How to Pre-Order the New Apple iPad and iPad Air M3
Apple has announced upgrades to its iPad lineup, and both new devices are now available for pre-order. The base iPad starts at $349, while the iPad Air M3 is available starting at $599.
The new base iPad features an upgraded A16 chipset, as well as double the amount of base storage (up to 128GB from 64GB). This increased storage capacity comes without a price increase, making this model a more attractive option for those looking to upgrade. The display has also been updated, increasing in size from 10.9-inches to an 11-inch screen with support for Smart HDR 4. However, it’s worth noting that the Apple Intelligence feature is not included on this device.
Those who opt for the iPad Air M3 will be treated to a more substantial upgrade. This model also boasts the M3 chipset, as well as Apple Intelligence support, a landscape-oriented front-facing camera, and Wi-Fi 6E and 5G connectivity. The new iPad Air tablets are also compatible with the updated Magic Keyboard, which features a larger trackpad and a new 14-key function row that provides quicker access to settings like brightness and volume controls.
