Value for money à la Apple. With the Apple M4, there is brute performance in the iPad Air 2026. In what is now the eighth generation, Apple's mid-range tablet is even slightly cheaper in Europe, but otherwise brings only marginal innovations. We take a look at whether the iPad Air is still worth it in our detailed test.

Even more power. While the Apple iPad Air 11 (2026) has been given a performance upgrade thanks to its M4 chip and boasts smaller updates like Wi-Fi 7, its other features, such as its display, cameras and design, remain largely unchanged. In our test, we’ll show just how powerful the new model really is during everyday use and whether it’s worth making the switch, given its price and features.
