    "With a powerful CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine, it’s nearly 2x faster than iPad Air with M1 chip."
    I'm really looking forward to see any AUv3 M1-M3 comparison in AUM/Loopy Pro.

    It still has Touch-ID, I am happy.

    That means I don't need to hunt down a new Air 6 13-inch and can wait with the purchase.

  • busaudiobusaudio

    Virtually no difference beside the CPU and some raytracing:

    Interesting. I'd seen speculation that the new Air would launch with M4 and skip M3 because of some issues... but I can't remember what these issues were :#

    New base iPad seems pretty legit. Think I'll try to talk my one friend who's stuck using iPhone to get the 512gb version of the base iPad since he doesn't do visual art. 😂

  • yellow_eyezyellow_eyez

    I bet it’ll yield what I guessed last time
    (M1 rules)

    And btw it doesn’t use pencil 2 or Magic Keyboard 1 so I’m out

    (Rather wait for the iPad m7 or m9)

    I'm still haven't scratched the limit of my 2020 iPad Pro 12.9". I wonder if the new M3 air 13" is an upgrade.

    Sure the computing power is higher but the screen and speaker of Pro are still better I guess. But honestly if I have to buy a new iPad it will be most likely an Air.

    They really are trying to artificially make the gap to the Pros wide, eh? Not much to get excited about with this upgrade.

    +1

    Couldn’t be happier with my Air 5 with its M1 and 8 gigs of RAM, it handles everything I throw at it.

    I have an iPad Pro M1. I don’t think I’ve ever used Apple Intelligence.

    Comparing Macbook Pros with the base M2 and M3 chips, the M3 provides ~18% performance uplift (single core). Its nice to see the Air will get a similar uplift vs the M2 at the same cost, even with tariff weirdness.

    If you are running projects with many oversampled FX & voices, this might be a great option. Especially if you want to keep your buffer (latency) low.

    Before this release, I would have recommended the M4 iPad Pro for power users if it was in budget (I bought one myself), but now I don't think I'd recommend the M4 iPad Pro to anyone on this forum unless you really have money to burn or need it for other niche uses. Or maybe if your DAW takes good advantage of multi-core (none of the ones I use do).

    The M3 to M4 Macbook Pro provided a 21% uplift. But is 21% worth ~$400 dollars when choosing the M3 iPad Air vs M4 iPad Pro? Maaybe if you mostly use high-resolution sampled instruments and you want to spend $1600 for the 1TB/16GB Pro model, but I'm unconvinced that 8 vs 16 ram is limiting anyone doing iOS music production.

    (The new base model iPad uplift is also really nice to see. If Apple someday starts putting laminated displays in the base iPads I'd maybe consider one).

    is the A16 good enough to run any IOS music app? I'm so tempted.

    Me too, has anyone tried it?

  • NoiseHorseNoiseHorse

    I’m wondering where the M-1 and M-2 Air prices are going to go? I’m also wondering at what point being so much faster than last year’s miraculous improvement is worth it?

  • 128BPM128BPM

    I need advice as well - the current lineup is so confusing.

    Is the base iPad with A16 strong enough for basic Procreate work?

    Any insight would be helpful
    Thanks

    Take it for what it’s worth, but it’s not. Not yet. I think in about 4-5 years an upgrade might be needed but the m1/2 should be good for another 5 yrs minimum
