Pro:
- Intuitive operation, as they are known from other Apple devices
- Is also very good for older people who simply want to look at only a few sites (eg Wiki, dictionaries, references by television etc.)
- Very long battery runtime
- TOP processing
- Fits comfortably in your hand
- Quietly and is not nearly as warm as many laptops
- Fun
- Easy transportation of the unit
- Very high brightness of the display, yet long term
- Display easier to read than most laptops even in direct sunlight
- Since it is a Mac, you need (currently) no tons of annoying security software (firewall, antivirus and Co)
Cons:
- High price
- Additional charge for USB
- Like the combination of heat and humidity is not so much (other devices but neither)
- Display reflects very
- Presently no installable Flash Player
Conclusion:
The device does not replace a laptop, but it does not claim Apple also. Primarily, the device eg for people who own a PC and / or laptop is, however, on the couch or chair in the garden a little surfing on the Internet, play games, read online newspapers or want to watch videos. Older and non-technical people who just want to explore the World Wide Web and are not interested in Office and Co will certainly be very happy with it, since everything can be operated by fingers, ie a mouse is eliminated. Network installations (and many others) are at Apple also simpler than Mircrosoft, and you have not just yet manage its security software. The workmanship is very good, especially in comparison to other products on the market. Here one looks (I am referring now times with a notebook) with other manufacturers currently vain for shapely aluminum casings and is showered with plastic scrap.
PS: I own both a Windows PC and a Mac, so I belong neither to camp - in many areas, however, are more intuitive and significantly easier to use the Apple products. And ultimately can only hope that Apple might stimulate competition to produce comparable or even improved products, but the past makes here no great hope.
