Apple has introduced new 11 -inch and 13 -inch models with the M3 chip. The new iPad Air can pre-order on Tuesday and will start on March 12th.
The device starts at $ 599 for the 11 -inch model and $ 799 for the 13 -inch model. It comes in four colors: blue, purple, star and gray space, with 128GB, 256GB, 512GB and 1TB configurations.
While the new iPad Air supports Apple Intelligence, it doesn’t have Apple’s newest chip, which is the M4. However, Apple reports that the iPad Air with M3 is almost 2 times faster than the iPad Air with M1 and up to 3.5 times faster than the iPad Air with A14 Bionic.
It is worth noting that Apple has shared comparisons with older iPad models, not the m2 chip iPad air last year.
Apple also introduces an up -to -date magical keyboard featuring a larger trackpad, along with a new range of 14 keys that allows easy access to features such as screen brightness and audio volume controls. It is magnetically connected and the smart link immediately connects power and data without the need for Bluetooth. In addition, there is a processed aluminum joint and a USB-C link for charging.
The new Magic keyboard starts at $ 269 for the 11 -inch model and $ 319 for the 13 -inch model. Comes in white.
Apple says that the iPad Air with M3 is up to 35 percent fastest for multilevel CPU workflows from the iPad Air with M1. It also has a 9 -core GPU with up to 40 percent faster graphics over M1.
In addition, Apple reports that the M3 neuronal engine is up to 60 percent faster for AI -based workloads compared to the M1.
The technological giant also points out that it has informed the iPad with twice as storage storage and the A16 chip, which provides a leap in performance for daily work. The new A16 iPad is almost 30 percent faster than its previous generation. Apple says users will see a 50% improvement in overall performance compared to the A13 Bionic iPad. The company also claims that the A16 chip makes its new iPad up to 6 times faster than the best-selling tablet Android.
“For all of the students who take notes with Apple Pencil Pro, to travelers and content creators who need strong productivity on the go, iPad air with M3, Apple Intelligence and the new Magic keyboard are getting flexible and value at the next level,” said Bob Borchers, Vice President of the world.
