It's powered by the A16 chip, a step up from the A14 in the previous model, and starts with 128GB of storage at no extra cost, doubling the base storage of its predecessor. The design remains familiar, available in silver, blue, yellow, and pink. While it's improved in terms of performance, it does not include Apple Intelligence. For users focused on gaming, browsing, watching videos, social media, and emails, the 11th-gen iPad offers robust performance that will serve you well for years to come.

It offers superior performance compared to the baseline iPad but falls short of the iPad Pro's capabilities. Available in 11-inch and 13-inch variants, it's the ideal choice for those needing more power than the entry-level model provides. Notably, it supports Apple Intelligence and is compatible with a new Magic Keyboard featuring function keys and a trackpad, available at Apple.
