Apple iPad Air (2019) Review

The iPad Air excels in entertaining but is also a reliable companion for professionals.

Excellent 10.5-inch screen; Fantastic performance; Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard support; Great battery life; Helpful multitasking features

Dull design; Fast charging cable and adapter not included; No second-gen Apple Pencil support

Apple iPad Air 2019 review: happy medium

There sure are a lot of different iPads now. Last week's announcement of a new iPad Air and iPad mini means that Apple's tablet lineup includes five different screen sizes, each of which has its own storage or LTE options on top of that.

Fast processor; Excellent screen; Keyboard connector

First-gen Apple Pencil support only; Speakers only on one side; Touch ID isn't as convenient as Face ID

The 10.5-inch iPad Air (2019) is almost the 10.5-inch iPad Pro (2017), minus a few features and for a much lower price.
