Apple 11-inch iPad Air M3 vs Apple iPad Pro 11-inch (M4)

Buy the iPad Air 11-inch if you want a light, capable tablet for notes, streaming, browsing and everyday work at the lower end of the range. Buy the iPad Pro 11-inch M4 if you edit video, draw seriously or want the best screen and fastest chip Apple sells in this size. The Pro has the better display (tandem OLED, 120Hz ProMotion), the newer M4 chip, Face ID and Thunderbolt, and it is thinner and lighter. The Air is the sensible pick for most people; the Pro is the step up for heavy creative work.

• Choose the iPad Air 11-inch if you want a thin, light tablet for notes, media and everyday productivity and do not need an OLED screen or Thunderbolt.
• Choose the iPad Pro 11-inch M4 if you edit video, draw or work in pro apps and want the best display, the fastest chip and Face ID.
