iPad 2020
LOOKS FAMILIAR While the latest iPad doesn’t break new ground externally, there’s plenty more going on underneath the hood

Apple’s confidence when it comes to its own product design sits somewhere between genius and delusional. Put simply, its latest iPad could easily be mistaken for the original iPad Air (2013).
While it’s powered by a nippy new Apple A12 Bionic chip, everything else about the iPad 2020’s hardware is identical to the 2019 model. It has the same dimensions, same weight, same Apple Pencil support, same screen size and resolution, same storage capacity options and the same Lightning connector. A testament to Apple’s software – we’ll say this from the offset – this is still a very good tablet (one of the best drawing tablets for kids, in fact) – but out of the gate there’s very little new here.
