M2. Flat-out flies.
The incredibly fast M2 chip brings breakout performance to iPad Air. With a powerful CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine, it’s nearly 50 percent faster than the previous generation. So you can easily plan your house remodel in Trimble SketchUp, play the latest triple-A games like Zenless Zone Zero, or use AI-enabled motion tracking in Onform to fine-tune your golf swing. All with amazing efficiency for all-day battery life.
iPadOS and apps. Get up to something wonderful.
iPadOS is designed to let you do all the things you love easily and powerfully from first touch to finishing touches. Use multiple apps at once, write in any text field, and navigate quickly and efficiently using just your finger, Apple Pencil, or the Magic Keyboard trackpad.
Do it all. All at once.
Stage Manager lets you multitask in new ways by allowing you to overlap and resize windows to look the way you want, so you can easily navigate between them. You can also group apps for specific tasks or projects and arrange them in your ideal layout.
Built‑in apps for all the essentials.
iPad Air comes with powerful and capable apps designed to help you create, connect, and get things done. Browse, edit, and share your images and videos with Photos. Create dazzling presentations with Keynote, and add style with Apple Pencil Pro.
Apple Pencil Pro. Engineered for limitless creativity.
Apple Pencil sets the standard for how drawing, painting, handwriting, and note-taking should feel — intuitive, precise, and magical. All with pixel‑perfect precision, low latency, tilt sensitivity, and support for palm rejection. The all-new Apple Pencil Pro adds even more capabilities to bring your ideas to life like never before.
Magic Keyboard. Type it up in a snap.
Magic Keyboard delivers responsive typing for writing and emailing. And a built‑in trackpad brings the precision you need for tasks like editing a spreadsheet. Magic Keyboard also features a floating cantilever design that lets you attach it magnetically, then adjust it for the perfect viewing angle.
Landscape front camera. Stay front and center.
Now located on the long side of iPad Air, the 12MP Ultra Wide front-facing camera creates a perfect video calling experience — especially when iPad Air is attached to a Magic Keyboard. And with Center Stage, machine learning enables the camera to automatically adjust to keep you centered in the shot.
Advanced back camera. Shoot for the stars.
The 12MP Wide back camera captures vivid photos and amazing 4K videos. And the large, high-resolution Liquid Retina display lets you retouch images, edit your film, and easily share them — all on iPad Air. You can also use the back camera to scan documents and then fill them out with Apple Pencil.
Built-in mics and speakers. Sounds perfect.
Record and play back rich audio with dual studio-quality mics and landscape stereo speakers. The 13-inch iPad Air delivers even better sound quality than the 11-inch model, with double the bass — great for getting immersed in your favorite song.
Connectivity. Wait-less wireless.
Stay connected and productive wherever you are with superfast Wi‑Fi 6E, or choose a fast 5G cellular connection when you’re away from Wi‑Fi.
Connect to displays, drives, and devices with USB‑C.
USB-C gives you fast, easy connections to your go-to accessories like external displays, docks, drives, and cameras. Perfect for quick transfers of large photos and videos.
