9. Monitor your water usage on your water bill and ask your local government about a home water audit. Install backflow plugs and valves to prevent water from getting into the rest of the home. In side by side comparisons with the iPad Air, the photos have very little difference bar sharpness, and the low light capabilities are nothing to write home about, and certainly not in the iPhone 6’s league. Hence, they do not have anything to eat or drink. The challenge is even greater here, as not only does Apple have to top its own lofty goal, but also beat off the much-improved competition from Samsung, Google/HTC and Sony. It launched with a premium price tag and Sony’s UI isn’t the best we’ve come across, but the Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet is still easily one of the best iPad Air 2 alternatives around. If there’s any non-Apple tablet that makes as strong a first impression as the iPad Air 2 it’s the Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet. The polycarbonate build of the slate isn’t quite as impressive as the iPad Air 2’s aluminium unibody, but the Xperia Z4 Tablet is perhaps more durable with water and dust resistance added into the mix.

It’ll also cost you quite a lot more. There’s a whole lot of power here too and a gorgeous 10.1-inch 2560 x 1600 display, which beats the iPad Air 2 for pixel density. That’s a lot of suds and a whopping statistic that begs the question: Do we really need dishwashing soap to get our dishes clean? Your clothes will still get clean, but they may not have as much fragrance as you’re used to. The iPad Pro 9.7 looks, sounds and performs better than the iPad Air 2 in every way, though you have to look a little closer to realize any of these changes on the outside. The iPad Pro 9.7 is more than an a simple specs bump a year and a half after the iPad Air 2, but it’s not quite the laptop replacement that Apple poses it to be. The faster specs keep this tablet running smoothly, while 4K video and the choice of a 256GB iPad make for an excellent combination.

Its 9.7-inch model’s weight fits in between the iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 4. Its 8-inch tablet is even lighter. But I remember wondering how that could be topped, whether Apple would just give it a tiny push and call it all-new (like it did with the iPad mini 3, lest we forget). This is a budget slate by Apple’s standards, but still a little pricier than the aging Air 2. It goes a long way towards justifying its price tag though, with a faster chipset, a better screen and Apple Pencil support. In fact, even in 2018 it’s still pretty good. Yet despite all this tech it’s still got a heft battery life. Originally you got to choose between 16GB, 64GB and 128GB models, but Apple has since ditched the first two and replaced them with a 32GB iPad Air 2. Of course, even more recently it has ditched the Air 2 entirely, so you’ll be relying on third-party retailers to get it in any capacity. The 16GB option was too small, but Apple has now ditched that giving you 32GB and 128GB models which suit this slate much better and makes the entry level option far more approachable.

Both of these are easy to play, the choice is fairly vast and while the selection isn’t particularly strong (there surely have to be more game titles coming soon that take advantage of the sheer number of sensors, GPU performance and Metal, which allows a stronger and slicker game play performance on the iPad) it will only get better – plus there are plenty of kids’ games to pass off to your children if you’re brave enough with your new tablet. Apple has drawn on all its strengths to make a tablet that seems to have no flaws, and it remained the best tablet for a long time. And evaporative cooling including all Its methods is one of the best solutions available. Many users upgrade their cooling systems as a means to intentionally overclock their CPUs or GPUs, but beware. Direct systems (and some indirect systems using heat exchangers) can be retrofitted to existing stores. I originally wrote here that I thought there was no way tablets can get any thinner, without some genius move in engineering.
