iPad buying guide 2024: Pro, Air, or Mini?

Apple unveiled updated versions of the iPad Air and the iPad Pro models on May 7, and discontinued the 9th Gen iPad, streamlining the entire lineup.

Here are a few things you need to know before you decide to pick one of the iPads:

iPads come in three sizes

Even though the 10th Gen iPad is 0.1-inch smaller than the 11-inch iPad Air and iPad Pro models, iPads are currently available in three sizes, with the iPad Mini with its 8.3-inch screen being the smallest. The 10.9-inch or 11-inch options come next, best suited for most users, and then comes the bigger 13-inch Air and Pro models.
