Our take on the Apple 13-inch iPad Air M4 Wi-Fi + Cellular 512GB

The 13-inch iPad Air M4 is Apple's large-screen mid-range tablet, sitting below the iPad Pro but above the base iPad. It pairs the M4 chip and more unified memory with a 13-inch Liquid Retina display, Wi-Fi 6E, optional cellular, and a single USB-C port. It suits people who want a big canvas for split-screen work, drawing, streaming and reading, without Pro-level extras like the tandem OLED screen or Face ID. Reviewers generally rate the M-series Air as fast and long-lasting, while noting the 60Hz refresh rate, thicker bezels and accessory costs against the Pro.

Questions and answers

Is the 13-inch iPad Air M4 worth it over the 11-inch?

Yes. It supports Apple Pencil and Apple's keyboard cases for the Air, which are sold separately. Check that the accessory lists the 13-inch Air M4 as compatible.

Cellular keeps it online for maps, email and streaming away from Wi-Fi, which suits commuters and travelers. If it mostly stays home, Wi-Fi only is enough.
