Review Roundup: iPad Air

Wednesday, 30 October 2013 | by Pat's Picks

Apple’s latest full-size tablet, the iPad Air goes on sale Friday. USA Today‘s Edward Baig says the thinner, lighter iPad is better than all its rivals, but he says it’s not a must-do upgrade for current iPad owners. In the New York Times, Damon Darlin agrees that current iPad owners don’t need to upgrade. He calls the improvements “incremental, not revolutionary.” In the Wall Street Journal, Walt Mossberg says while it’s not a radical rethinking, it’s a major improvement on a successful product. Mossberg says it’s the best tablet he’s ever reviewed.
