QUOTE(neo_lam @ Nov 27 2014, 04:50 PM) screen distortion i think nope...the speaker vibration is there but i mostly use it with headphone so not big deal for me.... will check on the site after back home....the new batch dont have the vibration problem? in macrumours, the first batch in US, users claim by just holding up their iPad one hand, on one particular section of the screen, you will see as though there is so much pressure applied on that portion that the screen distorts. what i worry is whether the paint will scrape off or not.. cause it still keeps the chamfered edges which are known to scrape paint off on the iPhone 5 last time...

I just got mine tonight.  From a forumer though, lol. I've been using the iPad Mini Retina for a long time, and then the iPhone 6 Plus, so coming off from those two devices the iPad Air is kind of huge. But I'm appreciating the extra screen real estate. Reading is a complete joy -- I read a lot of longform articles and I've been breezing through a lot of my old backlog tonight, so yay. Comics are gorgeous on the screen. I did use the original iPad Air for a brief period of time before favoring the size/portability of the Mini, so my memory might be a little hazy, but comparing this iPad with the original Air, I don't really think you'd notice a difference in terms of size and weight, especially if you're using a case. Like the original Air is still really thin/light/awesome tablet all-around. I'm using my Air 2 completely naked with a sleeve, so at times I do notice how light/thin it is. Other times, it's just prop up on a stand, so those things disappear and you don't notice them as much. Touch ID is essential, so I appreciate its addition on the Air 2. Overall, I'm enjoying the device a lot.
