iPad Air (2022)

From £569 FROM Apple, apple.com/uk FEATURES 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display with True Tone, M1 chip, 64 or 256GB of storage, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.0, Wi-Fi+Cellular option, USB-C port, 12MP Wide camera (rear), 12MP Ultra Wide camera (front)

Everything feels slightly slicker, quicker and smoother on the M1-powered Air, than on the A14 Bionic version

Its all-screen, flat-sided design not only aped the premium iPad Pro, but it came packed with features, while also replacing the previous model’s Lightning port with USB-C and shifting Touch ID from the now-removed Home button to the Power button. It was a remarkable. Its successor, the new fifth-gen iPad Air on test here, shifts the dial in small but significant ways.
