I can't seem to put it down. It's so awesome I'm spending too much time on it. And the battery just keeps going and going, and my hand doesn't get tired holding it. My MacBook Air and iPhone 6 are feeling neglected.

It's serious. I need help.
 
Refreshing after all the #Smudgegate, #Distortiongate, #Vibrategate, #Batterygate, #IHateEverythingGate....
 
I opened this expecting to problem solve and instead wasted my time. You shouldn't be misleading like that.

On the other hand, yes it is very cool!

:) Sorry but that was the point.

After so many #gate threads, I wanted to throw out there another "problem". You hang out here long enough and you begin to think Apple only makes garbage.

The Air 2 is awesome.
 
I'm having a similar issue. No matter how hard I try to get the battery down to 0%, it would barely budge! I'm streaming music, playing games, streaming hi-def video, browsing the web, and looking at my Twitter which are supposed to drain battery. I'm trying very hard! I currently have 8 hours and 40 minutes of usage with 33% remaining, and if I did the math correctly, that should bring me to 13 hours which is against Apple's claim! #batterygate :mad:

Take it back. :p
 
I think Air 2 is easily the best iPad, even if it doesn't match the leap Air made.

It definitely is a nice toy

Start a design on your Mac using Pixelmator.

Pick up the iPad. It is right where you left it and you can continue your work on the go.

May be a toy to you but many use it for actual work.

I was asking the exact same question today. #plebgate #watergate #bendgate....when did gates become the enemy?

I am familiar with Watergate scandal. It starts out the trend to name scandalous incident with -gate suffix. But coming from non-English background, nor that I live in states, I am not sure how this -gate came up to name tech issues in the first place. First time I heard it was bendgate.
 
The term #gate should be replaced with #barndoor there has been so many things wrong. Apparently.

The first time was about the antenna of the iPhone 4.
 
Like many things on the Internet, someone coined the term "gate" to imply scandal drawing a parallel to "Watergate", and the Internet Parrots ate it up many not even being old enough to remember Nixon. And they think it's clever.

Joke's on them.

The whole "-gate" thing "jumped the shark" ages ago but unfortunately posters here haven't seemed to notice

QFT the joke's on them, instead of sounding clever, they reveal themselves to be anything but
