IPad Air (4th generation)

The 4th-generation iPad Air was announced by Apple at a special event on September 15, 2020 and shipped on the following October 23rd with a list price starting at 599.

Features
The 4th-generation iPad Air resembles a 2018 iPad Pro with a 10.9" Liquid Retina display, an A14 Bionic processor, and a small Touch ID sensor on the side. However, it does not support Face ID nor Portrait Mode. It is the first iPad Air model to use the USB-C port, while previous models used the traditional Lightning connector.

The 4th-generation Air supports the Apple Pencil 2 and is compatible with the Magic Keyboard and Smart Keyboard Folio for the 11" iPad Pro. Available finishes include Silver, Space Gray, Rose Gold, Green, and Sky Blue.
