Shame about the lack of a 120Hz screen and Face ID.Ī15 SoC is faster than the iPad Air's. If you're happy to pay a bit more, the iPad Air 4 is a top choice at its size category. It also has USB-C charging, and sports the more powerful A14 Bionic and 4GB of RAM, all wrapped in a thin and light design. The only real drawback compared to the basic iPad is the 7MP front camera. Some of the Air's advantages over the standard iPad include an all-screen design without a home button (Touch ID is built into the power button) a fully laminated, 10.9-inch 2360 x 1640 Liquid Retina display with a wide color gamut and an anti-reflective coating a 12MP rear camera and Magic Keyboard, Smart Keyboard Folio, and 2nd-gen Apple Pencil support. At $599, it's not as affordable, but it offers many of the Pros' best features at a more reasonable price. If you want a few features that the standard iPad doesn't have but don't need the iPad Pros' power, the Air is an interesting middle ground. A brilliant combination of price, performance, and features make this an easy top choice. You also get iPadOS - the most complete tablet OS available. It comes with Touch ID, it hasn't upgraded to USB-C from the Lightning port like its siblings, and a 20W charger is included. It's not the state-of-the-art M1 found in the iPad Pro, but there's plenty of power here with good efficiency.Įlsewhere, the 8MP rear cam and 10-hour battery are unchanged, but the 1.2MP front cam has been upgraded to an ultra wide 12MP there's support for the first-gen Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard. The upgrade to the A13 Bionic SoC offers improved CPU and GPU performance. The stereo speakers at the bottom offer good audio output and there's also a 3.5mm headphone jack. It does lack several features of the more expensive models, but the iPad is colorful, crisp, and great for content consumption of all types. The fantastic 2160 x 1620 Retina display remains, offering 500 nits of brightness and the same 264 PPI as the iPad Pros. It also has the same starting MSRP of $329 for 64GB, or $479 for 256GB. The two tablets look nearly identical, and the biggest changes are the newer version's upgrade to the faster A13 Bionic SoC and 64GB of base storage. This 9th generation iPad has minor differences over the 2020 model, but it's definitely worth the money if you're upgrading from an older iPad. While several options are available at various price points, the $329 iPad is our pick as the best for most people. The Apple iPad comfortably retains the tablet crown, despite the vast improvements made by Android and Windows tablets over the last few years. Lacks the display features of other iPad models and power of Pro models. Storage starting at 64GB is a notable upgrade over predecessor's 32GB.īezels remain chunky.
Unbeatable combination of price, performance, and features.
