iPad Air (2019) review

The iPad Air is a powerful and easy-to-use tablet with a large and well-specced screen, long battery life and attractive design, all at a sensible price. There are some compromises here, but as an all-round package this is vastly appealing.

Fast processor; Improved selfie camera; Lightest iPad;

Big bezels; Only supports old Apple Pencil; Slow charging;

iPad Air 3 (2019) review

The iPad Air 3 (2019) has serious horsepower hidden behind its laminated screen and uses Apple’s excellent Smart Keyboard for proper 2-in-1 for productivity. Its traditional design and first-gen Apple Pencil compatibility make it look dated, but it doubles the performance of the entry-level iPad 9.7. The ‘Air’ revival is a potential Back to School winner this year.

Brilliant-looking laminated screen; Cheapest Smart Keyboard iPad; Fast charges via Lightning-to-USB-C;

Uses the 1st Gen Apple Pencil; Traditional design doesn't wow; Two speakers instead of four
