The 2022 iPad Air is driven by the brand's super-powerful M1 chip for super-fluid response, features elegant all-screen design, a 12MP Ultra Wide front camera with Centre Stage, and is compatible with the 2nd generation Apple Pencil (sold separately). It only weighs around 460g so is ideal to take the power of iPad with you. And everything you watch, read, or play looks fantastic on its Liquid Retina display.
The power of M1
Now in iPad Air, Apple's M1 processor delivers up to 60% faster performance than the previous model, arming you with the potential of a creative and gaming powerhouse. You'll be able to move swiftly between multiple apps, and enjoy the immersion of high-intensity gaming. And the 16-core Neural Engine accelerates machine learning for higher creativity.
Liquid Retina display
With narrow borders and elegant rounded corners, the Liquid Retina display features True Tone, P3 wide colour and anti-reflective coating, consistently making text sharp and colours vivid.
Ultra Wide camera with Centre Stage
The iPad Air's 12MP ultra wide front camera features Centre Stage. It automatically pans to keep you in frame as you move around, and when others join or leave the call, the view expands or zooms in automatically. Meanwhile, the rear Wide camera is 12MP too, and the M1 chip supports Smart HDR 3 for higher quality images.
Secure Touch ID
Touch ID is integrated into the top button for fast, easy and secure authentication. So you can use your fingerprint to unlock your iPad or quickly and securely make a payment. Your fingerprint information stays on your iPad - it's not shared with anyone, even Apple, helping to ensure that your personal information remains private.
Supports Apple pencil
iPad Air is compatible with the second-generation Apple Pencil (sold separately). It attaches magnetically and charges wirelessly, so it's always with you when you need it.
All day battery life
The iPad Air will keep you going for up to 10 hours of surfing the web on Wi-Fi or watching video off a single charge.
Wireless communication
Built-in Wi-Fi makes it easy to connect this tablet to the internet, whether that's through your own home network, Wi-Fi at work or a public connection. Bluetooth will let you send files and folders wirelessly between Bluetooth devices, and stream music to compatible speakers or headphones.
Additional information: manufacturers often update their Operating System (OS) software over the course of a device's lifespan - this means that your product might ship with a more advanced OS than specified.
