It ticks every box, delivering long battery life, speedy performance and a sharp, bright display.In our iPad Air M2 review we had a ton of praise for this device. Its display is super bright, reaching 577 nits in our tests, and it delivers rich, accurate colors too. In short, whatever you view on this tablet’s screen, it will look great. That makes it extremely attractive to creatives, but it’s solid for watching movies and shows on the go too.Apple’s M2 chip also provides a ton of performance power. While it can’t keep up with the new iPad Pro M4, the iPad Air can handle tough browsing, streaming and gaming with ease. And no sacrifices have been made to battery life; our unit lasted for 11 hours and 30 minutes in our battery life tests.We do have a couple of small issues with this tablet. For starters, there’s no face ID, so you’ll have to stick to unlocking your iPad with your fingerprint. In addition, we don’t think this tablet makes a great laptop replacement as iPadOS makes the experience too finicky.Still, if you want a portable and powerful device, the iPad Air M2 has you totally covered and it’s even better value for money after this discount.
