Brief rant on Apple product naming schemes.<p>When Apple first started using the "Air" term for products, it meant thin and light. The new iPad Air is not the thinnest Apple tablet and it's only the lightest by 5 grams (hardly noticeable).<p>It seems like it's taken on the new meaning of "Pro Lite".
Check out <a href="https://basicappleguy.com/basicappleblog/what-does-air-mean" rel="nofollow">https://basicappleguy.com/basicappleblog/what-does-air-mean</a><p>But yeah it now is the mid-tear iPad, the article describes the current meaning as "best for most", which imo describes it well.
