I simply love the iPad Air 2. Works smoothly and can get most of the things done. Usually when I'm away from home, I'll just bring my iPad and the charger. That's it. I'm all set. Download lecture notes for reading and get some assignments done.
No reason to change what's working, so Apple has kept a similar design for the iPad Air 2 – only it's even better.The iPad Air 2 is ludicrously thin at just6.1mm, and light, too, at 437g. That’s a whole 1.4mm slimmer and 32g lighter than last year’s tablet. It’s not an unhealthy skinny, like some Sony tablet. The iPad Air 2 is rock solid – the aluminium back feels strong and has a slight grain that makes it easy togrip.
While the new iPad still has the same footprint as the original Air ( 240x169.5mm) , just being so muchslimmer makes the new model more comfortable to hold.
