What Makes the iPad Air M3 Special

Apple’s M3 chip powers the latest iPad Air, offering a big leap in performance over the older M1 variant. The company claims that the M3 chip brings a clear jump in performance compared to the previous generation. Everyday tasks feel faster, and it handles things like 4K video editing, gaming, and creative apps more smoothly. The chipset comes with an 8-core CPU, a 9-core GPU with hardware-based ray tracing, and a 16-core Neural Engine for AI-related tasks.

Despite the new processor, the iPad Air M3 keeps the familiar slim and lightweight design. It still uses Touch ID integrated into the power button and supports the new Magic Keyboard, which now includes a 14-key function row for quick access to brightness, volume, and app controls. The keyboard, however, is sold separately.

The iPad Air M3 comes in two sizes – 11-inch and 13-inch – both featuring Liquid Retina displays. The smaller model offers 500 nits brightness, while the larger one peaks at 600 nits, with True Tone and P3 Wide Colour support.

The front 12MP ultra-wide camera supports Center Stage for video calls, while the rear 12MP sensor can shoot 4K videos at 60fps and slow-motion clips at 240fps. Apple includes a 20W USB-C adapter and charging cable in the box.
