If your current iPad has started to slow down, we have good news. Apple has just confirmed that its popular tablet series is getting an update, with three new models offering significantly improved performance. The best part is that Apple is adding more power without increasing the price.
The most notable change is the upgrade to the 11-inch and 13-inch Air models, which now feature a more powerful Apple M3 chip instead of the older M2. This new chip delivers up to 40 percent faster performance than previous versions. So whether you use graphics-intensive apps, play games on the go, or edit a lot of video on your tablet, these iPads will help you get through it all without slowing down.
Apple also claims that the faster Neural Engine in the M3 means iPad Air users will be able to enjoy advanced AI capabilities in iPadOS. That’s great news, especially given that Apple Intelligent is becoming a big part of the company’s strategy; these new Air tablets will be ready for the future.
Apple Intelligence, which comes pre-installed on new devices, allows iPad users to create unique images, automatically enhance photos, and even write emails. It also offers improved Siri features and full ChatGPT integration.

Other extra features on these Air tablets include a Center Stage intelligent camera that tracks you around the room during video calls, long battery life, fast charging, and compatibility with the latest Apple Pencil stylus.
The new Air models are also more comfortable to use thanks to the new Magic Keyboard case with an expanded trackpad and useful function keys.
If you're interested in the Air, the 11-inch iPad Air is available from £599, the same price as last year's M2 model. The larger 13-inch variant will cost £799 and goes on sale next week.
If that sounds too expensive, Apple has also confirmed an update to its entry-level iPad. This more affordable device now features an A16 chip and also has twice the storage of before. That means you can get the 128GB version for just £329.
“What makes iPad Air so popular is its unrivaled combination of performance, portability, and support for modern accessories, all at an affordable price,” said Bob Borchers, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. “For everyone from college students taking notes with Apple Pencil Pro to travelers and content creators who need high-performance on the go, iPad Air with M3, Apple Intelligence, and the new Magic Keyboard takes versatility and value to new levels.”
