Here’s how to order the new 9.7-inch iPad Pro online

If you really like the looks of Apple’s new 9,7-inch iPad Pro, you’re probably really itching to get your paws on one. Although we’ve heard that good things come to those who wait, we think the merits of impatience are seriously undervalued. Therefore, we understand your need to be one of the first to own the newest addition to the iPad family. For those of you looking to order the new iPad Pro online, here is a full list of all the retailers and carriers who are offering the new tablet.

The 9.7-inch iPad Pro is available in stores as of Thursday, March 31, so you can try your chances there. Of course, you can order online instead, but unless you were one of the first to place your pre-order once the clock struck 12:01 a.m. PDT on March 24, you’ll almost definitely be receiving your new iPad in the mail after it’s been released in stores.

That said, ordering online will ensure you get the exact model you want and allow you to bypass the lines. Plus, you can order your new iPad while wearing pajamas — aka “thinking pants” — and licking Cheetos remnants off your fingertips. What do you have to lose?

Apple introduces new iPad Air with M3 silicon and unchanged price
M3 iPad Air 2025

Apple has just launched a refreshed version of the iPad Air, armed with the M3 silicon. The design language remains unchanged, and there are 11-inch and 13-inch sizes up for grabs, once again. There is, however, a new Magic Keyboard designed especially for the new iPad Air 2025.

The big draw, of course, is the upgraded M3 processor, which Apple claims is twice as fast as the older iPad Air model with an M1 chip. The M3 silicon comes with an 8-core CPU and a 9-core GPU.

This new version is expected to arrive less than a year after the release of the M2 iPad Air (2024). The new tablet has long been anticipated, but little is known besides its likely chipset.

The M4 chip, which is also expected to appear on a new MacBook Air, which could also launch this week, was first introduced on the iPad Pro (2024). Since then, the M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max chips have appeared on last year’s MacBook Pro.

Less than a year has passed since the release of the current iPad Air. However, a new one could launch very soon. As Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman notes, the inventory for the popular tablet is dwindling, suggesting that a new model is set to launch.

The 2024 iPad Air was launched in May 2024, introducing a new 13-inch model alongside the traditional 11-inch model. Both versions feature Liquid Retina displays that offer vibrant colors and sharp details and are powered by the M2 chip, which provides improved performance compared to the previous generation. Beyond this, there were a few changes made between this and the previous model, which arrived in 2022.
