Apple recently there are a number of tablets iPad Air updated two years ago. This week he ended it for good and introduced The iPad, which is almost identical to its older siblings, just doesn't carry the name AirThere are some differences, however. So let's take a look at all three devices and compare them in this article.

Let's face it, if you already have any of the Airs, upgrading to a new model is not really worth it. If you have an iPad 4 and older, then it's time to consider changing your device. By the way, owners of iPads 4 and older make up 30% of the user base. This is a relatively high proportion, considering that owners Airis only 5% more.

Original iPad Air It is the only one of the three compared that does not support Wi-Fi 802.11ac. Since this standard is mainly used by IT enthusiasts, it is not a reason for a "normal" home user to change the device. What you will definitely welcome, however, is a better rear camera compared to the first Airu. iPad Air 2 and the newly introduced iPad (2017) both have 8MP cameras.

Most of you already know that the new iPad is different from the previous one. AirIt's thicker and has also gained weight. This change is likely due to the larger battery that the new iPad contains. How much will the battery life change on a single charge after implementing a larger battery and changing the processor (iPad Air 2 has a triple-core processor, while the new iPad has a dual-core processor (it will only be revealed in time).

The new iPad's better specs also lead to better performance. The performance difference compared to the first Airu is significant, compared to Airbut there is a performance shift in 2 miniThe new iPad achieves its best performance using a single core, with multi-core performance comparable to a triple-core iPad Air 2. It should be noted that the benchmarks listed in the table are from the iPhone SE, which has an A9 processor running at 1,8 GHz. However, the processor in the new iPad is said to run at 1,85 GHz. However, we don't expect this change to make a big difference.

iPad Air It has essentially the same display as the iPad 3 and 4 – multitouch with LED backlighting and a scratch-resistant layer covered with glass. iPad Air The 2 relies on a fully laminated display (three layers in one) with an added anti-reflective coating. The new iPad has reverted to the older LED-backlit display design with a glass cover. In theory, this should make the new iPad easier to repair.

The new iPad excels in some aspects, but falls short in others when compared to the iPad Air 2 behind. The choice to buy or not to buy is now up to each of you. Owners of any generation of iPad Air they don't have too many reasons to upgrade and can currently see a decent return on investment. Apple practically introduced the same device that has been with us since the end of 2014. The refresh cycle of iPads is thus very similar to the cycle of computers, we also usually use them for 2 years or more.
