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 M3 chip. The M3 chip offers a performance boost of about 20% over its predecessor and is only about 20% slower than the iPad Pro M4 chip. The iPad Air retains its 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. Additionally, the iPad Air supports Apple Intelligence.

"**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 perfect choice. It may not be as premium as the iPad Pro, but with its beautiful display and the still-powerful M2 processor, it's more than enough."
