So, the hero of today's review-the iPad Air 2. Try to identify all the strengths of the device along with the disadvantages, taking into account the opinions of experts and feedback of ordinary users.

Design

The Second generation of “air”, as mentioned above, looks almost the same as the first. The company often uses the good practices in terms of design, that is, until recently - but why refuse what is more perfect?

Apple iPad Air 2 has a new Touch ID module, the microphone hole on the front side near the camera and a new variety colours – gold, in addition to the traditional gray and white shades.

The Company loves the presentations of their rulers to compare new and old, so we will not deviate from the familiar to the brand performance. The first “air” weighed nearly 700 grams with a thickness of 13.5 mm, the new Apple iPad Air 2 has a mass of 440 g with a thickness of 6 mm. Agree, the difference is enormous, and if you take both tablets in your hands, you will immediately feel where everything is.

Any revolutionary or original design of the steps from the company should not wait. This revolution – when year after year the device is improved, and pay attention to the criticism or the market situation is not necessary. Let the same “Samsung” will make four times the prevailing gadget, while “Apple” the company will release the usual model, but slightly lighter, thinner, and more productive – thanks to her for stability.

Summing up

A New gadget from the venerable company is very good, both themselves and the inner filling. Although many people will not see visual difference of two generations, “air” and “air 2” are as different as heaven and earth. The new model has an improved display, lighter body and less significant performance improvements, the new Touch ID module, other color and great camera.

Generally Speaking, the tablet is invested in his money, but does it make sense to change the past generations to the new – this is another question, like, good deed goes unpunished. All depends on the purpose which you are expecting, and financial condition: can afford – buy, will not regret that's for sure. In any case, if you have no Apple devices, “air 2” – this is a great option to start your acquaintance with the products of the company.

The Only thing to warn the future owner of the device – it fakes that flooded the market premium gadgets, and sometimes to understand where the original, where Chinese goods is very difficult. So try to give preference to reputable Internet sites or brand phone stores, who cared for his reputation.
