iPad Air 2 vs iPad Air comparison review: Older tablet makes for a better deal
Källa: Tech Advisor EN→SV Archive.org version
The iPad Air 2 is thinner and lighter and has new features including the Touch ID fingerprint scanner, new processor, improved cameras and 11ac Wi-Fi. However, most of the changes won't be overly noticeable on a day-to-day basis so unless you want more than 32 GB of storage, we wouldn't blame you for sticking with your iPad Air or going for the older model to save some cash.

Galaxy Tab S vs iPad Air head-to-head review
Källa: V3.co.uk EN→SV Archive.org version
With the iPad Air having one round to the Galaxy Tab S's four, the Samsung tablet is the clear winner of this head to head review. Featuring a better display, better camera and noticeably better battery life, the Galaxy Tab S is one of the finest tablets currently available. However, with four of the rounds having resulted in draws and the iPad Air remaining the more secure option, it was a closely fought battle and the Galaxy Tab S's victory isn't too surprising considering how far through its product lifecycle the Apple tablet is.

Review: Nine months with the iPad Air
Källa: Gizmag EN→SV Archive.org version
The iPad Air is the first iPad that doesn't have any obvious room for improvement. Of course Apple will improve it before long, likely with a Touch ID fingerprint sensor and some other unknown upgrades. But we're getting to the point where the iPad doesn't really need anything else. All the most important areas – weight, thickness, screen quality, battery life and performance – are all in great shape. If you want an iPad that you won't need to upgrade for several years, then the iPad Air is a great place to start.

The iPad Air is a fantastic piece of kit. The design, build quality, performance and battery life are all superb. This will suit those wanting a device to browse the web, check emails, view documents and consume multimedia content. But the iPad Air is not going to suit everyone, particularly when it comes down to cost.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 vs iPad Air: the big tablets compared
Källa: Tech Advisor EN→SV Archive.org version
It’s too early to say which tablet is the best, as we still need to test performance, battery life and camera quality among other things. It’s clear that the Tab S 10.5 is a strong rival to the iPad Air, but for those who own other Apple products the iPad Air may remain the obvious choice.

Now, with the iPad Mini with Retina Display, you can have the same resolution and performance, so the choice you have to make really comes down to size. If you travel all of the time and want a tablet that you'll barely notice you're carrying, the iPad Mini with Retina Display is the clear choice. If you carry your tablet less often and want the benefits of a larger screen, the iPad Air is the clear winner and it's not actually that much bigger. In terms of size, price and performance the iPad Air is our favourite tablet.

The Xperia Z2 Tablet is definitely a solid rival that could cause some minor concern for Apple, so let's hope the company is innovating hard behind the scenes to launch something that enables us to write a comparison review in the future that can recommend the iPad without a shadow of a doubt, because right now, it's tricky to be completely convinced that Apple's ahead of the game.

Surface Pro 3 vs iPad Air comparison: Surface Pro is twice the device... but you'll still buy the iPad
Källa: Tech Advisor EN→SV Archive.org version
First things first: these are two outstanding devices. The iPad Air is the best 10in tablet around for media consumption, communication, games, web browsing and social media. If you want to make your commute more bearable and to surf the web while you watch TV, head for the iPad. But if you can afford it and it makes sense to you to carry only one device that is PC, tablet and laptop, the Surface Pro 3 is a truly stunning achievement.

Microsoft Surface Pro 3 vs iPad Air comparison: Can the Surface Pro 3 rival Apple's iPad Air?
Källa: Macworld.co.uk EN→SV Archive.org version
Overall, while the iPad Air and Surface Pro 3 are both tablets, they're aimed at very different audiences and are therefore difficult to directly compare. The Surface Pro 3 is designed to fit the needs of professionals who would prefer not to carry around both a laptop and a tablet. Perhaps they're creatives, or businesspeople, or even journalists. The iPad Air can cater to those audiences too, but not always entirely, and that's what Microsoft has been trying to point out (it says 96 percent of iPad owners also own a laptop). But the iPad Air is still very powerful, can achieve most day-to-day tasks, and also offers up thousands of tablet-optimised apps for your entertainment, communication, education and productivity.

iPad Air vs iPad mini 2 Retina comparison review: Which iPad is best?
Källa: Macworld.co.uk EN→SV Archive.org version
Which iPad would we recommend? Obviously that depends on your needs. If portability is top priority, the iPad mini 2 remains the best option, although the iPad Air is so much slimmer and lighter than previous 'full-size' iPads that it's close to catching up. The iPad Air can be used one-handed for quite a long time without tiring the arm, which makes it great for reading - although if that's all you want to do with your iPad, you could save some money and just get the old iPad mini (or a Kindle, at that). The A7 processor on the new iPads make them superb games machines, and ideal for photo and video editing, especially for the next few years as such apps get more demanding.

