iPad Air (2020) versus iPad (2020)

Apple has revealed the newest iterations of its iPad line-up, with a significant performance boost for the standard 10.2in version and a new design for the iPad Air. We see how the two compare and offer advice on which one you should buy.

PRICE

The iPad (2020) comes in two storage variants, each with either just Wi-Fi or Wi-Fi and cellular configurations. Here are the prices:

32GB: £329

128GB: £429

32GB, cellular: £459

128GB, cellular: £559

This is good news for UK consumers as it means the entry-level model is now £20 cheaper than the previous version, although sticking with 32GB of storage does seem a particularly mean move.

Prices see a sharp increase with the new iPad Air models, presumably due to the major redesign that the platform has been given this year. Here’s a breakdown of the range:

64GB: £579

256GB: £729

64GB, cellular: £709

256GB, cellular: £859

This means that the base Air model is now £100
