The recently launched 7th generation iPad Air made its debut in March and represents the current flagship model in Apple's Air lineup. It offers a one-year upgrade over the previous generation, with the biggest change being the transition from the M2 to the more powerful M3 chip. This new M3 processor delivers approximately 20% faster performance compared to the M2, and remains only about 20% slower than the top-tier M4 chip found in the iPad Pro series.

Beyond the chip upgrade, the iPad Air retains the stunning Ultra Retina XDR display, Wi-Fi 6E, and optional 5G connectivity. It supports the Apple Pencil Pro, Apple Pencil (USB-C), and Magic Keyboard accessories, making it a versatile tool for both productivity and creativity. Additionally, it fully supports Apple Intelligence, enhancing your experience with smarter features and seamless integration.

"The iPad for the rest of us. For most users who want a tablet for gaming or media consumption, the iPad Air strikes the perfect balance. While not as premium as the iPad Pro, it still delivers a beautiful display and robust performance thanks to its M2 processor—and now it's even better with the M3."
