Last year I just upgrade from iPad2 to iPad Air 2. My old iPad2 is still working fine, full charge still can last 6-7 hours continuously switched on. iOS upgrade all supported even until current latest version. Upgrade due to YOLO and slow processor after all these years. I think I use for about 4+ years, without issue. Still can sold it for RM400+

have been deciding between these 2 products too. the pro 9.7 (32gb) and air 2 (64gb), with the price for air 2 64gb being very attractive after a 12% discount on gemfive.com processor and iOS support should be adequate for normal use
however just not sure whether 32gb would be sufficient in the long run..
any existing users can comment on this? it would be very helpful thank you

I upgraded from my iPad 3, 3 months ago to an iPad Pro 9.7 inch to do music production. In many cases you would not need so much processing power but in my case every single drop of power was very important as the lack of processing power make my songs laggy when I am editing them. I have to say I'm very impressed by the iPad Pro's ability when it comes to very demanding activities such as what I am doing. I think it depends on what you need for me the extra 1000 ringgit was very worth spending because of how easy it is to use my iPad as a workstation. I think it depends on what you need. For me the extra 1000 ringgit was very worth spending because of how easy it is to use my iPad as a workstation so you got to consider it thoroughly. If you do end up at shelling out the money you will not be disappointed by the iPad Pro anyway, good luck!
