GPU, with M2 delivering a huge leap in performance for those upgrading from previous-generation iPad Air models.<\/p>\n<p>Apple rates the iPad Air as nearly 50 percent faster than the previous iPad Air with M1 and calls it a powerhouse for creating content, playing games, video playback, and, of course, meetings and video calls.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of video calls, for the first time, the camera is located on the horizontal edge of the iPad Air \u2014 making much more sense in 2024.<\/p>\n<h3>AI Integration<\/h3>\n<p>The new iPad Air features a 16-core Neural Engine that is 40 percent faster than the M1, which Apple says will allow on-device <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/definition\/8181\/machine-learning-ml\">machine learning<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>How this plays out will need to wait for road tests, but Apple promises intelligent iPadOS features such as &#8220;Visual Look Up&#8221;, &#8220;Subject Lift&#8221;, or &#8220;Live Text&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Visual Look Up allows you to search the world around you via camera or by using AI to scan images, Subject Lift allows AI to identify and manipulate subjects within an image or video, and Live Text allows you to &#8216;grab&#8217; text from an image.<\/p>\n<p>While these features have existed in various forms elsewhere, we expect developers and Apple to increase the power of AI within the Air as time passes.<\/p>\n<p>That said, Apple pointed to the ecosystem of apps that include advanced AI features that will benefit from the increased processing power on the Air, such as using <strong>Auto Enhance<\/strong> in <strong>Photomator<\/strong> or analyzing athletic performance in <strong>Onform<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"ipad_air_storage\">iPad Air Storage<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3>128GB &#8211;

Which One Should You Go For?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The need for an iPad Air upgrade is becoming increasingly apparent as two years have passed since its last refresh, leaving its current specifications somewhat dated.<\/p>\n<p>This gap has led to confusion among consumers, who often find it challenging to distinguish between the iPad Air and the Pro models, frequently opting for the more economical Air version.<\/p>\n<p>However, this choice has limitations, notably the current base model&#8217;s mere 64GB of storage and underwhelming battery life.<\/p>\n<p>These constraints significantly limit the device&#8217;s utility for downloading entertainment for travel, engaging in gaming, or managing substantial work files and editing tasks.<\/p>\n<p>The existence of such a constrained model raises questions about its place in the lineup, underlining the pressing need for an update that addresses these shortcomings and redefines iPad Air&#8217;s value proposition in a highly competitive market.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"should_i_upgrade_to_the_ipad_air_6\">Should I Upgrade to the iPad Air 6?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Choosing to upgrade to the iPad Air 6 depends on your current iPad version and unique requirements.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re holding onto an older tablet that is starting to slow down, the iPad Air 6, with its larger display option, increased storage options, and faster M2 chip, seems like an obvious next step.<\/p>\n<p>But the big question is whether these enhancements are compelling enough reasons for you to upgrade. For some, these improvements will significantly impact their daily usage, making the iPad Air 6 an attractive upgrade.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"the_bottom_line\">The Bottom Line<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The iPad Air 6 makes a compelling case for an upgrade, even for those on the most recent 2022 iPad Air.<\/p>\n<p>The extra screen space of the 13-inch is welcome, particularly if your budget will not stretch to the Pro model. The potential unlocking of AI features is likely to really start to get noticed from this device onwards.<\/p>\n<p>While the device is away from being in everyone&#8217;s hands, we think this is a worthy re-invention of the ever-popular Air range.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"faqs\">FAQs<\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"man_faq_sec\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/FAQPage\"><\/time><section class=\"ms_faq ms_card \" ><div itemscope itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\"><div class=\"accordionButton\"><h3 itemprop=\"name\">When is the new iPad Air 6 coming out?<\/h3> <\/div>\n<div class=\"accordionContent\" itemscope itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\" style=\"display:none;\"><p itemprop=\"text\">The iPad Air 2024 release date is May 15, 2024.<\/p>\r\n                <\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class=\"ms_faq ms_card \" ><div itemscope itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\"><div class=\"accordionButton\"><h3 itemprop=\"name\">How much will the iPad Air 6 cost?<\/h3> <\/div>\n<div class=\"accordionContent\" itemscope itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\" style=\"display:none;\"><p itemprop=\"text\">The price entry for the base model of the iPad Air 6 is $599.
