Our take on the Apple iPad Air 10.9 Wi-Fi + Cellular 256GB Starlight

The 2022 iPad Air is Apple's mid-range tablet, built around the M1 chip that Apple says is about 60% faster than the previous generation. It has a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display with True Tone, P3 wide color and an anti-reflective coating, Touch ID in the top button, 12MP front and rear cameras, 5G cellular and 256GB of storage. It works with the Apple Pencil (2nd generation), Magic Keyboard and Smart Keyboard Folio. It suits people who want near-Pro performance in a lighter 462 g body, and it undercuts the iPad Pro on features like ProMotion and Face ID while beating the base iPad on chip, display and accessory support. Owners rate it very highly across tens of thousands of ratings.

Questions and answers

Is the iPad Air M1 worth it over the base iPad?
Yes for most buyers who want a bigger, better display, the M1 chip and support for the Apple Pencil 2 and Magic Keyboard. The base iPad is enough for simple browsing and video.

Yes. It supports the Apple Pencil (2nd generation), Magic Keyboard and Smart Keyboard Folio, all sold separately.
How much storage does it have, and can I add more?
It comes with 256GB built in. There is no memory card slot, so plan on cloud storage or external drives for large files.
What is in the box?
The iPad Air, a USB-C charging cable and a power adapter. The Pencil and keyboards are not included.
