This was the “Air” week for Apple as it declared new iPads and macbooks with upgraded chipsets. Note that the new Apple devices are on pre-order and will be available from March 12 (Wednesday). We look at Samsung Galaxy exemption, as well as Amazon’s advanced new AI enterprise.
First, the Vanilla iPad – 2025 model was upgraded to the Apple A16 chip, which makes it the only new iPad only without Apple Intelligence Support (2024 Mini uses A17 Pro chipset).
At least Apple collided with base storage to 128GB, which is lustable (64GB was difficult and upgrading took you to 256GB model). It has been three years since the Vanilla iPad is upgraded and when we appreciate additional performance and storage, we would have some additional – AI, 120Hz display, anything appreciated.
