Hey thats wrong, First gen owner here. The Air cannot multitask with side by side thanks to apple's buy the Air 2 campaign
>10 Hour battery life
wrong.
>Doesn't lag at all
wrong. iOS 10.2 is a stutterfest with animations turned off even.
>Can multitask
my ass nigga. Its a fucking shit iPad that gets cucked by the Air 2 because Apple wants it to be.

>>61209838
woops I forgot to fill in the first answer
>>10 Hour battery life
>wrong
It's not 10 hours, its 5 at best when used under load. Standby is fucking ace.

I dropped it face first and the glass shattered. It wasn't a bad tablet but its nowhere as good as you're making it out to be. I'm using my sister's iPad 3 with iOS 8.4 and it feels just as fast. You better stop shilling this.

Then maybe your battery is shitting itself, for Safari shitposting + Music + Manga reading + Notes it last even longer than 10 hours, if you play gaymen it will drop to 6-7 hours obviously.

wrong. Animations on here, no lags at all.

The Air 2 has 2GB of RAM, maybe that's the reason it can run side by side apps. OP pic is not side by side, it's slideover + Video over (Yes, that's multitasking as well)

I meant video playback. The battery life is surprisingly for an old iPad like this but honestly you're making it look too good.

Now, you can't claim it multi tasks if you can't have side by side can you?

>>61209940
thats an iPad 3, it shouldn't lag this bad if you stick on iOS 8.4 but its pretty trash that they claim updates for ever are good things. This webm shows a new OS choking old hardware in a vista-like scenario.

>>61209968
>Lottery I guess? Mine is slow as shit on 10+
Idk man, try a clean iOS install. I swear it performs great on me.
> Now, you can't claim it multi tasks if you can't have side by side can you?
I don't agree. Slide-over is fast enough to be categorized as multitasking in my opinion. Video over is definitely multitasking too.

>>61209708
Android tablets were always shit m9. They also got killed off by chromebooks.

>>61209940

It's literally the slowest iPad ever, A5 chip + Retina screen didn't go so well.

The iPad 4 is really fast tho, the iPad 2 is still performing fine because no retina screen from what I hear.

iPad mini 2 is better.

As a person who fixes Apple devices for side income.

That Air lags and you know it, chump. Just because you are blinded by Apple doesn't mean it isn't far slower than at launch.

Also even the Note 4 is that old and doesn't lag (unless an Apple user is using it) or a Nexus 6 (again unless an Apple user is using it). Far smoother than the equal iphones of the time. With modification both of those devices, and several more, have yet to need replacing. Still higher resolution than iOS phones with more of everything.


Also. The Shield is 3 years old now. Still as fast as the day it came out and more capable than even the Air 2 by a large margin.

One last thing poorfags. Surface Pro 1/2 are from 2012/2013. They can still emulate Cube/Wii at 60fps at 720p or higher depending on the game. Again proving iOS is dead last.

You're saying the Nvidia shield is more capable than the Air 2? How? That was a huge failure and everyone on /g/ agrees
> Surface Pro 1/2 are from 2012/2013
Those are not normal tablets, they're Intel core laptop abortions that get less than 4 hours of battery life while throttling even with the loud fan kicking in 100% of the time. Today the surface is much better, but too expensive compared to the iPad.

>>61210324

You only think tablets are retarded because you're stuck with an Android one. Apps are literal dog shit on Android tablets because they're all designed for phones so you get a whole bunch on wasted screen space, and onscreen buttons really don't make sense on tablet.

It has quite a bit pro software (which is often inferior to desktop stuff but at least optimised for tablets), besides it's viable for drawing due a non shit pen. At best you can do notes with SP.

>And it's still much more than 50GB on the iPad
With larger programs to take care of that. Come on, be real. No one besides the turbo-poorfags would bother with crappy 4GB/128GB version.

Guess I should join in the shitposting with my android tablet...why not...

Ahem behold my HP slatebook x2 10inch android tablet from several years ago. It has excellent battery life 2gb of ram and a better resolution than iPad. It has a micro sd slot for additional storage also.

