Apple Officially Unveils iPad Air M3 in 11″ and 13″ Sizes, Starts at $599

Apple CEO Tim Cook teased a product launch earlier this week, and now, we know it’s officially the iPad Air M3. Available in 11″ ($599) and 13″ ($799) sizes, the M3 is claimed to be up to 35 percent faster for multi threaded CPU workflows than its predecessor with M1, while its 9-core GPU offers up to 40 percent faster graphics performance.

The iPad Air M3 is built for Apple Intelligence, starting with Photos, which features a Clean Up tool that makes it easy to remove distracting elements in images, and natural language search allows users to search for just about any photo or video by simply describing what they are looking for. Inside the Notes app, users can make notes more visually immersive by transforming rough sketches into actual images, simply by drawing a circle around the sketch with their Apple Pencil. Available in Space Gray, Blue, Purple and Starlight colors, with up to 1TB of storage, beginning on March 12.

iPad Air is so popular because of its unmatched combination of powerful performance, portability, and support for advanced accessories, all at an affordable price. For everyone from college students taking notes with Apple Pencil Pro, to travelers and content creators who need powerful productivity on the go, iPad Air with M3, Apple Intelligence, and the new Magic Keyboard take versatility and value to the next level,” said Bob Borchers, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing.
