At least the price of the Magic Keyboard is now made cheaper. But why couldn't they make the cutout large enough so it could fit iPad Pro 2018-2022?
Looks like some ugly cutout work will need to be done.

2x faster than M1, wow, for doing…. what exactly? LOL.
Anyway, you can get refurbished 256GB M1 iPad Air from Apple for $500. Seems like the better deal.

What a pointless update, the iPad Air doesn't need a faster chip (it makes no real-world difference whether you're on M1, M2 or M3), it needs a better display, a better OS, better battery life, and more versatility.

It feels like this release was completely unnecessary other than for promoting the new keyboard. I don't know, I think a two to three year release schedule is better for these tablets.

This feel more like an attempt to now take away attention from the awfully priced iPhone 16e so that they do have to track back or it gain enough traction in media to let unfavorable opinions get too loud. Makes sense since Apple usually wants the products to stay in limelight for longer close to launch but abrupt iPad launches is pretty self evident.

what's the point of an M3 processor when you have a locked down toy OS?

L973, 9 hours agoHow does the vanilla (overdue 2024) have a slower chip than... moreLong story short, since iPad 5 released in 2017, Apple has positioned base iPad as the cheapest offering of iPad family.
iPad Air and iPad Mini fill the slot that was vacated by base iPad for 5 years before iPad 5 was released and Apple dropped its tier to lowest. Base iPad was a higher tier of iPad series from the OG iPad (iPad 1) to iPad 4. The OG iPad Air then was released as both direct and indirect replacement for iPad 4 back in 2013 (direct in terms of years refreshment of iPads, indirect in term of lineage and serial). Tbf, it was a quite confusing year for iPads on those years when iPad base and Air was consolidated into one serial in 2013 then Apple separated them again in 2017/2019.

The iPad Air still feels awful for what it costs, thanks to its ancient 60Hz display (iPad pros have been on 120Hz since 2017)
Should definitely buy an old gen iPad Pro instead

How does the vanilla (overdue 2024) have a slower chip than the Mini (2024)? I don't follow.
