Apple launched the 5th-gen iPad Air back in 2022, so it's been a good two years of waiting for us to see the company's next generation of mid-range tablets. Well, the wait is over, as the 2024 iPad Air has now been announced.
The 13" iPad Air dimensions, on the other hand, are 280.6 x 214.9 x 6.1mm , which is almost the size of the 2022 13-inch iPad Pro. It weighs less than the Pro model, though, coming in at 617 grams vs 682 grams . Another small change has to do with the Apple Pencil. The new Airs now come with Apple Pencil Hover, which shows a small pointer on the screen when you bring the Apple Pencil close enough, helping with the accuracy.
The 12MP ultrawide front-facing camera of the 2022 iPad Air is arguably the more important one, given that we are talking about a tablet here. Apple has changed this one, as we mentioned above, moving it from the top bezel to one of the side bezels. Besides making it more comfortable to have video calls while holding the tablet horizontally, this will also help keep you centered in the frame.
As for charging, Apple did not mention any upgrades, so we expect the same as with the 2022 Air, with a slower charge on the 13" as it has a larger battery.So, in short, the main differences between the 2024 edition of the iPad Air and the previous generation from 2022 is the new 13-inch iPad Air with its larger display and battery. There's also a performance upgrade in the form of Apple's M2 chip, which replaces the M1 that the 2022 iPad Air came with.
