Here Are The Key Differences Between iPad Models

An Apple iPad can be a great investment: You get a screen that's bigger than an iPhone's for watching videos or reading, it's more portable than a laptop and it can be used for drawing, writing, internet surfing and so much more. The downside? The tablets don't come cheap, and with Apple releasing so many models it can be confusing to figure out which one best fits your needs. If you've been thinking about taking the plunge and getting an iPad for yourself, we're here to help. We've broken down the key differences among all the models available to buy new. From the highlights of each version to the bottom line, take a look at our guidance below and find the iPad that will give you the most bang for your buck. The crowd-pleasing 10th-generation iPad Highlights: Best price and value, no Apple Intelligence, offers smaller storage sizes, different color options than other models, less powerful A13 bionic chip processorWe think this one is a winner, and we're not alone. Not only has the 10th-generation iPad earned a high score and stamp of approval from Consumer Reports, but Wirecutter named it their top pick for most people in 2024 — as did Wired and CNET in 10th-gen iPad is the lowest-priced model currently being manufactured. It has an A14 bionic chip, which is an older and less efficient processor than some of the newer models' M-series chips, but should still be plenty usable for most people. This iPad also lacks Apple Intelligence features that use generative AI for things like ChatGPT integration, "Genmoji" and more. But considering how much storage Apple Intelligence takes up, and the ambivalence of many Apple customers, its absence may not be a dealbreaker (and is potentially even a plus). Meanwhile, you can still enjoy up to 10 hours of battery life on Wi-Fi, the USB-C port for fast charging and 4K video can get the 10th-gen iPad in four colors and two storage sizes: 64GB or 256GB. It supports the Apple Magic Keyboard Folio, plus the USB-C and first-generation Apple Pencils (but not the second-generation Pencil).Bottom line: At its current price (and even at its list price), this is probably the iPad with the most bang for your buck. If you plan to use the iPad for leisure, rather than as a professional creative, this model probably has everything you it from Amazon for $347.51+. The 2024 iPad Pro with a super-fast processor and more bells and whistles Highlights: Newest and fastest M4 processing chip, more vibrant display, more screen and storage sizes, Apple Intelligence, slightly lighter design, more advanced cameraOn the other side of the iPad spectrum is the latest version of the iPad Pro, which makes more sense for people who aren't on a budget and are looking for a tablet to lean on full-time for work, art creation or other more involved use cases. Equipped with the most efficient and powerful Apple processor, the M4 chip, the iPad Pro also has OLED technology for a more accurate and vibrant display with an anti-reflective coating to reduce glare. Apple Intelligence is included in this model, as is a more advanced rear camera with an ambient light sensor that can help with scanning documents, among other things. The battery life is pretty even with other models at up to 10 hours on of the other big draws of the iPad Pro is the storage capacity and screen size options. You can get an 11-inch or 13-inch iPad Pro, and choose from capacities of 256GB, 512GB, 1TB or 2TB in two different colors. For the two largest capacities, you can also choose between a standard glass display or a matte, nano-texture display to reduce glare even further (though not everyone thinks this is worth the extra cost). The iPad Pro supports the USB-C Apple Pencil and Apple Pencil Pro, as well as the Magic Keyboard for iPad line: The iPad Pro is the fastest, most powerful, most high-tech option among the models. But is it worth all those extra hundreds of dollars? If you plan to use all of the features all day, every day, it could be. But otherwise, this one may be excessive for the average the 11-inch from Amazon for $1,099+ and the 13-inch for $1,185.22+. The 2024 iPad Air, a happy medium between the 10th-gen and Pro Highlights: M2 processing chip, two screen sizes, 128GB storage option (plus three others), Apple Intelligence, pastel colors available, close to the Pro in terms of features but without the price tagWant something a bit newer with more features than the 10th-gen, but can't quite stomach the commitment to the Pro? Enter the 2024 iPad Air. It's not quite the Pro — it runs on a less powerful M2 chip and has a less advanced camera and more standard LED display, among other things — but it's still a noticeable upgrade on the basic iPad. Enjoy an anti-reflective coating on the display, 4K video recording, fast USB-C charging and Apple Intelligence features for a comparatively mid-range price and equal 10-hour battery life. Consumer Reports gave this model perfect marks on convenience, performance, display and photo and video, for reference. Unlike the ninth-gen, 10th-gen and Pro, this iPad also