They’ve been a long time coming, but Apple finally unveiled brand new versions of the iPad Pro and iPad Air – and, boy, were they worth the wait.
At its ‘Let Loose’ event at Apple Park in May, the company not only revealed Apple silicon M2-powered versions of the iPad Air in 11-inch and new 13-inch sizes, it also showed off its thinnest ever iPad Pro, powered by a whole new class of Apple silicon: the M4. Joining these devices were a new Apple Pencil – dubbed the Apple Pencil Pro – plus brand new versions of Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro.
Trailed with animated versions of the Apple logo with an Apple Pencil at their centre, the event kicked off with the iPad Air. Now powered by the same M2 chip as found in last year’s iPad Pro, the new Air come in four colours: Blue, Purple, Starlight and Space Grey with prices starting at £599 for an 11-inch Wi-Fi model with 128GB onboard storage, twice what the entry-level Air had before. Step-up models with 256GB, 512GB and 1TB of storage cost £699, £899 and £1,099 respectively. Also available are Wi-Fi + Cellular versions with 5G onboard at a cost of £749 (128GB), £849 (256GB), £1,049 (512GB) and £1,249 (1TB).
Joining the 11-inch Air is a new, larger 13-inch model with a 2732x2048 pixel Liquid Retina display, giving you even more room to work and play. Like its 11-inch sibling, the 13-inch is available in Wi-Fi only or Wi-Fi + Cellular versions with prices starting at £799 for 128GB of storage and topping out at £1,449 with 1TB of storage and a 5G modem onboard.
