My son love to watch videos and play games on his iPad. He loved how much better the graphics are on the new iPad. The camera is also a lot better and the sound is very clear. There are so many upgrades on this iPad it is amazing, my son had to check something on his old iPad and he told us he...

App Availablity; Easy To Customize; Screen; Web Browsing

Charging time; Speaker Quality

Reviewers say that the iPad Air 2 is the best iPad ever, and the best tablet available, bar none. The battery lasts forever, performance is among the best of any tablet, and the huge number of tablet-optimized apps can't be beat.

Vast tablet-optimized app selection; Powerful performance; Intuitive interface; Good battery life; Incredibly thin and light

Little user customization

When we began this review 3,000 words ago, we wanted to determine whether the iPad Air 2 was as perfect in 2014 as the iPad Air was in 2013. The answer is yes. It has earned the same perfect score as its predecessor, making the iPad Air line the only two products to which we have ever awarded...

Gorgeous design; thinner and lighter than last model; tri-core CPU screams; double RAM of last model; long battery life; excellent photography for a tablet; fingerprint recognition; excellent selection of apps; still easy to use

Drawbacks will be subjective, such as a less open app ecosystem; lacks 60fps video capture of iPhone line; speaker quality reduced versus predecessor

We give this model a 9.5 out of 10 for design, a 9.8 for hardware and a 9.5 for OS and UI. The final grade is 9.6 out of 10 and this is still the best 10 inch tablet (or close) that money can buy in 2014. However, the iPad Air 1 is also a very solid buy, since the price is lower now.

slim; but solid; very light; less glare than many tablets; good battery; loud speakers; good display; good cameras; ultra fast browser; excellent hardware; fast rendering; good productivity

big bezel; long charging; back vibrates a lot; UI getting old

Item delivered on promised day. Good tracking info provided. Great buying experience.

As S21 we like incremental improvements. If a design is good, don't mess with it, we say. Apple users will appreciate the sense of continuity when upgrading from an older iPad to the Air 2.

The New iPad air 2 might still look similar to the previos one but there are many upgrades with the camera, the processor and additional features. The price is still a main concern for all, the ipad air 2 starts at 500$ and ranging up to 830$

Improved front camera; A8x Processor and latest version of iOS 8.1

no flash in the camera; very expensive

The iPad Air 2 is impressive - It's not the bold, drastic change its predecessor was. The iPad Air 2 has a Touch ID home button, A8X chipset, higher-res camera which all perform perfectly.

lack of 'game changing' technology

However, if you own any previous non-Air Apple iPad, the opposite is true – keep reading, because you have every reason to upgrade. You've held on to your old iPad long enough .

Another millimeter thinner, the new iPad Air 2 has a body that's even more befitting the ethereal moniker the iPad bears second year in a row. Outside of that little fact however, the changes may not be as easy to spot. And that's hardly a surprise.

Hardware Mute/Rotation lock switch is gone for no practical reason; No microSD slot; Pricey storage upgrades; 32GB version should be standard for the asking price; No enhanced resistance to liquids or dust; while the competition has them; Tied into iTunes for uploading most of the content; iOS UI...
