When it comes to new Apple devices, you want to believe that behind the sleek exterior there is always something more — attention to detail, thoughtfulness, and comfort that you feel not just in words but in everyday moments. The new iPad Air 13 (2025) is exactly that. At first glance, it has the same familiar silhouette, still thin and light, but once you hold it in your hands, it becomes clear: this is not just an evolution, but a fine-tuning of almost every element. This is a tablet where everything feels in its place — from the body to the screen, from the hardware inside to the camera that doesn’t just shoot but cares about your frame. All of this isn’t about technology for technology’s sake, but about making the device understandable, convenient, and pleasant at every stage of use.

Design

The iPad Air 13 (2025) is instantly recognizable — the same stylish, thin, and lightweight body made from recycled aluminum, pleasant to hold in your hands. But if you look closer, there are quite a few nice changes in the details that make the gadget even more convenient and modern. The thickness remains incredibly modest — just 6.1 mm, and the weight of around 617 grams allows you to comfortably hold the tablet with one hand.

One of the most noticeable innovations is the front camera, which is now located not on the side, but in the center of the long edge. It sounds like a small detail, but in practice, it’s a real find. This way, the tablet looks more natural during video calls, especially when you hold it in landscape orientation like a laptop. It’s a small but very human improvement that shows Apple’s attention to everyday use details.

Regarding the color palette, Apple stays true to itself: four calm but expressive shades. “Shining Star” suits those who love light but not boring tones. “Space Gray” is a fail-safe classic. Purple adds freshness, and blue simply looks very stylish without being flashy. All colors seem carefully selected so the gadget can be both a work tool and a fashionable accessory.

The bezels around the screen have become a bit narrower but are still noticeable enough to prevent accidental touches. The power and volume buttons are positioned for easy pressing in any orientation. The back panel is smooth, without unnecessary inscriptions — only a minimalist logo and a neat camera in the corner. Everything looks very cohesive and well put together.

Display

The iPad Air 13 display opens up an exciting digital world at first glance. It features a 13-inch Liquid Retina panel with a sharp resolution of 2732×2048 and a pixel density of 264 ppi — the image is detailed and bright. Brightness up to 600 nits allows you to use the tablet even in sunny weather, and special anti-reflective coating and laminated screen construction minimize glare, making text and graphics highly readable.

Thanks to True Tone technology, the screen adjusts to the surrounding lighting, and the P3 color gamut makes the image vivid and realistic. The device is compatible with Apple Pencil Pro and Apple Pencil with a USB-C connector, making it an excellent choice for drawing, note-taking, and working with graphics.

Although there is no ProMotion support with a 120 Hz refresh rate like the higher-end iPad Pro model, the standard 60 Hz is perfectly suitable for comfortable everyday use.

Technical Specifications

Inside the new iPad Air 13 (2025) lies powerful hardware that makes the tablet not just beautiful but truly productive. Its “heart” is the Apple M3 chip, built on a 3-nm process. This means it is both powerful and energy-efficient. The eight-core CPU handles multitasking excellently — whether working with documents, video editing, or dozens of browser tabs. The nine-core GPU outperforms many laptops — everything from games to 3D modeling runs smoothly and quickly.

There is 8 GB of RAM — essentially the sweet spot: enough for any everyday task, apps do not restart even if you constantly switch between them. Storage is available in four options: 128 GB for those mainly using the tablet online, 256 or 512 GB if you plan to store lots of photos, videos, or documents, and a hefty 1 TB for those who turn the tablet into a full-fledged workstation.

The battery capacity is 36.59 watt-hours, which in practice translates to about 10 hours of real usage — reading, watching movies, calls, or web browsing. There are plenty of usage scenarios, and importantly, the tablet doesn’t overheat and runs steadily all day. Thanks to the energy efficiency of the M3 chip and iPadOS optimization, the charge holds confidently even with active use of the camera, stylus, or keyboard. It’s worth noting that charging happens via USB-C, which means fast charging and universal accessory compatibility.

Wi-Fi 6E is supported, which is especially convenient if you have a modern router — the connection is faster and more stable. There is also a 5G option for those who need to stay online on the go. The built-in Touch ID fingerprint scanner remains on the power button — simple and convenient, it works instantly. And all this runs quietly, with no fans — completely passive cooling inside, so the tablet doesn’t make any noise at all.

Camera

The cameras on the iPad Air 13 (2025) aren’t about professional shooting but about convenience and quality when needed. The main camera here is 12 megapixels with an f/1.8 aperture. It sounds modest but works excellently: photos come out sharp, colors natural, and in good lighting, shots please the eye — whether it’s a document, a page of a book, or a landscape during a walk. At night, of course, the detail drops a bit, but Apple traditionally optimizes image processing well, so evening shots still turn out quite decent.

Video recording supports up to 4K at 60 frames per second, and if you ever want to shoot a home video, tutorial, or just capture a moment on vacation — the tablet handles it confidently. Video stabilization, though not optical, but digital, works well: the picture doesn’t jerk, movements are smooth, and autofocus quickly locks on the needed subject.

And the front camera is another plus, especially for those who often use video calls. It is also 12 megapixels, with an f/2.4 aperture and an ultra-wide 122-degree field of view. This means you will fit in the frame even if the tablet is far away, and if someone joins you — the frame still looks natural. The camera supports the proprietary Center Stage feature — technology that “tracks” you and gently shifts the image so you always remain in the center of the screen. Especially convenient if you are showing something or just moving around the room during a call.