iPad Air vs Xperia Z2 Tablet comparison: thinner, lighter, faster than iPad Air - why you should choose the Xperia Z2 tablet
Källa: Tech Advisor EN→SV Archive.org version
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 cameras and so on. and they are priced the same. The main difference is that the iPad Air runs iOS7 and the Xperia Z2 Tablet runs Google's Android OS. Both have their supporters - which one are you?

iPad Air review: Apple's fast, sleek, amazingly lightweight tablet
Källa: Macworld.co.uk EN→SV Archive.org version
The iPad Air is the finest tablet currently available to humanity. But the same was once true of the iPad 4; is this enough of an improvement to warrant an upgrade? The Air has two main advantages over the iPad 4: it's slimmer and lighter, and it's faster. The former is an appealing upgrade, since the iPad 4 can tire the arm when used one-handed, particularly for reading. But the latter won't make much difference for most users right now, since the iPad 4 is already more than powerful enough to deal with current apps. If you're on the iPad 3 or earlier, on the other hand, the Air is a no-brainer: a gossamer-light, gorgeous-looking, Lightning-compatible tablet with a super-fast processor and a decent price tag. Five months on we remain delighted with the iPad Air, its sleek looks and its super-slick performance.

iPad Air vs iPad 4 comparison review: Which is the best full-size iPad?
Källa: Macworld.co.uk EN→SV Archive.org version
If you're on the iPad 3 or earlier, the iPad Air is a highly appealing buy, and a bit of a bargain, we'd say. But paying the same price all over again a year (or less) after shelling out for the iPad 4 may be less clear-cut, unless you're flush with cash. Do you find your arm aching after using your iPad 4? If you find this annoying, the iPad Air is the answer to your prayers. But for us - and, we'd guess, for most users - arm ache is only an occasional annoyance, and not really worth spending upwards of 400 quid all over again.

100% Apple iPad Air review
Källa: Expert Reviews EN→SV Archive.org version
There's no doubting that with the iPad Air Apple has made its best tablet so far. It's absolutely beautiful to look at, has a stunningly fast processor, excellent battery life and an amazing touchscreen. While the iPad 4 is far from out-of-date, the power and size on offer here could be compelling enough of a reason to upgrade. For most people, we think the hardest decision is going to be one of size, and whether they should buy the iPad Air or the smaller, but identically specced, iPad Mini with Retina Display. It's a tough call and the incredibly lightness and slim case of the iPad Air may just swing it for the larger tablet: it's something we'd happily carry everywhere. It's our new Ultimate award-winning tablet and the best you can get.

Even though the iPad Air scored an impressive five stars when we reviewed it on release last year, since then the market has moved on and having won four of our nine rounds to the iPad Air’s three, we’ve got to give the best enterprise tablet award out of these two devices to the Samsung Galaxy Note 12.2in. However, with two of the rounds resulting in draws the battle has been a close one and both tablets certainly have merit in the workplace. The Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 offers users a sizeable display, an array of productivity-focused applications and services, a robust battery life and a useful S Pen stylus. But to counter this, the iPad Air boasts a more travel-friendly design, more robust security and is significantly cheaper.

80% iPad Air review - latest iPad is great, but is the iPad still the best tablet?
Källa: Tech Advisor EN→SV Archive.org version
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 premium feel of preceding generations of iPad. The iOS 7 interface, not popular with every user, cannot be avoided on this device and it suffers some stickiness in app zooming. Ultimately though the iPad Air will suceed by simple nature of its new weight – the lose of almost 200g is so significant to its handling, and means it could encroach on E Ink ebook readers; only with the power and versatility, not to mention gorgeous colour screen, of a real iPad.

iPad mini 2 Retina vs iPad Air comparison review: Which new iPad should I buy?
Källa: Macworld.co.uk EN→SV Archive.org version

If portability is top priority, the iPad mini 2 is still the best option, although the iPad Air is so slim and light that it's close to catching up; the iPad Air can be used one-handed for quite a long time without tiring the arm, which makes it great for reading - although if that's all you want to do with your iPad, you could save some money and just get the old iPad mini. The A7 processor on the new iPads make them superb games machines, and ideal for photo and video editing, especially for the next few years as such apps get more demanding. But the iPad Air has the larger screen to go with those activities - we'd rather edit movies on a 9.7in screen, and games are more immersive on the larger device. Hopefully we've summarised the strengths and weaknesses of Apple's new iPads effectively, but our last word would be this: if you heart is set on one of the new iPads, is portability or the screen your first priority? The two lines have got closer on both fronts, but the iPad Air remains the best option for a stunning visual experience, while the iPad mini 2 is a great buy if you want to slip a fast, powerful computing device in a handbag or rucksack pocket.