offers a 128GB storage size. (Wirecutter noted the lack of a 128GB option as a flaw of the 10th-gen, because 64GB might be too little but 256GB too much.) That's in addition to 256GB, 512GB and 1TB options. You can get the iPad Air in an 11-inch or 13-inch size in four colors, including two pastels. It supports the USB-C Apple Pencil, Apple Pencil Pro and Magic line: The iPad Air is a nice Goldilocks option if you want more than the basic models have to offer and you're willing to shell out a little more money — but not over $1, the 11-inch from Amazon for $599.99+ and the 13-inch for $789+. The 2024 iPad Mini for a smaller and more portable experience Highlights: Smaller and lighter design (but still thicker than the iPad Pro) that's good for travel or kids, A17 Pro processing chip, Apple Intelligence, 128GB storage option, pastel colors availableAt only 8.3 inches, the petite dimensions of the 2024 iPad Mini's screen certainly stand out from the pack, and can be a draw if carrying around a larger tablet isn't as convenient for you. Beyond this distinguishing factor, the location of the front camera (at the top in portrait mode rather than landscape) and the A17 Pro chip, the Mini is otherwise quite similar to the iPad Air in the previous slide. That means it has Apple Intelligence features, a Liquid Retina display with an anti-reflective coating, 10-hour battery life, 4K video recording and USB-C A17 Pro chip is newer and faster than the 10th-gen's A14 but slower than any of the M-series chips. You can get the iPad Mini in four colors, including two pastels, and three storage capacities (128GB, 256GB and 512GB). It supports the USB-C Apple Pencil and Apple Pencil Pro, as well as Bluetooth keyboards — but notably not the Apple Magic Keyboard (this could be due to its smaller size, which doesn't make as much sense with a keyboard as the larger iPads).Bottom line: Travelers, commuters, kids and anyone who'd like to have a screen bigger than a phone but smaller than a laptop can enjoy the Mini. But if size isn't a dealbreaker, this is pretty similar to the Air, which is about the same price on sale right now with a faster processing chip and other it from Amazon for $489+. The discontinued fifth-generation iPad Mini Highlights: A15 bionic chip, no Apple Intelligence, option for 64GB storage, pastel colors including pink availableThere aren't too many differences between the 2024 iPad Mini and this discontinued 2021 model. They have the same camera, very similar Liquid Retina displays, USB-C charging and a 10-hour battery major difference is the processing chip, since this model has an older A15 chip that isn't as efficient. Other differences include a lack of Apple Intelligence features, and different storage capacities and colors. Storage on the 2024 Mini starts at 128GB, so the 2021 Mini's 64GB option could be appealing, especially if you don't plan to store much on here. This generation also offers a pink iPad Mini, which the newer one does not (it replaced the pink with pastel blue). It supports the USB-C and second-generation Apple Pencils, and like the 2024 Mini, only supports third-party Bluetooth now, we can't recommend the 2021 Mini. This is mostly because many of the color and capacity options are not in stock, and the price is too high to justify when compared to the 2024 Mini. If your heart is set on this one, you'll probably want to wait until there's a restock and a major line: If you specifically want a pink miniature iPad with 64GB of storage and no more, the 2021 Mini can fit your needs like no other model can... but you'll have to wait for it to come back in stock. Otherwise, this model is currently very expensive, so you might as well upgrade to the 2024 iPad Mini for something better and it from Target for $499.99+ (available in three colors). The discontinued fifth-generation iPad Air Highlights: Older M1 chip, more color options but fewer storage capacity and screen size options, Apple Intelligence, not a great price right nowYou can still buy the discontinued fifth-generation iPad Air, the last one released before the 2024 model, at Target and Walmart — but we don't recommend it, especially because right now it's more expensive by a substantial model runs on the older M1 chip, and has a lot of the features that the current iPad Air does: Apple Intelligence, the Liquid Retina display, USB-C charging, a 10-hour battery life and the same camera (though the front camera is at the top of the fifth-gen iPad, whereas the 2024 model has it centered on the side so you can take video calls in landscape mode, attached to an Apple Magic Keyboard).There's both less and more choice with this model, too. It comes in one more color than the 2024 Air (pink) but is only made in one size with a 10.9-inch screen. The storage capacity is similarly limited to either 64GB or 256GB. This model supports the USB-C and second-generation Apple Pencils, plus the Magic Keyboard and Smart Keyboard line: Considering this older model is currently more expensive than the newer iPad Air, get the new one it from Walmart for $619+ (available in two colors).

