After so many years Apple has finally upgraded the memory on the iPads, they finally got to 128 GB and with that I will be upgrading my 3 year old iPad 2 which I still love to use and abuse. Now with the latest update from Cupertino a lot of people wanted more like the iWatch or the Apple TV Major update, but it looks like that will be at a later stage, but for me the iPads were the winner and the iPad Mini 2 was the best of the bunch, yes now I have a reason to purchase one.

Basic Breakdown iPad Air

• Its Thinner
• Only 1 lb – Very Light
• Twice the Wifi – 2 Antennas that work smoothly together
• A7 Chip 64 Bit – More Power Won’t Hang – Hopefully it will survive my abuse
• New Design & iOS7 – I’m liking IOS 7 from my Update
• Up to 128GB of Storage – At Last

Basic Breakdown iPad Mini 2:

• New Design
• A bit heavier then the previous design due the new design
• A7 Chip 64 Bit – A lot of power packed into a small Design
• Retina Screen – 7.9inch Display – At Last, everything will look good on it
• Up to 128 GB – Thank you
• Twice the Wifi – 2 Antennas that work smoothly together

I am personally going to be getting the iPad Mini 2 – 128 GB because I want the space and that beautiful screen with the powerful wifi. I don’t care for LTE because I have one of the first 3G versions that I never put a chip in and when I did it was annoying and preferred wifi. Also if you purhcase the iPad LTE the US like most of us will, the 4G won’t work in Kuwait so that would be pointless. Also for the price of the 4G units, they are not worth it at all, serisouly almost 1000 USD for the top end iPad Air, thats just ridiculous, but the iPad Mini 2 is an excellent buy.
