Launch price (US)
$1,299›$1,299same
What does this mean?
The price Apple charged in the US on launch day for the Wi-Fi model with the lowest storage, before tax.
This is not what the iPad costs today. Cellular models, more storage, Apple Pencil and keyboards all cost extra. Older models drop in price over time, so check the used and refurbished links for current prices.
Connections1 gain
Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi 6E›Wi-Fi 7
What does this mean?
Wi-Fi generations. Each new one handles more devices at once and higher speeds: Wi-Fi 4 (2009), Wi-Fi 5 (2014), Wi-Fi 6 (2019), Wi-Fi 6E adds a new, less crowded radio band, Wi-Fi 7 is the newest.
You only get the extra speed if your router supports the same generation. With an older router, the difference is small.
Chip & storage1 change
Chip
M4›M5
What does this mean?
The chip is the iPad's brain. It runs every app, processes photos and video, and handles the AI features.
A newer chip makes the iPad faster, keeps it fast for more years, and decides which new features it can get. Apple Intelligence, for example, needs an M1 chip or later, or the A17 Pro.
