Because it's just simple and makes sense. Mostly, the only confusing apple product is iPad Air because it doesn't match what Air means in MacBooks.

- Retr0id 2y ago> doesn't match what Air means in MacBooks In the past I'd agree but these days it's better aligned.
- wmf 2y agoIsn't the Air the lightest and thinnest?
- jhickok 2y agoThe Macbook was thinner and lighter than the Macbook Air.
- wmf 2y agoThe MacBook hasn't been made for years though.
- stagalooo 2y agoYes, people are only confused because they think it means cheapest, which is ultimately a failing of Apple branding but doesn't really make much sense to me.
- thiht 2y agoAgree, I bought an iPad recently and was really confused by pricings between the iPad (10 I think), the iPad Air and iPad Mini It makes sense but it’s not obvious
- 0x457 2y agoI don't equate Air line to "cheapest", I think of it where compromises were made in the name of lower weight: lower TDP cpu, less cooling capacity etc.
- eloisant 2y agoPersonally I find it confusing that all of their iPads since 2010 are simply called "iPad" even though they're completely different. Same with all their products except the iPhone, that get a number in their official name. You have to dig into hidden "gen number" to find out which iPad is the one you bought 3 years ago.
