Comparison review
The iPad Air has a global score of 77.9, which is much better than the Honor Pad 9's 55.8 global score. IPad Air is a noticeably older and a little bit thicker tablet device than the Honor Pad 9, but Apple could make it somewhat lighter anyway. The iPad Air counts with iOS 8.x OS, while Honor Pad 9 has Android 13 OS.
IPad Air features a slightly better screen than Honor Pad 9, because although it has a bit lower 1536 x 2048 resolution and a little smaller screen, it also counts with a just a bit greater number of pixels per inch in the screen. IPad Air features a much greater processing power than Honor Pad 9, because although it has less RAM memory, it also counts with an additional graphics co-processor, a larger number of cores (and they are faster) and a 64-bit CPU.
The iPad Air counts with as much memory capacity for games and applications as Honor Pad 9, both of them have equal 128 GB internal storage capacity. The iPad Air counts with just a little bit longer battery life than Honor Pad 9, because it has 8820mAh of battery capacity. IPad Air's camera is very similar to the camera in Honor Pad 9, although the iPad Air has a way worse 5 MP resolution camera and a tinier aperture which is not nice for low-light captures and video.
