Apple's latest affordable tablet is better than ever. The iPad (11th Gen) doesn't shake up the formula, but this is the Apple tablet for most. In our iPad 11 review, we said this tablet has significantly improved performance thanks to its A16 chip, longer battery life and bigger 128GB starting storage. While it's nearly identical to its predecessor and doesn't come with any Apple Intelligence features, that doesn't stop it from being the ideal iPad for most people.

We're big fans of this small tablet's incredibly portable design and long battery life (it lasted 10 hours in our battery life tests). It comes with speedy performance thanks to Apple's A17 Pro chip, and has a gorgeous 8.3-inch (2,266 x 1,488) Liquid Retina display. You also get 12MP cameras on the front and back and Wi-Fi 6e support. In our iPad mini 7 review, we said it delivers the full iPad experience in a tiny size.

The latest iPad Air packs Apple's M3 processor, an 11-inch LED (2360 x 1640) display, 128GB of storage, 12MP rear camera, and 12MP front camera. The tablet packs a more powerful 8-core CPU, which makes the M3 up to 35% faster for multithreaded CPU workflows than the iPad Air M1. There's also a 9-core GPU on board with 40% faster graphics performance than the M1. In our iPad Air M3 review, we said its fun Apple Intelligence features, reliable battery life (9 hours with/ 41 minutes), and overall thin design make it a winning Apple slate.

This larger iPad Air sports the same M3 processor as its 11-inch counterpart, but it's coupled with a 13-inch LED (2732 x 2048) display. Otherwise, it packs the same 128GB of storage, 12MP rear camera, WiFi 6E support, and 12MP front camera. The new CPU and larger display should make this iPad a favorite for gamers.
