iPad Air

 

The best 10-inch tablet by a margin

Very light ; Robust and premium design ; Excellent screen ; Solid battery life ; Consummate all-rounder

Storage comes at a premium ; No Touch ID

iPad Air review

 

It's no longer king, but the Air is still an excellent choice

Sleek design ; Powerful innards ; Great suite of free apps

No TouchID ; Camera features lacking ; 16GB version is too small

Want the best tablet on the market? Then get the iPad Air. It's got a stunning design, powerful innards and a superb suite of apps. It's as near to tablet perfection as you're going to get.

iPad Air review

 

Apple's old challenger gets a lower price point - is it still worth the cash?

Size and weight reduction ; Faster 64-bit processor ; Better battery life

No slo-mo video recording ; No 8MP rear camera upgrade ; Price

Apple iPad Air

 

With improvements everywhere, the iPad Air is a stunning piece of technology that's a joy to use

Crisper picture with brighter whites and better blacks ; More open, dynamic and subtler sound ; Faster and more powerful ; Beautiful build ; Great selection of apps ; Good battery life

Camera’s colours aren’t as natural as before ; Slimmer bezel means more thumbs on screen

The 10in tablet market is sparsely populated, with Apple having a comfortable dominance over similar-sized tablets from the likes of Samsung and Google. It’s biggest rival, then, is the iPad Mini.

Apple iPad Air review

 

The iPad Air is the latest tablet to arrive in Apple's range. It's adopted the Air name, just like the MacBook Air, to show off its thin and light stature. No Apple iPad 5 branding to be found here even though, in essence, the Air is the fifth...

Thinner, lighter, faster, iLife and iWork apps are great, truly desirable tablet

Same camera as iPad 4, no 802.11 ac, can't realise 64-bit speed yet

Apple has done it again: the iPad Air is a tablet better than the last iPad. Simply put the iPad Air is the best iPad the company has ever made. It's light, it's thin, it's fast, it's amazing.

Oh how we hate being a cliché sometimes. Yes, it's true, having held the new iPad Air in our hands we can confirm that its lightness is what will convince

iPad Air vs Xperia Z2 Tablet comparison review

 

The iPad no longer has the tablet market to itself. As 7in Androids such as the Nexus 7 and Tesco Hudl offer cheaper but acceptable alternatives to the iPad mini, market share declines even as tablet sales go up. But the iPad Air remains the king of...

Ultimately it is a matter of personal preference. Both these tablets stand head and shoulders above the rest of the 10in tablet world. They are thin and light, well made, designed and built. They offer great displays and excellent performance, decent...

Apple iPad Air review

 

With all due respect to Microsoft and the makers of tablet PCs over the 20 years preceding its launch, the iPad was the tablet that invented the current tablet market. It's been with us a few years, but the iPad remains for many the byword for quality...

In many respects a triumph, the iPad Air also introduces compromises to hit the low-weight/thin-case targets. Sound quality through the new stereo speaker has deteriorated, and although a matter of taste we found the iPad mini-style case loses the...

Apple iPad Air video review: it's all about the weight

 

Foremost, the iPad Air is about lightness. We tried a 128GB model with 4G and on the scales this – the heaviest possible version of the iPad Air – weighs just 478g, and is only 7.5mm thick. If you've used any previous full-size iPad, you'll notice...
