The lightning‑fast M4 chip with 50 percent more unified system memory elevates performance for all the things you love to do on iPad Air. It’s an AI powerhouse, enabling the AI features and capabilities you use every day to get things done faster, effortlessly. And the GPU architecture delivers even more fluid advanced graphics whether you’re working, streaming, creating, or gaming. All with amazing efficiency for all‑day battery life.
iPadOS and apps. Fly right through it all.
iPadOS 26 introduces Liquid Glass, a stunning new design with a vibrant look and game-changing enhancements that put iPad Air productivity on a new level. A reimagined, intuitive windowing system gives you greater power and flexibility than ever before. Run pro apps, play high-performance games, and take on creative projects of any size with a natural, touch-first experience.
Apple Intelligence. Effortlessly helpful every day.
iPad Air is built for Apple Intelligence, the personal intelligence system that helps you create, communicate, and get things done effortlessly. With groundbreaking privacy protections, it gives you peace of mind that no one else can access your data — not even Apple.
Apple Intelligence enables delightful ways to express yourself visually. Turn a rough sketch into a related image with Image Wand. And create new images based on descriptions, suggested concepts, and even a person from your Photos library with Image Playground.
Writing Tools help you find just the right words and transform the way you communicate. Proofread your text, rewrite different versions to get the right tone, and summarize selected text with a tap.
With the Clean Up tool in the Photos app, you can easily remove unwanted distractions in your photos. Apple Intelligence identifies background objects so you can delete them with a tap for the perfect shot — while staying true to the original image.
Two sizes. Infinite possibilities.
You can choose between an 11-inch and a 13-inch iPad Air, each with a gorgeous, high-resolution Liquid Retina display that brings everything you do to life. Both displays deliver a brilliant, responsive, and color-accurate viewing experience.
Connectivity. Far and away faster.
Your games, streaming content, and workflows go wherever you do with the better performance and reliability of Wi-Fi 7,8 Bluetooth 6, and Thread — all enabled by N1, our new wireless networking chip. And you can easily connect to external displays, drives, and devices with USB-C.
The new C1X cellular modem supports 50 percent faster data speeds at greater efficiency while maintaining worldwide 5G coverage. So you can securely access files, communicate with collaborators, and back up data while out and about.8 And eSIM enables a fast, convenient, and secure way to activate a cellular data plan directly on your device.
Apple Pencil Pro. Engineered for limitless creativity.
Apple Pencil sets the standard for how drawing, painting, handwriting, and note-taking should feel — intuitive, precise, and magical. All with pixel‑perfect precision, low latency, tilt sensitivity, and support for palm rejection. And Apple Pencil Pro adds even more capabilities to bring your ideas to life like never before.
Magic Keyboard. The keys to your best work.
Magic Keyboard — available in black or white — is the perfect companion for iPad Air. It delivers an amazing typing experience and a trackpad for precision tasks in a sleek, portable design. The keyboard includes a 14‑key function row, a USB-C connector for pass‑through charging, and front and back protection for your iPad Air. The floating cantilever design smoothly adjusts to multiple viewing angles, and a large glass trackpad expands how you can work with iPadOS.
Cameras. Capture your imagination. And everything else.
Advanced front and back cameras make it easy to shoot and edit incredible content in a snap. Capture audio using the built-in dual mics and play back the rich sound using landscape stereo speakers. And experience more dynamic video calls with Center Stage.
