    I have the M1 iPad Air, don’t know what year that is because Apples naming of everything is confusing. But that thing is a champ, I don’t know why you would need an M4 unless you are one of those people editing heavy UHD videos on it.

    I don’t want to make a decision based on Apple’s promise of an AI. I’ll upgrade my basic ipad when AI is actually there
