As for the stylus experience, the iPad A16 supports the basic Apple Pencil USB-C, while the iPad Air M3 can be used with both the Pencil USB-C and Apple Pencil Pro. Here are the differences:

The iPad Air 11 with M3 is fine for certain tasks, but it can’t be your cheaper MacBook with a touchscreen. It’s better than last year’s model, but good enough may not be enough to justify the upgrade for lingering M1 iPad Air users.

Now, if you’re looking for the more powerful pro-grade M4 chip, the model mentioned above at $1,749.99 is your best bet – it is now $249 off the going rate to deliver the lowest price we have tracked to date.
