The good The iPad Air delivers solid performance and battery life in an attractive and impossibly thin-and-light package. The front-facing camera delivers excellent FaceTime capabilities and the Retina Display is top-notch.
The bad No Touch ID fingerprint scanner, meaning you’ll have to type in a passcode with every unlock and a password with every purchase.
The bottom line Imbued with first class design and aesthetics, within the full-size tablet universe, the iPad Air is second only to its newer sibling, the Air 2.
