Our take on the Apple 13-inch iPad Air M4 Chip Wi-Fi - Purple

The 13-inch iPad Air with the M4 chip is Apple's large-screen tablet for people who want laptop-class speed without a MacBook. It pairs a big Liquid Retina display with a 12MP Center Stage front camera, Wi-Fi 7 and 5G options, and support for Apple Pencil Pro and the Magic Keyboard for iPad Air. Against the iPad Pro it gives up the tandem OLED screen, ProMotion and Face ID, but it costs far less and runs the same apps. Buyers who want a big canvas for notes, drawing, streaming or split-screen work tend to be happy; those chasing the best display or a true laptop replacement should look at the Pro or a MacBook.

Questions and answers

Is the M4 iPad Air worth it over the iPad Pro?
For most people, yes. It runs the same apps and has the same 13-inch size, but the Pro adds an OLED screen, ProMotion and Face ID for a much higher outlay.
Does it work with Apple Pencil Pro and Magic Keyboard?
Yes. It supports Apple Pencil Pro and the Magic Keyboard for iPad Air, both sold separately.
How is the M4 chip different from the M2 in the previous iPad Air?
The M4 brings more CPU and GPU power and better efficiency, which shows in heavier apps, games and Apple Intelligence features.
Does it have 5G?
Only the cellular model does. The Wi-Fi model relies on Wi-Fi 7, which is faster and less congested than older Wi-Fi standards.
Is the 13-inch screen good for drawing and notes?
Yes. The large canvas suits sketching, handwriting and split-screen notes, and Apple Pencil Pro adds pressure, tilt and squeeze controls.
What is in the box?
The iPad Air, a USB-C charge cable and a power adapter. The Pencil and keyboard are not included.
