Apple iPad Air 5th Gen. M1 Processor 64gb (Wifi) 2022, The iPad Air 5th Gen (Wi-Fi Only) features a fully-laminated, antireflective 10.9″ LED-backlit 2360×1640 “Liquid Retina” display (264 ppi, 500 nits) surrounded by a thin black bezel and and packed in a thin case with rounded corners and flat sides. The back is one of five metallic color options — dark “Space Gray”, a warm gray “Starlight”, Pink, Purple, or Blue.
This iPad Air is powered by a 3.2 GHz Apple M1 processor with 8 cores (4 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores), an 8-core GPU, and a 16-core Neural Engine. It has 8 GB of RAM and is equipped with either 64 GB or 256 GB of flash storage. It also has “Touch ID” authentication sensor built into the top button as well as support for the Apple Pencil 2nd Gen (A2051, MU8F2AM/A, US$129) that conveniently charges via a magnetic connection on the side of the device. It has a front-mounted 12 megapixel “Ultra Wide” “FaceTime HD” camera that shoots up to 1080p video — complete with support for the clever “Center Stage” technology that automatically pans and zooms to keep subjects in frame — and a rear-mounted 12 megapixel “Wide” camera that shoots up to 4K video.
In addition to a USB-C port, other connectivity includes 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) with HT80 with MIMO capability and Bluetooth 5.0. It has dual microphones and stereo speakers. Battery life is reportedly 10 hours of “surfing the web on Wi-Fi or watching video.”
Compared to its predecessor, the iPad Air 5th Gen (Wi-Fi Only) — and its cellular-equipped brethren — have faster processors, improved connectivity, and better cameras.

Apple has been part of the ConnectED initiative since 2014, pledging $100 million of teaching and learning solutions to 114 undeserved schools across the country. We’ve donated an iPad to every student, a Mac and iPad to every teacher, and an Apple TV to every classroom. And we’ve implemented a process that provides planning, professional learning, and ongoing guidance so every school can experience the transformational power of technology.
Many Apple ConnectED schools do not have a strong network or a dedicated technology department. So before any products are delivered, Apple Project Engineers conduct a full survey of the school’s existing wireless infrastructure and help install or upgrade a network. To help every teacher become comfortable with new technology, the Apple Education team provides a series of workshops designed specifically for educators. We start by helping them integrate iPad, Mac, and Apple TV into their curriculum and lessons, then show them how to create original and engaging books, presentations, and other learning materials. Compared to the previous year, open leadership roles filled by women globally increased by 10 percentage points overall, and by 8 percentage points in R&D. And in the U.S., open leadership roles filled by people from underrepresented communities increased by 16 percentage points overall, and by 9 percentage points in R&D.
