Which ipad is better to buy Ipad mini or Ipad air for layout testing?

Question

css

You need a device to test the layout for the Ipad, emulators cope with this crookedly, to a greater extent they just emulate the screen size of the device, but not rendering by the browser. As a result, everything is fine in emulators, but everything is crooked on the iPad.
Therefore, I wondered what is better for the test to buy Ipad mini or Ipad air?
Help experts, or is it better to buy a Macbook and emulate through it?

Answer 1

Now there is a trend to look at the iPhone and other smartphones-shovels. It might be better to take them.
And to emulate a tablet, you can run a hackintosh virtual machine with the Safari browser.

Answer 2

if these iPads have the same resolution, then there is no difference - buy the one that is more convenient or cheaper

Answer 3

The more people buy, the more you buy.

Answer 4

In Chrome Canary, a good emulator of both is built into the Developer Tools. But if possible, it is better to test on the device. It doesn't matter which one in this case, because emulator glitches do not concern layout, but how they process touch events. And this can be checked on the iPhone 4 as well.
