- Is the A16 iPad worth it over the iPad Air?
- For browsing, streaming, notes and light work, yes. The Air is worth the step up if you edit video, draw seriously or want the laminated anti-reflective screen and newer Pencil.
- Does it work with the Apple Pencil?
- Yes, it supports the USB-C Apple Pencil and the first-generation Apple Pencil with a USB-C adapter. It does not support the Apple Pencil Pro.
- How long does the battery last?
- Apple rates it for about 10 hours of web browsing or video over Wi-Fi. Most owners get through a full day of mixed use.
- Is the screen good for drawing and notes?
- It is fine for notes and casual sketching. The non-laminated display and 60 Hz refresh rate make it less precise for professional drawing than the Air or Pro.
- What is in the box?
- The iPad, a USB-C charging cable and a power adapter. The Pencil and keyboard are sold separately.
- Can it replace a laptop?
- For email, documents, video calls and streaming, often yes, especially with a keyboard. For heavy multitasking or desktop software, a laptop or an M-chip iPad is a better fit.
