Apple just recently released the fifth generation ipad less than two weeks ago, but is the new ipad worth all the commotion that has tagged along with it. The new iPad Air fifth generation  is said to be the  lightest, thinnest, and have the most advanced uprgrades available on the market. The new iPad has one big major change that is evident and that it is the new 64-bt processor that Apple has installed in the Air. Supposedly, the upgrades and the new advancements are so good that people are actually comparing the new Air to a desktop computer.

Ben Bajarin, analyst for Creative Strategies stated that he could easily argue that the new iPad Air can be used as a alternative for a laptop. " I'm convinced that the iPad Air is the perfect personal computer for the masses. The iPad has become as versatile as any personal computer on the market." John Gruber also stated, " For anyone who doesn't truly take advantage of the capabilities in Mac OS X that aren't available in iOS , the iPad Air is a superior portable computer to a laptop in nearly everyway. " Gruber is a writer for Daring Fireball.

With Apple still remaining the most innovative technology company on the planet, Samsung is most definitley filing in right behind them. The new iPad Air is said to have good sales this year, but Apple did state that they may be expecting a lower than average quarter for this fall. The popular ipad is also supposed to feature the new Touch ID system where it will turn on/off by a touch of your fingerprint, even allow  the user to buy apps, or songs. Though the new Ipad Air didn't come equipped with a better retina display, hopefully Apple will be featuring that in the sixth generation iPad. For more information on the iPad Air go here.