AI is dividing the fortunes of the Magnificent Seven

The 'Magnificent Seven" stocks are starting to grow apart. They are not quite heading to splitsville, but some of the market's tech heavyweights have made more headway in artificial intelligence—and that has put a strain on their relationship. At least with respect to their recent relative stock performance. 'They are in therapy," said Dan Morgan, senior portfolio manager at Synovus Trust, of the Magnificent Seven's diverging paths. Alphabet, Apple, Meta Platforms, Microsoft, Nvidia and Tesla have lorded over the stock market in recent years, linked by the outsize role they share in the economy's future and the significant slice they comprise in the benchmark S&P 500 index. This year, though, shares of Nvidia, Meta and Microsoft have climbed about 20% or more, while Apple and Alphabet are down 16% and 2%, respectively. Each will soon deliver a quarterly scorecard to investors, with Alphabet and Tesla set to report earnings Wednesday, followed by Meta, Microsoft and Apple the following week. 'It was inevitable. They all can't run in lockstep forever because they do different things," said Jamie Cox, managing partner at Harris Financial Group. 'Now, the winners and losers stratification is upon us." The Magnificent Seven still have a strong grip over the market. Their stocks led the tariff-induced selloff in April, and then helped lift the market all the way back during its march toward new highs. Those big names represent about 35% of the S&P 500, according to Dow Jones Market Data, and investors don't expect that to change soon. One major reason the seven were grouped together in the first place was that those seven companies were spearheading the AI push, Michael Hartnett, the Bank of America strategist who is credited with coining the term 'Magnificent Seven" in 2023, has said. But 'right now, we're seeing a pretty big divergence in the fundamentals," said Ivana Delevska, founder and chief investment officer of Spear. Apple, for instance, has failed to woo investors with its AI efforts. Last year, it introduced its Apple Intelligence service to great fanfare, only to come up short on its promises. The company has said it would share updates about its AI-powered Siri in the coming year, meaning it might not reach the market until late 2026. Morgan, of Synovus, said he recently trimmed his Apple holdings for the first time in years. When a client was looking to make a donation, he recommended gifting Apple equities, something he wouldn't have done years ago. Other investors have reduced Apple positions in favor of Nvidia or Microsoft. 'Apple is on a park bench eating an apple, watching the AI revolution go by on the highway," said Dan Ives, managing director of Wedbush Securities and one of Wall Street's biggest AI bulls. Google's parent company, Alphabet, faces antitrust scrutiny in the U.S. and Europe, along with mounting concern that AI chatbots such as ChatGPT will eat into Google's dominant search business. Some investors see plenty of upside potential. Google has a significant trove of user data available, something analysts say could help advance its AI models beyond competitors. Its AI overviews, which appear atop some search-results pages, are gaining traction, as are its Gemini AI tools. 'We believe that the perceived 'missteps' in AI with Google will correct and that Google will figure this all out," wrote Jeff McClean, chief executive officer of Solidarity Wealth. Tesla, a ticker long beloved by individual investors, has diverged from its Magnificent Seven counterparts for very different reasons, including flagging electric-vehicle sales and Elon Musk's foray into politics. Musk has pushed to transform Tesla, down 18% this year, from an EV maker into a robotics and artificial-intelligence company. The CEO recently said Tesla shareholders would vote on investing in xAI, one of his other companies. 'In the Mag Seven, there's the cool kids table—and Apple, Tesla and Alphabet, they're by the kitchen at the bad table, wishing they were at the cool kids table," Ives said. The other half of the tech-stock group has continued to reap the rewards of AI optimism. The chip giant Nvidia has been the clearest winner in the AI race thus far. The world's first $4 trillion company has split off from the Magnificent Seven more than any other. Its stock has more than tripled in the past two years. Meta and Microsoft are well-positioned too, investors said. Amazon, whose shares are up 3% year to date, has been affected by tariffs and the uncertainty regarding them. The company has invested in the AI startup Anthropic. Wall Street will be parsing second-quarter results for indications that these large tech companies are continuing to invest big in artificial intelligence. That is important given lofty valuations: Six of those seven companies recently traded at more than 25 times their expected earnings over the next year, compared with an S&P 500 average of 22.35. Alphabet was the only one below that bar. 'Earnings are going to have to be really spectacular to push these stocks significantly forward from here," said Cox of Harris Financial. 'I don't know if that's possible." In the second quarter, the Magnificent Seven are expecting 14% year-over-year net-income growth, significantly outpacing the 3% decline expected for the other 493 companies in the S&P index, according to a recent report from Morgan Stanley. Given that all seven companies have strong exposure to AI, or enough capital to make acquisitions and catch up, it is possible this divergence is temporary, according to some investors. 'The Mag Seven friends could reunite at the party over the next year, but it all depends on how they navigate the AI revolution," said Ives, the Wedbush managing director. The previous era was defined by FAANG—Facebook's parent, Meta; Amazon; Apple; Netflix; and Google's owner, Alphabet—until that group fizzled in 2023. If these companies' stocks continue heading in wildly different directions, that might leave the door open for a newly named group of hot stocks—and the Magnificent Seven could go the way of FAANG or the Nifty Fifty. Some investors are already wondering about what moniker will be next. Write to Roshan Fernandez at

