Why You Should Buy the Apple iPad Air M2 7th gen
While the iPad Air M2 (review) offers a fair upgrade over the iPad Air M1, this tablet is more highly recommended for those coming from earlier iPad Air models or those looking to step up from the standard iPad or iPad Mini. It's a sleek and lightweight machine with an incredible and slightly wider 11-inch Liquid Retina display.
It is aimed at both casual and power users, thanks to the more capable and snappy M2 SoC. This chip offers major processor and graphics enhancements compared to Apple's A-series Bionic chipsets used in iPhones. This means you now have comparable performance to the previous iPad Pro, offering more power for photo and video editing or running apps side-by-side.
With the upcoming iPadOS 26, you can further take advantage of the powerful hardware, as Apple is giving it improved productivity with macOS-like multitasking functions. For instance, you'll be able to resize multiple tabs seamlessly or position them more freely.
The iPad Air M2 also comes with a faster and more stable set of connectivity, including Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. It has familiar 12 MP cameras, which output nice and bright pictures with sharp details. Plus, it has solid battery life despite the speedy chipset onboard. This can stretch more than a day, with some juice to spare on the second day. Charging is also moderately fast via the USB-C port.
