iPad vs iPad Air: With a $150 price gap, is the Air still worth the premium?

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2025-10-22 16:46:40

Apple has two great, affordable iPads that most people consider: the base iPad, and the iPad Air. Over time, these iPads have always been relatively similar, making it a rather interesting debate. With current deals, theres only $150 between these two iPads, which really begs the question: should you pay more for the iPad Air, or save some money with the base iPad? The case for iPad Air For $150 more, the iPad Air comes with a lot more tech at a sub-$500 price. To be exact, the iPad Air is cur

Performance Speed Limits (2019)

How fast can it go? Sometimes you just want to know how fast your code can go, without benchmarking it. Sometimes you have benchmarked it and want to know how close you are to the maximum speed. Often you just need to know what the current limiting factor is, to guide your optimization decisions. Well this post is about that determining that speed limit.

While Threads already allows up to 500 characters per post (which is more than enough for casual users used to the microblogging format), it is now testing support for long-form posts through “text attachments”. Here’s how it works.

Meta seems to be working on ways for Threads users to share long-form writing within a single post. Several users have reported seeing a new "attach text" feature on the service, which allows them to embed large chunks of text within a single post. The feature, which hasn't been formally announced by Meta, is similar to the "articles" feature that's available on X to Premium+ subscribers.

If This Is the Price of Samsung’s Vision Pro Killer, It’s Still Too Much

Samsung’s first-ever XR headset, Project Moohan, is finally inching towards launch, and there could be good and bad news for anyone dying to know where it fits on the price spectrum. The good news? According to leaks from a Korean news outlet, Newsworks, Project Moohan will cost less than Apple’s wildly expensive Vision Pro, which debuted at $3,500. Phew! Price crisis averted, right? Wrong. Leaks suggest that the headset will still cost close to $2,000, with current conversions from Korean won t

4 apps you should use instead of Headspace

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Headspace is arguably the most popular meditation app around, with millions of users across 200 countries. I’ve used it extensively, and there’s a lot to like. It was one of the first super-successful apps in this category, paving the way for countless others that followed. However, Headspace isn’t perfect. For many, the cost is a major hurdle.

The Best Gaming Headsets for Xbox, PS5, and PC (2025)

Microphones are common on most headphones and earbuds, but on gaming-specific headsets you're more likely to find boom mics sticking out from one of the ears. These tend to provide better audio quality, as well as a few other features you may want to consider when buying a new headset. The first is a visual indicator for whether your mic is muted.

This steep drop in installs is pulling down X’s overall average, leading to a 26% decrease in total mobile downloads year-over-year as of July. That’s still slightl
