While the eyes of the Apple community are riveted on the last M4 chip, the firm has just announced the arrival of a new iPad Air with an old chip.
It’s a big surprise that Apple released this week: a new iPad Air M3 has just been just announced by the firm. While several rumors reported the arrival of a new MacBook Air M4 computer, Apple took the leaks short by revealing two new tablets including the iPad Air M3.
This new tablet represents the state of the current market well by offering only a few small improvements so Apple is far ahead of the competition in this segment. The iPad Air M3 was not necessarily the expected product of the moment, but is already one of the best touch pads on sale.
The iPad Air M3 is a net performance gain, but not the best Apple tablet
It is not very complicated to present the news of the iPad Air M3 compared to the latest generation. Apple has taken over the now iconic design of the iPad Air to add one of its latest chips, the M3, which has a good performance gain compared to the M2 chip on the old generation.
The new iPad Air M3 is offered in two formats: 11 and 13 inch with a Liquid Retina screen whose brightness rises to 500 or 600 nits. Four storage options are displayed on the Apple site: 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB and 1 TB. Four colors are available: blue, mauve, stellar light and steel gray.
Little particularly crisp things to put yourself under the tooth. Apple is content to update the iPad Air with one of its latest chips, in particular capable of supporting Apple Intelligence. Some will however be surprised that it is not the last chip dated the firm, the M4, but the firm is now used to reserving its latest chip for its pro tablet.
