The biggest complaints about the iPad Air, 9 days before it has even been released
It's become an annual tradition: Complaining about Apple products before they are released or anyone has even touched them.
The new iPad Air and iPad mini were announced at Apple's press event Tuesday, and the complaints are rolling in, with just over a week before their in-store availability dates. Both devices are, at their cores, newer versions of last year's iPads, with some improved specs and added features.

What follows is a comprehensive rundown of the most persistent complaints about the iPad Air and the iPad mini, days before either has been released. While new complaints are sure to pop up as soon as these tablets start shipping, let's focus on the perceived errors of Apple's yet-to-be-sold latest.

Below, take a look at our tweet roundup of the biggest complaints about the new, not-yet-available iPads from Apple.
