2014 Apple iPad Air 2 (9.7-inch, Wi-Fi, 16GB) - Space Gray (Renewed)

Product Information

The interface on the iPad Air 2 is something that will be familiar to anyone who's used an Apple product in the past. It was the first device (along with the iPad mini 3) to run iOS 8.1 right out of the box. The iPad Air 2 is the second-generation iPad Air tablet computer designed, developed, and marketed by Apple Inc. It was announced on October 16, 2014, alongside the iPad Mini 3, both of which were released on October 22, 2014. The iPad Air 2 is thinner, lighter and faster than its predecessor, the first-generation iPad Air, and features Touch ID with the height, width and screen size the same as the iPad Air.

This is a budget slate by Apple's standards, but still a little pricier than the aging Air 2. It goes a long way towards justifying its price tag though, with a faster chipset, a better screen and Apple Pencil support. Apple doesn't release battery size figures, but reportedly this one is 7,340mAh, which is about what we'd expect, and for most people the battery on the tablet, even if browsing the web or using the tablet as a laptop replacement, is pretty good indeed. That said, Apple has since outdone itself several times over, most recently with the A12 Bionic in the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and iPhone XR, and the A12X Bionic in the iPad Pro 11. Battery life The big change here appears to be to the battery life - it's no coincidence that the graphical capabilities of the Air 2 are 2.5x that of the Air, and that means stuff can be run more efficiently.Does the iPad Air 2's design warrant the high price tag? Yes, more than any other tablet on the market. It brings a premium build, quality finish, great looks and while it doesn't need to be this thin, the structure doesn't seem to have had an effect on the actual performance of the tablet, and does add something in the palm.

Of course, even more recently it has ditched the Air 2 entirely, so you'll be relying on third-party retailers to get it in any capacity.

There's plenty of reason to invest in this reading and web surfing-friendly tablet. Its size and shape is better suited for everything but video, and for some, that's a big plus. Like the selfie phenomenon, the idea of bringing a tablet as main camera to important events suddenly seems to be acceptable. I've seen people taking pictures of a bride walking down the aisle with an iPad mini, and missed a big goal at a football match because someone thought it the right time to try and take a picture of themselves on a tablet. I really like the improved screen, and there will probably be a few smug faces over in South Korea looking at the fact colors seem more vibrant on the new iPad Air 2, rather than focusing on natural hues.

iPad (9th generation)

The iPad Pro 9.7 looks, sounds and performs better than the iPad Air 2 in every way, though you have to look a little closer to realize any of these changes on the outside. It'll also cost you quite a lot more.
