Hello all,

Since i can't wait till ipad air 2, i'm decide to buy the ipad air 1 since the price is drop too. so my question is, is it still can "Perform well" and "Not Outdated" ?

Thank you in advance for every comment. Any feedback is needed. If okay, will decide to buy this month

it is too slow and lousy camera compared to ipad Air 2.

aw, it's too slow ? hmm

Don't be fool, iPad Air 1 is Apple Flagship Tablet of 2013.

iPad Air 1 vs iPad Air 2
A7 vs A8X
12x CPU Performance + 180x GPU Performance increased only.

You not gonna Play 60FPS Dota 2 on your iPad Air 2 anyway. The only that we concern about the Air 2 is the RAM got increase to 1GB to 2GB yet to be confirm.

A7 is using in iPhone 5S (2013), iPad mini Retina (2013) as well.

iPad AIR is still performing very well, can still use till 2016?
I am going to iPAD AIR 2, because currently dont have my own personal iPAd yet... Next is the 6.1mm design, Touch ID, improving camera (Easy to do notes on class) XD
So back to your question, iPad Air 1 is still a very good tablet

Thank you for your feedback guys it's help me a lots :3 1 question, between Ipad Air 1 vs Ipad Mini 2, which is better in term of Performance ?

Performance are same because using the same A7 Processors. In terms of choosing Air 1 and Mini 2 is about the Size and Screen Color Accuracy only.

If you want bigger iPad, then its wise to wait.

Price drop only RM300++ but in terms of performance, Air2 is at least 2.5x faster according to Apple. You also get Touch ID, 8MP camera, barometer, 6.1mm thickness and lighter.

Which is why the RM300 more is worth paying. If you compare Mini2 and Mini3, then the extra is not worth paying because just add Touch ID.

I thought is 12x CPU Performance + 180x GPU Performance? lol

Mini1 is really slow la... since I also got an iPad2.

I'm gonna go get an iPad Air 1 coz I only use it for browsing and emails, so now that the iPad Air is cheaper, it also means accessories are cheaper and I don't think it's outdated considering how the 1st gen of ipad mini is still around, heh heh...

The best part about the price drop is that many sellers in our Garage Sale forum still selling so expensive, maybe they didn't realise about the price drop, hehe

If u dun have ipad, better wait abit to get an ipad air 2/ipad mini 3. If you have an ipad air or mini 2 already, I dun think its worth the upgrade.

best buy is ipad mini 2, rm969, u will get what all u need.

My iPad 3rd generation still serve me good, so what you think about the more powerful iPad air?

It's a great tablet and I don't think it's outdated yet. Maybe you will see some slowdown after a few more iOS updates, iOS 10/11 maybe ? But that will take years, so.....

what iOS version are you using?

iOS 7.1

no wonder. i feel lagness in my friends ipad2. he told me that ipad air most likely will not able to host future iOS 9 well. good tactics from apple to force people to buy their latest gadgets

ipad 2 is about 3.5yrs since launched ... if u want to run iOS8 on it , u gonna expect lagness ....iOS7 is the best for iPad2 ....so what do u expect a 3.5yrs tablet to perform ? 2yrs old android tablet is as good as a trash already ... iPad 2 still serve me well , for movie and e-book reading ....net surfing as well..

ipad 2 is legandary. Ipad 4 owner lucks' may not be good. nexus 10 launched 2 years back and it's still kicking ass as long android is able to optimize the hardware capability

ps: i am not a fan of android nor iOS, but i'm really looking into the new ipad air 2 now with its recent bump of 2GB ram
