iPad Air with M3: Key Features and Specifications

The M3 chip has new features that foster fast graphic rendering and makes it suitable for gaming, video editing, and a range of other demanding tasks.

Going with a Liquid Retina, Apple maintains a color-correcting experience with the right amount of contrast. iPad Air M3 comes with the standard 10.9-inch and 12.9-inch variants to cater to valid user needs.
3. Improved Camera System
The new iPad Air M3 features a 12MP rear camera, capable of capturing high-resolution photos and 4K videos. The front-facing 12MP ultra-wide camera ensures crystal-clear video calls, making it an excellent device for online meetings and content creation.
4. iPadOS and Software Enhancements
That gives users on iPadOS features like Stage Manager, more multitasking improvements, and better support for the Apple Pencil. Compatible with the new Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard, the iPad Air M3 is the ultimate device for professionals, students, and creatives.
5. Connectivity and Battery Life
The new iPad Air M3 supports 5G connectivity for fast streaming, gaming, and remote work. It also includes Wi-Fi 6E for better nonscreen efficiency. Apple alleges the battery can last up to 10 hours on a charge, making it sturdy for day-to-day use and chores.
Price and Availability in India
The M3-powered iPad Air starts at Rs 59,900 for the base model with Wi-Fi connectivity. The pricing for higher storage variants and the 5G-enabled model is as follows:
- iPad Air 10.9-inch Wi-Fi (Base Model) – Rs 59,900

The new iPad Air M3 is already available for pre-order and its official sale is likely to start soon through Apple’s online store, authorized resellers, as well as leading e-commerce platforms Amazon and Flipkart.
Should You Upgrade to the New iPad Air?
If you’re coming from an older iPad Air or entry-level iPad, upgrading to the M3 version will deliver huge performance gains, better display quality, and improved multitasking features. With 5G, Apple Pencil support, and a larger display option available, it could be an easier sell for professionals, students, and creatives.
If you own a recent M2 iPad Pro or the latest iPad Air, though, the upgrade might not be worth it unless you need all the latest performance improvements.