70% Apple iPad Air Review
Källa: Tech2.in.com EN→SV Archive.org version
The Apple iPad Air starts at Rs 35,900 for the 16GB, Wi-Fi model and we feel this is a bit too much for what’s on offer. The drastic weight loss and new internals aside, we don’t see why someone would buy the Air instead of the 32GB iPad mini with Retina. Not only are you getting double the capacity but it’s spec-for-spec identical to its larger sibling. We’ve also seen that 16GB is simply not enough for iPad apps and your media files, so there’s another problem. If Apple had fitted a better camera (8MP iSight from the iPhone 5) and Touch ID (from the 5s), then there would be a better distinction between the two tablets and perhaps, the high starting price of the Air could be justified. Overall, if really must have the extra 1.9-inches of the Air, then go for it but we strongly suggest you get the equally well equipped 32GB iPad mini with Retina for the same price.

This is truly the new iPad we've wanted for a long time, at least as far as the design and form factor is concerned. With the iPad Mini, it was clear that Apple's focus would be on improving the portability and use comfort.

For yet another year Apple has secured its place as king of the 10in tablet space. However, given the fact that the Nexus 10 is over a year old at this point, this isn't really all that surprising. We're amazed that the Nexus 10 managed to stack up as well as it did against Apple's new iPad Air given its age. We can't wait to see what Google has up its sleeve for the next Nexus 10, and, given the ongoing usefulness of its original, it will undoubtedly be impressive.

90% Apple iPad Air: The TechSpot Review
Källa: Techspot EN→SV Archive.org version
The display on the iPad Air is no longer the highest resolution panel found on a tablet but it continues to look as good as ever. I have zero complaints with the IPS display as colors and text were sharp and vivid while brightness remained a strong point. The 4:3 aspect ratio will still cause some to gripe compared to 16:9 offerings that are more suited to video and the outdoor performance isn’t anything to write home about. Either way, I suspect this screen will continue to be used in future iPads as there’s simply nothing wrong with it. If you’re looking to pick up a full-sized tablet this holiday season, the iPad should be near the top of your list if Android isn’t a priority for you. In the event you already own an iPad, an upgrade to the Air should be a justifiable investment should you have the third generation tablet or older. If you’re rocking the fourth generation, I would probably stick with it until next year’s model shows up.

It perhaps will come as little surprise that the iPad Air has won in a head-to-head review over its predecessor, the iPad 4, but is it worth the upgrade? We think so.

The iPad was already the best large tablet out there. If it had any deficiencies, it was really in terms of weight and size, and that’s where the iPad Air shines. It’s still got a battery that will last for 10 hours, and now it’s twice as fast as it was before, opening the door for even more apps that can boost personal productivity or just entertain you that much faster. It’s right there in the name: The iPad Air is still an iPad, but it’s lighter and thinner and twice as fast to boot. If you want a tablet you can comfortably hold with one hand, look elsewhere. Otherwise, look no further than the iPad Air.

The iPad Air features an impressively slender form factor and, thanks largely to its A7 processor and optimizations in iOS 7, it still manages to perform twice as fast and deliver just as much battery life as its predecessor. In fact, Apple’s latest tablet, as it exists, is definitely one of the best (if not the best) tablet out there right now. However, I can’t help but feel that it could be even better. Where’s my TouchID? How about a bigger, better camera on this late 2013 tablet? I suppose this opens the opportunity for an iPad Pro, with such premium features. Or just next year’s Air. But I can’t help but want them now.

While it offered a slight bump in performance, and likely aided the improvement in battery life, the iTunes App Store is still desolate when it comes to 64-bit optimised apps. The only real improvement – besides the slightly better performance and battery life – is its design, and the new-look thin and light tablet makes it worth the upgrade.

Apple's new iPad Air is impressive small considering the features and performance that it manages to pack into it. The design mimics that introduced by the Mini but it still feels incredibly well built and solid. Performance has received a significant boost and the battery life is still one of the best available on the market.

