iPad Argument: what can the iPad Air 2 do that the iPad 3 can't?

[CEmajr]

Hey guys, thanks again for all your feedback.

After using the iPad Air 2 for two days I have actually returned it and gone back to my iPad 3.

It was a series of things. The device was significantly faster in terms of UI, Safari, and some game loads, but most of my apps didn't experience a huge difference. An app that took 5 seconds to load on the 3 took 4 seconds on the Air 2. The vibration was annoying and the screen was cooler than I'm used to. There was also some book spine and I didn't feel like trying multiple returns.

None of those were that bad and i did like the device, but I was honestly underwhelmed. My general reaction was "meh, it's nice" and when I'm paying just under $1,000 for something I want a better reaction. Ultimately, when I picked up the Air 2, it felt like a faster iPad 3, not a new device. Does that make sense? It's a great device, just not worth it for me. Maybe next year.

Also, I do like the reduced weight, but the Air 2 felt kind of cheap to me.

Makes sense. iPads are more like computers than phones in that people don't feel the need to upgrade them very often as their old ones can do basically everything the new models can just a little slower. That's why there are still so many iPad users on the iPad 2.
