The Apple iPad Air combines thoughtful design with capable hardware to support a wide range of everyday and professional tasks.
Here’s how each specification can make a difference to your experience:
You can choose between an 11-inch or a 13-inch Liquid Retina display. Both versions offer high resolution, wide colour (P3), and True Tone for natural visuals in any light. The anti-reflective coating reduces glare, making it easier to use outdoors or in bright environments.
At the heart of the iPad Air is the Apple M3 chip, which includes an 8-core CPU and a 9-core GPU. This combination ensures that apps launch quickly and run smoothly. If you plan to edit videos, play games, or multitask across apps, the iPad Air can manage it efficiently.
With 8GB of RAM, the tablet is well-equipped for smooth performance in most scenarios. Storage options go up to 1TB, which is helpful if you deal with large files, media libraries, or offline content. Those using the iPad Air for design work or video projects may prefer higher storage variants.
The 12MP rear camera allows you to scan documents, record in 4K, or take high-quality photos with ease. On the front, the 12MP Centre Stage camera stays focused on you during video calls — especially helpful for online classes, meetings, or recording tutorials.
The iPad Air offers up to 10 hours of web usage on Wi-Fi, and up to 9 hours on cellular networks. This makes it reliable for a full day’s work or study without needing frequent recharges.
Running on iPadOS 18, the device brings multitasking features, Apple Pencil integration, and access to the latest privacy and productivity tools. It will also continue receiving regular software updates over several years.
You’ll get support for Wi-Fi 6E for faster wireless access, and 5G in cellular models. Whether you're downloading apps or attending video meetings, the connectivity is designed to keep up. The USB-C port supports fast data transfer and video output.
The Wi-Fi + Cellular variants come with eSIM support, which is ideal for users who want to stay connected on the go without depending on Wi-Fi networks.
Despite its powerful internals, the iPad Air is still light and easy to carry. The 11-inch model weighs around 460 grams, while the larger 13-inch version is around 616 grams. Its slim profile makes it a travel-friendly device for work, school, or entertainment.
The Apple iPad Air price varies depending on the screen size and storage capacity. Both 11-inch and 13-inch models are available in multiple storage options.