The iPad Air isn't going to please everyone, but it'll please most people. Just as there's more than one great computer, there can be more than one great tablet: The slender iPad Air lifting its touch-centric apps up on a pedestal, the simple Kindle Fire helping everyone along, and the businesslike Windows tablets shuttling their Office documents and Photoshop files. As with the iPhone 5S, Apple is trying to make both the hardware and the OS step into the background here, so you can better enjoy the apps. The best iPad, Apple implies, is one that disappears.

Hands on: iPad Air review
Källa: Techradar EN→SV Archive.org version
It's hard to put into words how much Apple has improved the iPad, offering a stunning level of detail and power with a build quality that's unrivalled. But the reduction in thickness, and especially weight could well ensure that the iPad Air is the finest tablet on the market. We can't wait to get our hands on one for longer and really put it through its paces - stick around for our in-depth review, which we'll bring you in the very near future,

At just over 1 pound, not only is the Apple iPad Air lighter than the competition, but it outshines, outperforms and lasts longer than similarly priced tablets. Plus, the Retina display looks as crisp as ever, and you get valuable productivity and content-creation apps for free. Apple's huge tablet app advantage versus Android also shouldn't be overlooked.

The iPad Air is the no-compromise tablet. Beautiful display, crisp design, premium build quality: it’s the gold-standard by which tablets are judged, and rightly so. If Apple’s full-sized slates had fallen into the shadow of their mini brethren over the past twelve months, the iPad Air brings the larger tablet right back into the spotlight.

Calling this the iPad Air could be seen as a gimmick: a marketing ploy designed to invoke the excitement of an all-new product, when in fact so much is carried over from previous iPads. But the truth is that the iPad Air is every bit the dramatic update its name suggests.

Surprise: the iPad Air is the best iPad we've reviewed. In addition, though, it's also the most comfortable 10-inch tablet we've ever tested. Not every manufacturer can produce a thin and light device without also making it feel cheap or flimsy, but Apple nailed it. Factor in a sizable boost in performance and battery life, and the Air is even more compelling.

Our reviewer's mind was put at rest by a brief hands-on with the new tablet: "The iPad Air feels solid enough - despite its low weight, it was sufficiently stiff to set our minds at rest concerning 'snapping accidents'.

Imagination PowerVR G6430:

PowerVR G6430 från Imagination Technologies är en snabb mobil grafiklösning som används i ARM-kretsar som Apple A7 (iPhone 5S). Chippet finns tillgängligt sedan slutet av 2013 och var en av de snabbaste lösningarna av sin klass vid tidpunkten för lanseringen.

Arkitektur och prestanda 

GPU:n är baserad på Series 6 (Rogue) och har fyra kluster med två TMUs var och en skalär Unified Shader-arkitektur. Chippet levererar dubbelt så hög prestanda som SGX543MP3 från Apple A6 vid samma klockfrekvens. Den exakta klockfrekvensen har bekräftats entydigt, men bör vara högre än 400 MHz (resulterar i mer än 100 GFLOPS). En jämförelse med andra mobila grafiklösningar visar att G6430 bara är något långsammare än surfplatteversionen av Adreno 330, vilket innebär att den var den snabbaste GPU:n i sin klass vid lanseringen. Även mycket krävande mobila spel kan spelas utan problem (2013). Bland annat stöds GPU OpenGL 3.x/4.x, OpenGL ES 3.0 och DirectX 10. 

Energiförbrukning 

Tillverkaren utformade PowerVR G6430 som en jämförelsevis "bred" krets för att uppnå hög prestanda och hög energieffektivitet samtidigt. Som ett resultat kan kretsen även användas i mindre smartphones som iPhone 5S. Emellertid upptar den ett relativt stort område på kretsen.

Bara vissa äldre spel kan spelas flytande med de här grafikkorten. Kretsar med delat minne har fördelen att de utvecklar mindre värme och ger längre batteritid. De duger gott för kontorsbruk, surfande och enklare bildbehandling, men spel och HD-video är inte i syftet med de här kretsarna.

9.70": Den här skärmstorleken används för mindre surfplattor.

Större skärmar möjliggör högre upplösning så att detaljer som bokstäver blir större och jämnare. Å andra sidan är strömförbrukningen lägre med mindre skärmar och enheterna är överlag mindre, lättare och billigare. » För att ta reda på mer om skärmupplösning, läs vår DPI-lista.

91.17%: Det här är ett mycket bra betyg då det finns få modeller med ett högre. I de allra flesta fall är betyget lägre.
