These include a more powerful A16 processor compared to the A14, increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and doubled base storage from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is lower than the previous model's $399.

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