Visually, you have to look very carefully to notice that the new iPad Air isn’t an iPad Pro: the angular, nearly all-screen case design was previously reserved for the more expensive tablets, but Apple has found room for an Air in that exclusive club.<\/p>\n
This isn’t the only area where this release sees the Pro and Air lines come closer together – in terms of CPU, in fact, the Air model is technically two generations ahead. But let’s take things one step at a time.<\/p>\n
In our iPad Air (2020)<\/a> review, we test and evaluate the new tablet’s design, new features, performance, battery life and tech specs, and help you decide if this is the iPad for you.<\/p>\n The new Air starts at \u00a3579\/$599. It’s noticeably more expensive than the Air released last year, although as we will discover, it offers numerous upgrades to justify this.<\/p>\n There are four configurations to choose from:<\/p>\n You can buy direct from Apple<\/a>, or browse our guide to where to buy the iPad Air (2020)<\/a>.<\/p>\n More storage is always better, and this statement is just as true for Apple’s tablets as it is for smartphones. Especially if you like to edit photos or videos on the big screen, which quickly racks up the gigabytes.<\/p>\n Nevertheless, when it comes to equipping the iPad Air with flash memory, Apple is sticking to its strategy: you either get a little, or you get a lot! You only have the choice between 64 or 256GB. This is a difference from the Pro models, which are available with 128 or 512GB, or even with 1TB.<\/p>\n A similar differentiation between the Air and Pro lines can be found with the RAM allocation. The new A14 Bionic chip is here supported by 4GB of RAM, whereas the A12Z Bionic in the Pro models has 6GB. You can tell that there are significant differences under the hood, which is why it’s perhaps better not to compare the iPad Air directly with the Pro models.<\/p>\n A better – and we’d say fairer – comparison would be with the direct predecessor, the iPad Air from 2019<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nPrice & availability<\/h2>\n
