The New 2025 Apple iPad Air with M3 Chip Just Dropped to a New All-Time Low Price

The iPad Air M3 is the newest generation iPad Air that was released earlier in March. The biggest upgrade is the Apple M3 chip, which is about 20% faster than the M2 chip found on the previous generation model. The inclusion of the M3 chip also means that the new iPad Air now supports Apple Intelligence, which isn’t available on any earlier iPad Air model.

The rest of the specs are pretty much identical to its predecessors. The iPad Air boasts an 11″ 2360×1640 (264ppi) Liquid Retina display with P3 Wide Color and True Tone that’s better quality than the screen found on the standard iPad. Storage capacity starts at 128GB but 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB capacities are also available (and they’re all currently discounted). The iPad Air is compatible with the Apple Pencil Pro, Apple Pencil (USB‑C) and the Magic Keyboard. In fact, the newer model Magic Keyboard that was released earlier this year is specifically catered to the iPad Air.
