What it is

The Apple iPad Air 2 is a 9.7-inch Wi-Fi tablet with 16GB storage and 2GB RAM running iOS 14. Its A8X processor and M8 coprocessor deliver 40% faster CPU and 2.5 times graphics performance versus the previous model. Weighing 0.96 lb and measuring 0.24 inches thick, it suits students and mobile professionals needing a light, capable iOS device.

Display and security

The 2048 x 1536 Retina IPS panel at 264 ppi uses an anti-reflective coating that cuts glare by 56%. A single-layer design removes internal reflectance for richer colours and sharper images. Touch ID fingerprint sensor unlocks the tablet and authorises purchases in iTunes, iBooks and the App Store.

Connectivity limit

This unit is Wi-Fi only with 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac MIMO reaching up to 866 Mbps plus Bluetooth 4.0. It has no cellular modem, so buyers who need always-on data away from hotspots must look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Will the 16 GB flash storage need upgrading later?

The 16 GB flash storage is fixed and cannot be expanded; if you need more space you must rely on cloud services or external wireless drives.

What limits sustained performance of the A8X 1.5 GHz chip?

Under continuous load the A8X 1.5 GHz processor will throttle to manage heat because the 9.4 x 6.6 x 0.24 inch chassis has no active cooling.

How much heat and noise does the tablet produce during all-day use?

The fanless design makes it silent; the thin 0.24 inch aluminium body gets warm but stays comfortable to hold during extended sessions.
