iPad Air 2

None shows the other side of the coin

Apple’s iPad Air 2 is undoubtedly the most trendy tablet on the market. Lots of people buy this tablet not only for it’s design, but also for it’s great compliments that comes with. As the manufacture company described it’s “So capable, you won’t want to put it down. So thin and light, you won’t have to.”. It comes with “Not just a thinner display, but a beautiful display.” and a battery that lasts long. Also, It has many great characteristics like: fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating in a fully laminated – antireflective retina display, Touch ID and the famous A8X chip with 64‑bit architecture that comes with an M8 motion coprocessor. There is so much noise for the “good facts” of that tablet, but none shows the other side of the coin. We will..!

1. Overheating

It’s not only the hottest tablet on the market, it’s actually getting warmer even when you’re not running heavy processing apps. Sometimes it gets so hot that can be crashed and force it self to restart. The main area of the problem can be spotted at the back side of the device. If you feel that your iPad is running too hot, make an appointment at an Apple Store to have a technician examine your device. Should Apple give a pair of oven gloves for every iPad Air 2? I don’t know.

2. Slow Charging

Battery seems to be good for such a device and it lasts long as we said previously. But, a number of users have been surprised at how long the tablet takes to recharge. On average, with the 27.3-watt-hour rechargeable lithium-polymer battery, it should charge up within three to four hours.

3. WiFi Issues

This is a common problem that most of the Apple devices have. There are various issues ranging from slow Wi-Fi to dropping connections that reported from a number of owners. For all those connectivity issues there are several solutions that you can use in order to get over it, but it’s never sure if this could fix it once and forever.

4. Touch Sensitive Problems

This is a really strange issue because Apple decided on using a laminated gapless display. So what about that? Well, the displays on previous generations of iPad used three separate components. iPad Air 2 changes all that, combining those three layers into just one. This eliminates gaps between layers, along with the internal reflectance caused by those gaps. The result? Colors are richer, contrast is greater, and images are sharper and more vivid, but also there are touch sensitive problems. The screen gets unresponsive. Sometimes the whole screen, sometimes just one area. Some people also have issues with multi-touch, where the iPad Air 2 seems to register touches they didn’t make. So much innovation created such a big problem. Not all iPads of the current version come with that problem, although it’s not rare.

5. Dark Lines or Yellow Tint on Screen

As reports describe: “A few iPad Air 2 owners have been complaining about issues with the screens on their new tablets. Reports have mentioned dark vertical or horizontal bars, mostly on the left edge of the display when held in portrait view. There have also been complaints about a noticeable difference in color between the two halves of the screen, with the left hand side having a yellowish tint. This is easiest to see when the display has a white background, on a web page, for example.”
