This iPad is the most exciting boring update to a product we’ve ever seen.
It’s the replacement for the iPad Air 2 at the lower-price end of Apple’s 10-inch tablet range, and doesn’t include any fancy new tricks, or features we’ve never seen before, or anything like that. What it does is take a great tablet, make it a little bit faster, a little bit cheaper, and give it even better battery life. It’s more of the same, and when the same is a fantastic tablet, we’re good with that.
These upgrades come with a surprising downside: it’s thicker and heavier than the iPad Air 2. It’s pretty weird to see Apple add bulk to a product given its near fetish-level obsession with all things thin and light, but this iPad is the same 469g weight and 7.5mm thickness of the original iPad Air. That’s a weight increase of just 32g, and a more noticeable 1.4mm thickness. While we admit to being kind of obsessed with our tech being the smallest, thinnest designs possible, even we have to admit that this is… fine, really.
