Apple recently revealed their new iPad Air and iPad Pro models,
so everything that's changed,
which now comes in two sizes,
11 and 13 inches, and new shades of purple and blue along with starlight and space gray, which means pink is no longer available.
It's previous M1 chip is being replaced by M2, delivering 15% faster processing and 25% faster graphics.
With a neural engine that's 40% faster, allowing for more powerful air.
It's also getting a repositioned front camera,
moving from the portrait edge to landscape,
similar to the MacBook and 10th generation
Prices iPad Air starts at $5.99 for the 11-inch model and $7.99 for the 13-inch model.
Next is iPad Pro, which is significantly thinner and lighter than before.
The-inch model is 11% thinner and 5% lighter, while the 13-inch model is 21% thinner and 15% lighter.
That means these iPads are not only thinner than an iPod Nano,
but the thinnest product Apple's ever The next big improvement came to the display,
which uses tandem OLED panels instead of a single LED panel,
to deliver almost twice the brightness as before,
at 1000 nits for standard content,
and 1600 nits for HDR content, while also doubling the contrast ratio from 1 million to 2 million to 1.
There's also a new nanotexture glass option for the top two storage configurations, delivering a matte viewing experience to reduce reflections and glare.
This option is an extra $100, and most reviewers aren't big fans.
Since it reduces the brightness of the new OLED panel,
and it doesn't add the tactile texture Mini wanted to make drawing with Apple Pencil feel more natural.
Instead, Minio recommending a more affordable and versatile matte screen protector like this one from our website.
which are tiny micro beads, that add resistance and texture when using apple pencil, making the display feel like tactile paper instead of slippery glass.
So you get a matte display with a perfect texture for writing and drawing for a reasonable price.
This screen protector works with new and old iPads,

Next is the M4 chip, which is being used for the first time on iPad.
It's built on second-generation 3-nanometer technology and delivers up to 50%
faster CPU performance than the previous M2 with 4x faster 3D rendering.
This enables hardware-accelerated ray tracing and games on iPad for the first time, and editing of 5 streams of 4K progress.
While the ultra wide-angle camera was removed from this generation,
Apple added adaptive true-tone flash,
which uses AI to detect documents,
take multiple photos with flash, and then stitch the best parts together, ensuring no shadows are cast on your document.
The front-facing camera is still 12 megapixels,
but it's relocated from the portrait edge to the landscape edge, just like on MacBook and iPad Air.
prices for iPad Pro starts at $999 for the 11-inch model and $12.99 for the 13-inch model.
Also, an improved magic keyboard starting at $2.99 was made just for iPad Pro, which is thinner and lighter than before, featuring aluminum palm rest,
larger trackpad with haptic feedback, and a full function.
Lastly, is the Apple Pencil Pro for $129, which has a squeezed gesture with haptic feedback
that brings up a tool pallet,
a gyroscope that allows you to roll the pencil to reorient the brush or pen you're using,
and also find my support so you can easily locate Apple Pencil.
So that's everything new with iPad Air and iPad Pro.
