Is the iPad Air 4 still worth buying?

For browsing, streaming, notes and drawing it remains capable thanks to the A14 Bionic. If you need a 120Hz screen or the longest software support, a newer Air or Pro is the better buy.

Does the iPad Air 4 work with the Apple Pencil 2?

Yes. It supports the second-generation Apple Pencil, which attaches magnetically to the side to charge and pair. The first-generation Pencil does not work with it.

Does the iPad Air 4 have USB-C or Lightning?

It has USB-C. That lets you connect drives, cameras and external displays, and charge with standard USB-C cables.

How much storage should I get?

64 GB is tight if you keep games, photos or downloaded video. 256 GB, as in this listing, gives comfortable room for apps and media.

Is the iPad Air 4 good for drawing?

Yes for sketching and note-taking. Artists who want the smoothest pen response may prefer a ProMotion iPad Pro.

What comes in the box?

Retail units include the iPad and a USB-C power adapter; the cable and any Pencil or keyboard are sold separately. Used listings may include only the tablet and charger.

Our take on the iPad Air 4 (2020)

The iPad Air 4 is Apple's 2020 mid-range tablet: a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, the A14 Bionic chip, Touch ID in the top button and a flat-edged aluminum body that weighs about 1 lb. It moved to USB-C and works with the second-generation Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard. It sits between the base iPad and the iPad Pro, and as a 2020 model its price now depends heavily on condition and storage.
