Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 17900 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
25.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 12.4 ms rise
↘ 13.2 ms fall
The screen shows relatively slow response rates in our tests and may be too slow for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 56 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (21.5 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
46.8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 23.6 ms rise
↘ 23.2 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 78 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (33.7 ms).

Omdöme - Utförlig uppgradering av Air

Recension av Apple iPad Air (2020). Recensionsex från Apple Germany.
Recension av Apple iPad Air (2020). Recensionsex från Apple Germany.

Även 2020 års modell av iPad Air kommer fortsatt placera sig mellan iPad 8 och iPad Pro 11, men den ser nu mer ut som Pro-modellen. Detta märks inte bara på den nya designen utan också på att tillbehör som Magic Keyboard eller Pencil 2 går att använda på båda modellerna.

4:e generationen av iPad Air är en utförlig uppgradering och den närmar sig Pro-modellerna.   

Det finns ett flertal nyheter jämfört med den föregående modellen. Utöver den senaste A14-processorn har den nu 4 GB minne, en större skärm, USB-C 3.2 och en aningen bättre kamera med stöd för inspelning av 4K-video. Touch ID är nu inbyggt i startknappen, vilket inte påverkar funktionens pålitlighet på något sätt.     

iPad Pro är bättre och har mer RAM, en kraftigare SoC och en 120 Hz-skärm, så det är inte alls tänkt att iPad Air ska ersätta den, men Apple har valt lite andra skiljelinjer. Men för många är iPad Air 4 inte bara ett billigare alternativ utan också ett mer logiskt sådant. Den har mer än tillräckligt med prestanda för alla områden och passar till och med bra för att redigera bilder och video.
