iPad iPad Air screen feels like plastic

[George Waseem]

I have an iPad 4 which is still fast and good even though it's 2 years old. I went to a nearby electronics store and i found the iPad Air, I tried it and i felt that the screen feels so plastic and feels so cheap, I was curious to know if all iPad air's screens have the same problem, cause I tried the iPad 4 and iPad Air 2 and they didn't feel like the air ??

All iPad Air (1) feel the same. If you don't like the one you tried at that electronic store then you won't like any of them.

I didn't particularly like that either but it wasn't the reason I returned mine.

I didn't know the screen feels so plastic. I have no problem with Air 1 so far.

That's because the device feels hollow. The Air 2 feels solid just like the Mini.

Yep, the plastic feeling to the Air 1 screen can be annoying at times.

Just the price we pay for Apple's need for thin!

I have the iPad Air 2 which is the first iPad I've owned myself. Got it as a birthday present just over a month ago and I absolutely love it. I only handled an Air (1) once before and just know I am very happy with getting the Air 2. Feels terrific IMO (and looks it, too!)
