The 7th generation iPad Air was released in March and represents the current model. It's only one year newer than the 6th generation, with the main upgrade being the transition from the M2 to the more powerful M3 chip. The M3 chip offers a 20% performance increase over its predecessor and is only about 20% slower than the iPad Pro's M4 chip. Beyond the processor, it 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, effectively turning it into an iOS hybrid laptop. It also supports Apple Intelligence.

"The iPad for the rest of us. For most people who need a tablet for gaming or watching movies, the iPad Air strikes the perfect balance. It may not have the premium feel of the iPad Pro, but with its gorgeous display and the still-powerful M2 processor, it's more than sufficient."
