The latest generation, released on March 12, 2025, comes over two years after its predecessor from October 2022. It boasts significant upgrades such as a more powerful A16 processor compared to the A14, an increase in RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and a boost in storage from 64GB to 128GB. Impressively, the launch price of $349 is actually lower than the $399 price tag of the previous model.

The specs that remain unchanged include the 10.9" Liquid Retina display with a 2360x1640 resolution (264ppi), USB Type-C charging, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, and the same camera setup. It's also compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard, allowing you to transform it into a mini laptop for enhanced productivity, making it an excellent choice for students. Plus, it supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
