About the Apple 11-inch iPad Air Wi-Fi

The 11-inch iPad Air with the M2 chip is Apple's mid-range tablet, sitting between the base iPad and the iPad Pro. It has an 8-core CPU, 16-core Neural Engine, 256 GB of storage, Wi-Fi 6E, Touch ID in the top button and support for the Apple Pencil Pro with hover. Apple rates the battery at up to 10 hours. It is the step up for people who want Pro-level speed without the Pro's OLED screen or Face ID.

What people mention
  • PerformancePraisedOwners say the M2 chip keeps apps and games running smoothly with no lag.

  • BatteryPraisedUsers report getting through a full day of browsing and video on one charge.

Questions and answers

Is the M2 iPad Air worth it over the base iPad?
Yes if you want the faster M2 chip, a laminated screen and Apple Pencil Pro support. The base iPad is cheaper and fine for simple browsing and streaming.
How is it different from the iPad Pro?
The Air has a 60 Hz LCD, Touch ID and two speakers. The Pro adds a 120 Hz OLED screen, Face ID and a faster chip, at a higher price.
Does it work with the Apple Pencil Pro?
Yes. It supports the Apple Pencil Pro with hover, and also works with the USB-C Apple Pencil. The Pencil is not included.
How long does the battery last?
Apple rates it at up to 10 hours of web browsing or video. Owners generally report a full day of mixed use.
Is 256 GB enough storage?
For most people, yes. It holds plenty of apps, photos and downloaded video. Heavy video editors may want more, but this model tops out at 256 GB.
When is the best time to buy?
Prices swing widely over the year. Watch the price history and buy when it drops near its recent low rather than at a mid-range figure.
