Released in March, the 7th gen iPad Air M3 is the latest model, succeeding the 6th gen by just a year. The primary upgrade is the transition from the M2 to the M3 chip, which offers a performance boost of about 20% and is only 20% slower than the iPad Pro's M4 chip. The iPad Air retains the stunning Ultra Retina XDR display, Wi-Fi 6E, and 5G cellular connectivity. It's also compatible with the Apple Pencil Pro, Apple Pencil (USB-C), and Magic Keyboard, making it an excellent iOS hybrid laptop option. Plus, it supports Apple Intelligence, enhancing its utility.

Jacqueline Thomas, in her review of the 2024 iPad Air model, praised it as "**The iPad for the rest of us**," noting that it strikes the perfect balance for those who use their tablet for gaming or movie-watching. With its beautiful display and the powerful M2 chip, it offers a premium experience without the need for the top-tier iPad Pro.
