Apple has unveiled its latest iPad Air, featuring the powerful M3 chip alongside a newly designed Magic Keyboard, bringing significant performance and usability enhancements to the tablet lineup.

The introduction of the M3 chip marks a substantial upgrade to the iPad Air, with Apple highlighting improvements in performance efficiency and graphics capabilities. According to the company, the iPad Air with M3 is nearly twice as fast as its M1 predecessor and up to 3.5 times faster than the model with the A14 Bionic chip. “iPad Air is so popular because of its unmatched combination of powerful performance, portability, and support for advanced accessories, all at an affordable price,” stated Bob Borchers, Apple’s Vice President of Worldwide Product Marketing.