However it has still more features iOS will never have. How about a full keyboard dock? Yep it came with it. And that dock has an extra battery too so all day usage is fucking garateed.

How about a USB 2.0 port capable of using anything from a controller, HDD or even a fucking DVD r drive? Yep it has one of those too bitch.

How about a full size HDMI out port? You bet your sweet ass!

A second additional sd car slot. Damn right I have 2 sd slots for extra storage. Your iPad cannot compete.

And in addition it has a nice trackpad in case I'd rather use that instead of getting my greasy fingers on my screen...and if that's not good enough I can just use a mouse via my fucking usb port.

What about durability you ask? I have 2 small children who destroy everything they touch and it's survived more abuse than I can discus with one mere post...something no apple product can claim.

And yes it can be rooted and updated if you so desire.

Only real problem is internal storage is a meager 16th but I have double sd card slots so it's not that big a deal.

Pretty sure you can find these fuckers on eBay for under 200 these days.

IOS btfo forever.

lmao wut? Retina is 2048x1536

> inb4 muh 600% scaling
It's 200%, but Android does the exact same shit, and I'm fine with it, you can't possibly use a 2048x1536 10 inch display at 100% scaling, everything would be tiny.

200% just looks fucking great, everything is sharp af.

>10.5
Meh. Would rather go with larger one or is the 120Hz screen limited to 10.5 for now?

Also why i7 instead of i5? They are basically the same shit. No need to cheat, iPad Pro is obviously superior either way.

Nope, the new 12 inch is also 120Hz

Iris Plus graphics

Holy shit. Laptops BTFO. Hopefully they'll bring it to Macs at the next refresh.

>Iris Plus graphics
Not like it'd make a big difference. Sure iPad Pro is faster in burst workloads but SP can keep up the performance for longer, so it gets messy and complicated when comparing that.

Base i5/8GB/256GB version would show practically the same results.

For all the shit Nvidia gets, they at least bother to update their tablets better than the majority of dedicated phone and tablet manufacturers.

Top tier picture. I would save it if I were into that sort of thing. I bet it was made on an iPad Pro.

>Protip: tablets are fucking stupid

If it can't be done on a smartphone, get a fucking laptop.

I disagree. 7" and 8" tablets weighing less than 340g have a pretty reasonable form factor and use case.

My first gen Air is one of the most stable hardware I own. Never lags, never stutters, just does it job being a glorified textbook/media tablet.

Battery life lasts a couple of days for me on and off usage so it must just be yours.

Idk about multitasking though, I never had a need for it.

>>61210735
>pick one.

not him, but i use my ipad for light browsing, and reading e-books and manga. you don't need fucking updates to do those. it just fucking werks.

>>61210738
i have one and it still gets 8 hours. no shitting. use it less recently though but the standby battery life on the thing is still like 2-3 months, which is crazy (i know this for a fact because i keep track of when it stops registering on my wifi network)

you orally please your mother with that mouth, anon?

>>61225374
It really doesn't, but like i said, it's a glorified textbook/media device.

I only use it for textbooks at school, MS office, light browsing, plex, YouTube, emails, and calenders.

>the Note 4 is that old and doesn't lag (unless an Apple user is using it)
>or a Nexus 6 (again unless an Apple user is using it).

You mean poordroids don't notice the stutter because they're used to it, unlike Apple users who are used to a stutter-free user experience.

Fast? Maybe, but stable? No way in hell.

The A7 is a fantastic chip. Even the A10X is the same chip, just clocked twice as high in a smaller fab with more cache and an extra core (with useless efficiency cores as well).

Cyclone architecture is brilliant

Who the fuck cares about iPad 1

Any hardware aficionado with some brains is going to figure out when to buy and what to not buy.

I know this sounds really difficult to understand, but when Apple ditched TI and built super wide like Intel's offerings, they bombed the industry. Qualcomm hasn't even caught up (although adreno has caught up to Imagination, but Apple is designing their own GPU now too)

>>61239147
if you think Qualcomm is in some sort of dire straits I want whatever your dealer is giving you
