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 protects your privacy at every step. It’s integrated into the core of iPad through on-device processing, so it’s aware of your personal information without collecting your personal information. And with groundbreaking Private Cloud Compute, Apple Intelligence can draw on larger, Apple-designed server‑based models, running on Apple silicon, to handle more complex requests while protecting your privacy. 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, 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. 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.
