Having said that, buying the iPad Air M1 for Rs 43,998 is a terrific value if you want a powerful tablet with an excellent multimedia consumption experience. It has the best-in-class processor, the Apple M1, which is also found in the MacBook Air M1, and it supports some of the greatest third-party applications, like Final Cut Pro. There are, however, a handful of cautions to consider.

To begin, this pricing is for the device's 64GB variant. If you want to use the iPad Air M1 for creative projects, you should consider investing a little extra and getting the 256GB model.  Second, an Android tablet could also be an excellent choice and might be more cost-effective if all you need is a gadget for media consumption.

Overall, this pricing is a nice value, but if you want to use it for creative activities like video editing or working on huge projects in Procreate, we advise getting the higher-capacity model since 64GB might not be enough. The iPad Air M1 with 256GB storage costs between Rs 65,000 and 70,000, but there is also another thing to take into account. For that amount, you can spend a little more and then have a look at the iPad Pro, which not only has the M2 chipset but also comes with FaceID and a 120Hz ProMotion display.
