The iPad lineup in particular has gotten pretty bad. There's the iPad Pro 12.9-inch, the iPad Pro 9.7-inch, the iPad Air 2 (which also has a 9.7-inch display), the iPad mini 2 and the iPad mini 4.
Why would I get a 9.7-inch iPad Pro over a 9.7-inch iPad Air 2? What's the difference between an iPad mini 2 and an iPad mini 4, and what happened to the iPad mini 3?
They ought to just have three iPad models, distinguished by size: iPad Pro (the 12.9-inch model), iPad Air (the 9.7-inch model) and iPad mini (the 7.9-inch model). That would make it much easier to tell the difference and decide which one you want.
- kirykl 10y agoThe 9.7 Pro and Air are nearly identical. The naming is unfortunate. If the 9.7 Air is v1 the 9.7 Pro should be v2 of the same name. But the product itself is the iPad, there's isn't a competing iPhone XXL. The Pro/Air is just a sub configuration on price and specs.
- basch 10y agosmall medium large should be their lineup for everything. phones, laptops, tablets, desktops, cloud. iPhone mini, air, pro macbook mini, air, pro it's also probably time to end the tick/tock s vs non-s naming and just count up.
- beeboop 10y agoFunnily the regular Macbook is smaller and ligther than the Macbook Air. Don't quite understand that one.
- basch 10y agowhich makes now the perfect time to make the Air the middle tier product and the rename the Macbook the Macbook Mini leave a full speed i processor in the Air, and let the Mini use the m processors.
