Apple iPad dimensions – the complete list
Here is a quick and complete table of iPad dimensions, grouped by model, including current and discontinued generations. If you are looking for a quick and handy way to check out the dimension of your current iPad and compare it with other models, you have reached the right place. In the tables below, you will find iPad dimensions in both inches and millimeters, accompanied by information about screen size, release year, and generation number. For each iPad series, we have also prepared a handy image that visually presents the dimensions of the latest-generation model.
The only thing to do is provide the case producer with exact dimensions of your specific model. The following table includes dimensions of the basic iPad model, with screen sizes between 9.7 and 10.9 inches.
Here is the list of dimensions of all generations of the smallest Apple tablet – iPad mini – including the latest model released in September 2021.
iPad 2021 Screen Sizes
The 2021 iPhone release included two updated iPad models. It still supports only the 1st generation Apple Pencil so it also keeps the lightning connector.
The physical dimensions of the device and the screen resolution are unchanged.
The status bar is 20 points high which gives the following safe area insets: Safe Area Insets (portrait): top: 20, bottom: 0, left: 0, right: 0 Safe Area Insets (landscape): top: 20, bottom: 0, left: 0, right: 0 The 2nd generation Apple Pencil is now supported which also means the connector has changed from lightning to USB-C. The screen resolution is slightly narrower and taller than the previous 1536 x 2048 of the 5th generation device. The status bar is 24 points high which gives the following safe area insets: Safe Area Insets (portrait): top: 24, bottom: 20, left: 0, right: 0 Safe Area Insets (landscape): top: 24, bottom: 20, left: 0, right: 0 I count 22 iPad models, with 8 different screen sizes, that support a minimum of iOS 13.
Those screenshots are both 2048 x 2732 pixels in portrait and are scaled down for smaller device sizes.
iPad Screen Size, Versions, Resolution & Generation
So today, we are going to take a look at all available iPad variants and compare them on the basis of their specifications, most importantly the screen size. Before we start with the various models Apple has to offer for an iPad, let us take a look at a few different versions so that you can shortlist your preferred options right now.
In a lot of iPad mini models, you will find 3 GB of RAM, a powerful A-series proces
The iPad Mini is definitely the right choice for those who are looking for a handheld tablet that offers a similar form factor as a smartphone.
The most common use for an iPad Mini is web browsing, gaming, and watching up with work while you are traveling. A lot of buyers also get an iPad Mini just for its good display quality and use it as a handheld digital book reader.
These devices also offer similar functionality as an iPad Mini, granting you a portable secondary screen for mobile usage. It is also possible to pair a set of wireless keyboards and a mouse with an iPad Air to bring more functionality to the device.
The iPad Pro version, as the name suggests, is a series of iPads that are designed to replace a standard laptop by offering an efficient working station that takes less than half the space of a laptop and offers similarly powerful configurations, if not better. But, since most users tend to choose the right iPad for their application based on the screen size, we have decided to prepare a basic comparison table of all available options based on the display size and what type of display these iPads offer. Unlike most other brands, Apple focuses on the user’s experience rather than pushing technical specifications like display resolution on the product’s front page. While a lot of Apple consumers consider this as a sigh of relief, most would want to know the exact display resolution before buying an iPad.
As you have already observed so far, the most significant difference between various iPad models is on the basis of display size and resolution. However, you should also base your choice on the hardware specifications and the overall capabilities of the iPad you are picking up instead of just looking at the display size. We hope that you can now easily differentiate between all of the iPad models released by Apple so far and make a choice based on their merits and limitations. For that, we have included a comprehensive list of all iPad models along with their key specifications and display size.

Apple iPad Air (2022) review: it’s the nice one
It’s got a modern design, more performance than most people will know what to do with in a tablet, and an excellent screen that works equally well in portrait or landscape orientation. It’s not the iPad I’d recommend wholly replacing a laptop with, though it can work for certain laptop-like tasks when paired with an optional keyboard case. The size and weight are both comfortable for tablet tasks, including sitting on the couch and reading articles or books or taking notes with the Apple Pencil, as I like to do.
The Air’s 10.9-inch screen is imperceptibly smaller than the 11-inch Pro’s display, but it’s still large enough for a great movie watching experience. What you don’t get on the Air is the Pro’s ProMotion variable refresh rate display, nor do you get the 12.9-inch model’s brighter Mini LED screen. But the two speakers it has are on opposite sides of the tablet (left and right in landscape, top and bottom in portrait) and are able to provide a stereo experience that is clear, loud, and great for anything I wanted to listen to on it.
Like the prior model and the latest iPad Mini, the new Air doesn’t have the Pro’s Face ID facial recognition system for logins and authentication, instead using a fingerprint scanner built into the sleep / wake button. Sadly, Apple also didn’t add back a 3.5mm headphone jack — the only iPad in the lineup with that port at this point is the base model.
The base model Air also still comes with 64GB of storage, which is starting to feel a bit stingy at its $600 price point. Though the rear camera remains the same single 12-megapixel unit as before (and it’s perfectly fine for scanning documents or taking quick snaps), the front camera has been upgraded to a 12-megapixel ultrawide unit with support for Apple’s self-centering Center Stage feature that is designed to keep you in frame during video calls. In my testing, Center Stage is hit or miss — when I have the iPad Air on my desk in a keyboard case, it would zoom in uncomfortably close to my face and tilt my camera at an angle. Center Stage is a neat trick, but it doesn’t make up for the placement of the front-facing camera on the side of the screen when you’re using the tablet in landscape mode, an ongoing annoyance across the iPad line.
The M1 is Apple’s desktop-level ARM processor and offers an industry-leading blend of performance and battery efficiency when running macOS on laptops and desktops, which makes finding it in a $600 iPad pretty impressive. If you’re using the iPad for things like browsing the web, reading books, watching movies or TV shows, or even light productivity, you won’t likely notice the extra performance headroom the M1 chip provides.
It was able to maintain smooth gameplay even after extended play time, though the battery took a beating, and the back of the tablet was very warm to the touch.
In fact, the iPad Pro with the A12Z processor was able to play the game nearly as well, enough for me to say that upgrading from that two-year-old tablet to the new Air isn’t worth it. The iPad Mini was slightly held back by its fewer GPU cores, and it wasn’t able to push the graphics as hard as the other models. Ultimately, the main advantage of the M1’s headroom is that the Air will be fast and capable for many years and will likely be supported by Apple for a long time.
The cellular upgrade is still a steep $150 though, which makes a fully loaded Air with 256GB of storage and 5G a cool $899 before you add any accessories. There are many excellent apps, it’s easy to navigate with a finger, it’s smooth and fast, and it integrates extremely well with the rest of Apple’s ecosystem.
This year’s version of the Air is compatible with all of the same accessories as the last model, including Apple’s Magic Keyboard. You give up the ProMotion display, Face ID, a couple of speakers, an extra rear camera with LIDAR, and the option for mmWave 5G.
Sure, I’d rather have Face ID, and the Mini LED screen of the big iPad Pro would be great, but the absence of those things doesn’t diminish the Air’s overall experience. But we’re going to start counting exactly how many times you have to hit “agree” to use devices when we review them since these are agreements most people don’t read and definitely can’t negotiate.
