For the first time in more than two years, there’s a new base-model iPad on the market. Apple just announced the 11th-generation iPad with a press release, as it has done with a number of recent devices.

Apple has upgraded its iPad lineup -- the Air and entry-level models, at least. The new iPad Air now has an M3 chip compared to the M2 it had last year. It also gets a Magic Keyboard upgrade with added rows of function buttons.

In an announcement whose timing caught many on the hop, Apple has now refreshed every iPad in the last 12 months.
