The latest iPad Air follows the formula that has brought success for several years for Apple. It has many attractive elements and is only a little less than the top product.

In the past, Apple had a very lean product strategy. Each year they only release 1-2 new iPhone and iPad models. And the only difference is the screen size or the amount of internal memory.

That simplicity disappeared for a few years now, as Apple diversified its product ranges. Both Apple Watch, iPhone or iPad have models released in the same year with nearly the same design, similar sizes.

iPad Air 2020, also known as iPad Air 4 has just been sold at the end of October, has the size and design almost similar to the 11-inch iPad Pro. The price of the iPad Air is about 5 million compared to the iPad Pro model. And the cause of this discrepancy is some differences that are sometimes difficult to discern.

On the back, the Air also has a smart keyboard dock. The size of this iPad is equivalent to the 11-inch iPad Pro. So can also use the same accessories, including the Magic Keyboard keyboard.

The new iPad Air’s thin, uniform bezel looks more modern and premium than the previous generation. The feeling of holding and using has slightly changed in a positive direction.

Because the square edge helps to hold the screen border a little more firmly. However, too thin bezels sometimes make me mistakenly hold the screen.

The fingerprint sensor on the side, praised by Apple bosses as an achievement in design, is sometimes a bit inconvenient. Unlock speed is fast, but you will have to click, not touch to open. Surely this experience can not be as simple and easy as FaceTime on iPad Pro.
