Apple iPad Air 11-inch (M3, 2025) Wi-Fi

M3 Power in a Lighter, More Portable Frame

The 2025 iPad Air moves up to Apple's M3 chip, putting genuine laptop-class performance — an 8-core CPU, 9-core GPU with hardware-accelerated ray tracing, and 8GB of RAM — into a tablet that still weighs just 460 grams. The 11-inch Liquid Retina display adds P3 wide color and an anti-reflective coating on top of the True Tone support, so photos and video look accurate whether you're editing or just watching.

Camera-wise it keeps things simple but capable: a 12MP rear Wide camera for stills and up to 4K video, and a 12MP Ultra-Wide front camera with Center Stage that keeps you centered on FaceTime calls automatically. Touch ID in the top button handles secure unlocking and Apple Pay, and the M3's media engine adds hardware-accelerated ProRes support for anyone doing serious video work on the go.

This generation also adds support for Apple Pencil Pro, including pencil hover, alongside the standard USB-C Apple Pencil — and paired with the Magic Keyboard, it turns into a genuinely capable laptop replacement for writing, note-taking, and light editing. Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 round out the connectivity, with up to 10 hours of battery life for a full day away from a charger.