How to Limit Galaxy AI to On-Device Processing—or Turn It Off Altogether

You don't have to accept the AI that Samsung offers you. Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge smartphones are displayed during a media preview in New York, US, on Friday, May 9, 2025. Photograph:All products featured on WIRED are independently selected by our editors. However, we may receive compensation from retailers and/or from purchases of products through these links. Artificial intelligence is now more pervasive than ever in the apps and gadgets we use day to day, and that of course extends to smartphones: Google Gemini on Pixels and other Android handsets, Apple Intelligence (currently still rolling out) on iPhones, and Galaxy AI on Samsung smartphones. These tools can help you refine text, generate images, and summarize documents, among other tricks, and you don't have to go far through your apps to find an AI feature ready and willing to help you with something. With Samsung Galaxy AI, you have the option to disable the AI features you don't want to use, or switch off artificial intelligence altogether. If you're on one of the latest Galaxy S25 phones (with the fastest, AI-capable chips), you also get the option to keep most of the AI enabled but process it on your device, without transferring anything to the cloud. How Samsung Galaxy AI Works Galaxy AI is spread right through the latest One UI 6 and One UI 7 software updates from Samsung. More recent additions include the Now Brief screen that aims to bring you the information you need the most at the right time, and the Audio Eraser tool for quickly removing background noise from videos. There are generative AI editing tools for your photos, and generative AI writing options for your emails and messages. If you're not happy with the way a block of text reads or the way a picture is looking, you can deploy some Galaxy AI magic and make changes with a few well-chosen prompts. Galaxy AI is only ever a few taps away. Photograph: David Nield This all requires some pretty deep access to your apps and to your data, which is one reason to carefully consider whether or not you want to use these tools. For example, Galaxy AI has to be able to read your email in order to rewrite it, and some of the data you're asking the AI to work with may be traveling to and from Samsung's servers for processing. Samsung says that all Galaxy AI data is securely encrypted and protected from prying eyes, though of course no security protection can ever be guaranteed to be fully 100 percent effective all of the time. You can find the full Samsung privacy policy online. How to Turn Galaxy AI Features On or Off Perhaps you're not sure about allowing Galaxy AI access to everything you're writing and editing, or maybe you just find the AI features a little too pushy. On Galaxy smartphones, you've got the option to turn off some or all of these features. To see the AI features that are currently active, open up Settings, then choose Galaxy AI. You get a full list of what the AI can do on Samsung phones, and it might be more comprehensive than you realized: everything from transcribing voice recordings to giving you personalized insights into your fitness data. You can access all the Galaxy AI features from the same menu. Photograph: David Nield Tap on any of these Galaxy AI features to make changes. The exact options you see will depend on the feature, and some of these features come with sub-features, but they all come with toggle switches for turning the tools on or off. You also get descriptions for how your data is managed. Select Photo assist, for example, and there are three tools listed: Generative edit (using AI to remove and move objects in images), Sketch to image (for turning basic outlines into photos), and Portrait studio (for turning photos of people into cartoons and sketches). Use the toggle switch at the top to turn all these features on or off. How to Enable On-Device Processing Open Galaxy AI from Settings on a Samsung Galaxy S25 phone, and you'll see a Process data only on device toggle switch at the bottom of the AI feature list. These phones have Snapdragon 8 Elite chipsets inside them, with powerful enough AI processing capabilities to take care of some jobs without transferring data to and from the cloud. That's some jobs, not all jobs; you'll see that some of the features are no longer available when you flick the toggle switch for on-device processing. Samsung doesn't provide a definitive list of which features can work without the cloud, but automatic summaries and generative AI editing are among those mentioned as needing internet access. On-device processing is more private, but limits some features. Photograph: David Nield There are also a few Process data only on device toggle switches available inside the Galaxy AI feature menus—there's one for Writing assist, for example. You can still use the feature without accessing the cloud, but the number of languages available to you for translations is reduced, because you're relying on local files. Overall, there's a good amount of control here, letting you strike your preferred balance between Galaxy AI features, software bloat, and data privacy. No doubt there are more Galaxy AI features to come further down the line, so be sure to check this list regularly to see what you have access to on your device.
