It was a pretty cool little device, and I was so happy to finally be able to buy myself a cool new piece of technology (I was poor for years leading up to that purchase). Anyway, in spite of how much I liked the mini, I eventually decided I wanted a bigger screen and something a little bit faster, so I traded it in for an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s\/ref=as_li_ss_tl?_encoding=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;field-keywords=Ipad%20Air%202&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;tag=ansingenbus-20&amp;url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;linkId=XT2HMHGJMHKI6IU4\">Ipad Air 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Ipad Air 2 is a masterpiece. It is a damn near perfect piece of technology. The internet, especially\u00a0with Google Chrome, is blazing fast. Visually, the pad is stunning with its gold-colored back and slimness. Its internal sensors are near-flawless: I play a racing game on mine in which I have to hold the pad like a steering wheel and turn it, and it works so well I feel almost like I am behind the wheel.\u00a0Just to make you feel like a king: it\u00a0can recognize your finger-print for easy online payments and unlocks.<\/p>\n<p>The only problem that I have ever had with it is that occasionally Google Chrome crashes. It seems like sometimes if you have a lot going on, Chrome will just disappear. No big deal, I click on Chrome again, it &#8220;Restore&#8221; to bring back what\u00a0I was looking at, and continue on. I am not sure if this reflects a failing of Apple or a failing of Google Chrome. However, if we take the route of judging the Ipad by\u00a0its\u00a0failures instead of its successes, it comes out\u00a0a winner: six months of use has shown only one minor flaw.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a premium piece of portable\u00a0technology for work or for fun, I highly recommend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s\/ref=as_li_ss_tl?_encoding=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;field-keywords=Ipad%20Air%202&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;tag=ansingenbus-20&amp;url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;linkId=XT2HMHGJMHKI6IU4\">Ipad Air 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve owned the Ipad Air 2 for about six months now, and I thought it was such a great product&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1256","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skepticink.com\/humesapprentice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1256","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skepticink.com\/humesapprentice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skepticink.com\/humesapprentice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skepticink.com\/humesapprentice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skepticink.com\/humesapprentice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1256"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/skepticink.com\/humesapprentice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1256\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skepticink.com\/humesapprentice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1256"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skepticink.com\/humesapprentice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1256"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skepticink.com\/humesapprentice\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1256"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
