The current generation model, released on March 12, 2025, comes over two years after its predecessor from October 2022. Key upgrades include a more powerful A16 processor (versus A14), increased RAM (6GB versus 4GB), and higher base storage (128GB versus 64GB). Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is actually lower than the previous generation's $399.

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