Apple has announced new products, including the iPad Air with the M3 chip, the 10th-generation iPad with the A16 Bionic chip, and an updated Magic Keyboard with a larger trackpad. These updates aim to enhance performance and user experience, particularly for productivity and creative tasks.
iPad Air (M3)
The new iPad Air retains the same design and display options as its predecessor, featuring 11-inch and 13-inch Liquid Retina displays with laminated glass and anti-reflective coating. It includes a 12MP front-facing camera (centered) and a 12MP rear camera. The standout feature is the M3 chip, which Apple claims delivers nearly twice the performance of the M1 and is 3.5 times faster than the A14 Bionic. The M3 also supports Apple Intelligence, enabling advanced AI tasks locally. The tablet is available in 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB storage options.
10th-Generation iPad with A16 Bionic
The 10th-generation iPad now comes with the A16 Bionic chip, offering 30% faster performance compared to the previous generation and up to 50% faster than the A13 Bionic. However, it does not support Apple Intelligence. The base model starts at 128GB of storage, with options for 256GB and 512GB, and is available in yellow, blue, pink, and silver.
Magic Keyboard
The updated Magic Keyboard features a larger trackpad for improved precision and 14 function keys for quick access to settings like brightness and volume. It attaches magnetically and uses a Smart Connector for power and data transfer, eliminating the need for Bluetooth. The keyboard also includes a USB-C port for charging and is available in white for both 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Air models.
