The Apple iPad Air 2 remains the company's flagship 9.7-inch tablet, as it wasn't replaced by a new model at the company's recent press event. You can score a 16 GB Wi-Fi iPad Air 2 for $449.99, $50 lower than Apple's price.
At Apple's press event in September, the company debuted its latest flagship iPhones, the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus. Even though the smartphone and phablet retain the design of last year's iPhone 6 series, features like the 3D Touch display, snappy A9 processor, 12 megapixel rear camera and 2 GB of RAM have been huge selling points and helped Apple shatter last year's iPhone 6 and 6 Plus record of 10 million sold during first weekend of sales.
Many of the most popular reviews by our favorite and most credible tech experts have all praised Apple for doubling the RAM inside the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus to 2 GB, which is the same amount found in the iPad Air 2.
The iPad Air 2 was introduced last year, and its specs, design and features still make it one of the best tablets on the market. The slate is the only previous generation iPad that can take advantage of iOS 9's Split-Screen feature, which allows users to split the display and run two apps simultaneously. This is certainly where the iPad Air 2's 64-bit A8X chip and 2 GB of RAM show their strength and make everything in iOS 9 run very smoothly.
The iPad Air 2 boasts a 9.7-inch Retina display and Touch ID to unlock and make purchases on the tablet. The Air 2's camera capabilities consist of an 8 megapixel rear camera and FaceTime HD camera for FaceTime video calling and selfies. It includes 16 GB of internal storage, and Apple says you should get up to 10 hours of surfing the Web on Wi‑Fi, watching video or listening to music.
