Apple iPad Air 13-inch (M2)
Why we picked this
Premium Pick: The large 13-inch display and powerful M2 chip provide the most comfortable viewing experience and ample performance reserves. Compared with the two Xiaomi models, it stands out with iPadOS and a particularly large screen, but it is heavier and uses only 128 GB of base storage.
