The 7th generation iPad Air was released in March and represents the current model. It's only one year newer than the 6th generation and the primary upgrade is the switch from the M2 to the M3 chip. The M3 chip offers about a 20% performance boost over its predecessor and is only about 20% slower than the iPad Pro's M4 chip. The iPad Air maintains the stunning Ultra Retina XDR display, Wi-Fi 6E, and 5G cellular connectivity. It's compatible with the Apple Pencil Pro, Apple Pencil (USB-C), and Magic Keyboard, transforming it into a versatile iOS hybrid laptop. The iPad Air also supports Apple Intelligence.
Apple iPad Air (2024) Review (older model) by Jacqueline Thomas
"The iPad for the rest of us. For most people who need their tablet to play games or watch movies, the iPad Air is the sweet spot. It might not be as premium as the iPad Pro, but with its beautiful display and still-powerful M2 processor, it just doesn’t need to be."
