iPad Air

Apple has way too many iPad models. iPad Air should be the base iPad at $399. The lineup should be Air, Pro, Mini. I really enjoy my M1 Air but I waited until it dropped to $399. There’s no way I can justify getting it at $599, even the new M4 that just came out… the screen is my biggest gripe and t

I have the same problem with my M1 iPad Air 64gb and that’s not a cheap or old device. Needed to delete almost everything just to install ios26 because it needs space for the old and the new OS at the same time (18+24gb =42 GB out of the 55 usable on the iPad)

I don't get it. I have an iPad Air 4 (A14) and it seems I'm getting updated to 26, but the M1 won't?

I think it should last another 5 years with no issues. Unfortunately, the battery won't. M1 had terrible battery efficiency, so if you buy a used one, you'll probably need a new battery pretty soon. If you manage to find an unused one, it'll probably last but battery life does suck on it. My A14 iPa

I wouldn't call going from iPad Air M1 to iPad A16 an "upgrade" (less RAM, less processing power, no laminated display, etc) But if it works for you, it works.

Actually during last year I ditched iPhone in favour of Android and completely abandoned Windows for Mac :P For me its fine. I'm not using Safari anyway. All I need is browser history sync.

Buts the way it's always been Because retailers have to build in a margin for currency fluctuations, as they don't readjust their GBP price on a daily b

OP says it's an M1 iPad Air which was released in 2022. I was surprised they released a 64GB model (I had to google it to check). It was kind of an asshole move of Apple to be selling 64GB iPads so recently. Especially when the M chips came to iPads and they were boasting about how powerful they wer

Not sure if this will make you feel or better or worse but performance got worse on my M1 iPad Air as well and that thing is supposed to be a beast. I think the os is just very poorly optimized with several bugs.

I'll link the stuff that you need if you're on Windows, there's this reddit post about setting up Sunshine and Virtual Display Driver (though I don't use MultiMonitor as VDD supports custom resolutions, it's a bit annoying to get the virtual screen to share to the tablet sometimes)If you want to use
