Our take on the Apple 13-inch iPad Air Wi-Fi + Cellular 1TB

The 13-inch iPad Air is Apple's large-screen tablet for people who want a big canvas without the iPad Pro's price and extras. It runs the M4 chip, has 1TB of storage, a Retina display, Touch ID in the top button and Wi-Fi plus cellular for connectivity anywhere. Against the iPad Pro it gives up the tandem OLED screen, ProMotion and Face ID, but it matches the Pro on chip family and beats the base iPad on size, speed and accessories. Owners rate it highly for screen size and speed; the main complaints are its weight and the cost of adding a keyboard.

Questions and answers

Is the 13-inch iPad Air worth it over the 11-inch?
If you mostly work in split screen, draw or watch video, the bigger screen is worth the extra weight. For handheld reading and travel, the 11-inch is easier to carry.
How does it compare with the iPad Pro?
The Air shares the M4 chip but lacks the Pro's OLED screen, ProMotion and Face ID. The Pro is better for color-critical work; the Air covers most other tasks.
Does the cellular model need a separate plan?
Yes. Cellular models need a carrier data plan or eSIM to get online away from Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi-only use works without one.
Does it work with the Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard?
It supports the current Apple Pencil and the Magic Keyboard made for the 13-inch Air. Older accessories for other iPad sizes do not fit.
Is 1TB of storage necessary?
Only if you store large video projects, big game libraries or many offline files. Most users are fine with far less.
What is in the box?
The iPad, a USB-C charging cable and a power adapter. The keyboard, stylus and cellular plan are sold separately.
