iPad Air 2 vs iPad Pro?

[pana85]

Hey, I want to start out by saying I love the app Tim. Its a ton of fun and has been a hit at parties.

What's the verdict on the iPad Air 2 vs iPad Pro as far as performance goes? Do you think the additional cost of the Pro is worth it vs the Air 2?

Thanks for your time!

Hi there,
Thanks a lot! It makes it much easier to spend all day on the computer when I hear things like that

The answer to your question is that it depends on how much extra you are going to spend.
Here are some thoughts to help:
- If you can get an iPad 12.9", get one any way you can. These are just simply the BEST at parties for Wifibooth. Yes, they're expensive but sometimes you can find them used
- If you can get an iPad 10.5", get one -- again, bigger really is better
- Otherwise, if you are asking about the iPad Pro 9.7", I don't think it is worth buying one new, because you should be able to find an iPad Air 2 used that's considerably cheaper.

I found a used iPad 12.9" and that's what I use exclusively at the events I run, and it is a huge improvement over my older iPad Air 1.

if you are using the buildt in ipad camera the pro has a much better resolution of 5.7mp vs 1.2mp for the air
IMHO the 10.5 being only 0.8" bigger is really not worth double the price.
of course if you are using an external camera the air 2 is fine.

Thanks for the replies! I'm sticking with my 12.9" Pro. I thought it might be overkill, but I took it to a gig and it was a hit. Thanks!

Oh yeah - the 12.9 is undoubtedly the best ipad for wifibooth!
