iPad Air (2020) review: has an excellent screen, very fast processor, and is compatible with iPad Pro accessories, but it's expensive and has no 128GB option

Despite the higher cost, this iPad is the one to get  —  If you're looking to get an iPad right now and can afford it …

    function over form on the iPhone via @robotodd: 'I asked Apple about the throwback design, which is similar to 2010′s iPhone 4 (and current iPad Pro and iPad Air) with flat edges and sharper corners. Apple said it helps the phone's durability if it drops' https://www.cnbc.com/...

    The new iPad Air is almost an iPad Pro, and at a lower price than we've seen most of its features before. Add a Magic Keyboard and it's also Apple's cheapest laptop. My review at @bleedsixcolors: https://sixcolors.com/...

    Apple's iPad Air 2020 — I've been testing it for the past week, and it's great. Almost enough for me to do all my daily work on (even video editing). But I'm not sure it's a better buy than just the 11-inch iPad Pro 2020. Video review: https://www.youtube.com/... https://twitter.…

    I started my time with the iPad Air skeptical whether or not Apple's tablet lineup needed three distinct models. I now have an answer. Here's my review of the 2020 iPad Air https://www.zdnet.com/...

    I also compared the iPad Air to another iPad that's *very* similar to it: the 11" iPad Pro. Spot the differences. https://www.macstories.net/... https://twitter.com/...

    I've been using the new iPad Air for the last week- it's great. I don't miss the iPad Pro at all. But for its price, considering accessories, you might still want to consider the 8th gen iPad for performance value. https://www.cnet.com/...

    In my review, I focused on the big change in this new iPad Air model: Touch ID built into the top button. Here's how it works and my thoughts on the new button. https://www.macstories.net/... https://twitter.com/...

    Okay I am very jealous that in my years reviewing tablets, I never thought of this analogy @nicnguyen has in her iPad Air review. “Tablets are like sporks: part mobile phone, part computer—not quite crushing either job.” https://www.wsj.com/...

    I think Apple really did a great job with this feature—but on the iPad I still prefer Face ID! I hadn't processed just how many interactions I was skipping until I had to touch every time I wanted to unlock something. Would love this on an iPhone though. https://twitter.com/...

    Here's my review of the new 2020 iPad Air. It is fast and good. Some of you will want to know if you should get it instead of a base iPad. You should if you can afford it. Some of you will just want to see @vjeranpavic's cat on the video. Good news! https://www.theverge.com/... h…

    If you want a small tablet, the 2019 iPad Mini remains the best you can get: great display, speedy performance, and the expected convenience of iPadOS: https://arstechnica.com/... It's also one of our favorite #Apple products deals for #PrimeDay 2020: https://arstechnica.com/... …
