Apple unveiled two exciting iPad updates this week, both launching March 12th, with pre-orders available now. Meet the M3 iPad Air, starting at $599, and the new 11th-generation iPad, starting at $349. While these are iterative upgrades rather than complete overhauls, they boast enhanced power compared to their predecessors, making them compelling choices for prospective buyers.

For everyday tablet users, the 11th-generation iPad is a perfect fit. It boasts a speedy A16 chip, a significant upgrade from the previous generation's A14. Storage has also doubled to a starting 128GB at no extra cost. Aesthetically, it remains largely unchanged, offering the same color options: silver, blue, yellow, and pink. While internally superior, it notably does not include Apple Intelligence.

If you can forgo Apple Intelligence (and many iPhone 16 users can attest to its dispensability), the 11th-gen iPad offers ample power for everyday tasks such as gaming, browsing, streaming, social media, email, and more. It's built to handle these activities effortlessly for years to come.

The new iPad Air occupies a sweet spot in Apple's tablet lineup. More powerful than the base iPad, but not as robust as the iPad Pro, it's ideal for users needing extra computing power. Available in 11-inch and 13-inch options, it features Apple's powerful M3 chip and, unlike its base model counterpart, supports Apple Intelligence. It's also compatible with a new Magic Keyboard (available at Apple) featuring function keys and a trackpad.

Where to Buy Previous Generation iPads

With numerous iPad generations released, here's a quick look at previous models still available in 2025. New releases often make older models more attractive price-wise.
