Our take on the Apple iPad Air 10.9 Wi-Fi 256GB Purple

The 2022 iPad Air (5th generation) is Apple's mid-range tablet with a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, the M1 chip and 256GB of storage. It sits between the base iPad and the iPad Pro: it gets the M1 and the Pencil 2 / Magic Keyboard support of the Pro, but skips the Pro's 120Hz ProMotion screen and Face ID. Reviewers consistently call it the sweet spot of the lineup for students, note-takers and casual creators who want laptop-class speed without Pro bulk.
