Launched in March, the 7th generation iPad Air is the latest model, featuring a significant upgrade from the M2 to the M3 chip. The M3 chip offers a 20% performance boost over the M2 and is only 20% slower than the iPad Pro's M4 chip. This model retains the stunning Ultra Retina XDR display, supports Wi-Fi 6E and 5G cellular connectivity, and is compatible with the Apple Pencil Pro, Apple Pencil (USB-C), and Magic Keyboard, transforming it into an iOS hybrid laptop. Additionally, it supports Apple Intelligence.
In her review of the previous model, Jacqueline Thomas praised the iPad Air as "The iPad for the rest of us. For most people needing a tablet for gaming or movie watching, the iPad Air hits the sweet spot. While it may not match the premium feel of the iPad Pro, its beautiful display and powerful M2 processor make it more than adequate."
