move ever closer to simply being touchscreen MacBooks, except with a sense of flexibility that comes with the tablet format. They can be used for anything from your handheld bedroom TV to a serious workstation.
The camera setup is the same as last time, too, though the front-facing lens is now on the long edge, which makes more sense for video calls. One small tweak, which also affects this year’s iPad Pro, is that the 5G version is now e-SIM only. No more physical SIM cards. The M1 was already a massively powerful chip for a tablet, but the M2 is noticeably quicker. Demanding games run better, artificial intelligence upscaling of images in Photomator is faster, and jumping between apps is smooth and responsive.However, chances are you’re not upgrading from a two-year-old M1 tablet, and going from an older iPad to this model is a massive leap.
Though Apple also makes an explicitly “Pro” iPad, there is nothing stopping the Air from being a productivity powerhouse. Office software, music production, art creation or splitting the screen between two supported apps all work great, even with a video call running in the corner. The tablet can sit on the existing Magic Keyboard accessory when you need a laptop-like layout.As for the 13-inch model, which starts at $1300, it’s the same device in every respect – except for the screen.
At 5.3 millimetres thick and 444 grams for the 11-inch model, or 5.1mm and 479 grams for the 13-inch, it’s by far the slightest full-size iPad we’ve seen, which takes the wind out of the Air’s sails. The result is images that can contain absolute pitch black as well as very bright colours right next to each other, and in HDR videos and photos, you can get what feels like a torch of brightness shining from the highlights or streaking across the screen.
