iPad Air M3

The iPad Air M3 is basically that sweet spot for students: super portable, a solid aluminium build, and M3 performance that gets you really close to iPad Pro territory. In my use, it handled everything from multitasking and note-taking to heavier tasks like editing without any lag.

Pros

+M3 chip delivers iPad Pro-level performance for multitasking
+Thin, minimal aluminium design that’s easy to carry daily
+Sharp, vibrant Liquid Retina display for study and media

Cons

-No Face ID (Touch ID only)
-60Hz refresh rate (no ProMotion)
-No OLED option
