Is the iPad Air 5 deal worth it from Amazon?
The iPad Air 5 or 2022 model is the first non-pro tablet with a powerful M1 series chipset. This puts the iPad Air 5 on par with the more expensive 12.9-inch and 11-inch iPad Pro. It has amazing battery life and a USB-C port for fast data transfer to boot. Likewise, support for the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil 2 is a big plus given the low price.
In addition to a premium and sleek build, the iPad Air 5 features a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display that matches the resolution of both Pro iPad models. There’s also a 12MP camera on the front and back that can record 4K video, while there’s a quick TouchID placed on top.
