for those that have never owned an iPa...

When I saw this getting unveiled onstage, I was nonplussed. Better screen? A bit thinner? I needed to be convinced. Then I held it, and I really was, It's not just lighter, it's perceptibly lighter. I'll regret writing this in a year's time, but I think t
The 16GB option is still too small for Retina HD apps, as they'll munch through your capacity in no time at all, Add to that the increased space a 64-bit app will take and if you're thinking of nabbing a load of high-power apps (which you should want to,

The 16GB option was too small, but Apple has now ditched that giving you 32GB and 128GB models which suit this slate much better and makes the entry level option far more approachable, The dislikes are beyond nitpicking: the slow motion video is capped at

The iPad 2017 is an unexpectedly cheap offering, but one that is also generally low-specced and has a design that's mostly lifted from a product that's two and a half years old, and in some cases from one that's three and a half years old. It's all rather...
