Apple finally debuted the long-awaited iPad Air 6 and iPad Pro (2024) at its May 7 Apple event, meaning there’s plenty of new iPad-related price information to digest.
The iPad Air 6 – otherwise known as the iPad Air (2024) – is available in two sizes and four storage configurations, where it’s predecessor, the iPad Air (2022), was only available in one size and two storage configurations. The iPad Pro (2024), on the other hand, is available in the same number of sizes (2) but fewer storage configurations (16) than its predecessor, the iPad Pro (2022).
Both the iPad Air (2024) and iPad Pro (2024) are also available in Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi + Cellular configurations, regardless of which storage capacity you choose, which means there’s now a grand total of 56 new iPad prices (or 168 new prices across the UK, US and Australia) to consider. In this guide, we’ve outlined almost every price, but to help you make sense of the figures, we’ve broken down the key takeaways from each comparison at the end of each model section.

And here’s how those prices compare to the iPad Air (2022):

| Configuration | US price | UK price | AU price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 64GB (11-inch), Wi-Fi | $599 | £569 | $929 |
| 64GB (11-inch), Wi-Fi + Cellular | $749 | £719 | $1,159 |
| 256GB (11-inch), Wi-Fi | $749 | £719 | $1,159 |
| 256GB (11-inch), Wi-Fi + Cellular | $899 | £869 | $1,389 |
Key points:
- For starters, where there were only four different configurations of the iPad Air (2022), there are now 16 different configurations of iPad Air (2024) to choose from, owing to the additional size and storage options available on the latter.
- The new tablet’s starting price is the same as before in the US, £30 more expensive in the UK and AU$90 more expensive in Australia, but you do get double the base storage for that price (128GB vs 64GB).
- For like-for-like, 11-inch 256GB Wi-Fi models, the iPad Air (2024) is $50 / £20 / AU$20 more expensive than the iPad Air (2022), while the new 256GB Wi-Fi + Cellular model has also received a $50 / £20 / AU$40 price hike. Naturally, you’ll pay more for every model of the new 13-inch size.
- That said, the iPad Air (2024) offers a much faster M2 chipset than its predecessor – Apple says the new model is 50% faster than the M1-equipped model – which arguably justifies the price increase.

Key points:
- Disclaimer: Since Apple has now discontinued the iPad Pro (2022), it’s a little tricky to track down the exact prices for every storage configuration. We’ve been able to recover every price for every storage variant of the 13-inch iPad Pro (2022), as well as the regional starting prices for the 11-inch model, but additional prices for the 11-inch model are proving particularly difficult to find, hence the N/A entries in the above table. We’ll update this page once we’ve been able to confirm the figures.
- We can, however, see that the starting price of the iPad Pro (2024) is $200 / £200 / AU$300 more expensive than the starting price of the iPad Pro (2022), though you do get double the storage (256GB) with the newer model, since Apple has dropped the 128GB option with both sizes of the iPad Pro (2024).
- For like-for-like, 13-inch 256GB Wi-Fi models, the iPad Pro (2024) costs $100 more than the iPad Pro (2022) in the US and AU$120 more in Australia, but £70 less in the UK. For the same Wi-Fi + Cellular model, the iPad Pro (2024) costs $100 more in the US and AU$220 more in Australia, but £70 less in the UK.
- For like-for-like, 13-inch 1TB Wi-Fi models, the iPad Pro (2024) costs $100 more than the iPad Pro (2022) in the US and AU$120 more in Australia, but £150 less in the UK. For the same Wi-Fi + Cellular model, the iPad Pro (2024) costs $100 more in the US and AU$200 more in Australia, but £150 less in the UK.
- On the whole, then, the iPad Pro (2024) is more expensive than the iPad Pro (2022) in the US and Australia, but slightly cheaper in the US. It’s worth noting that the new model offers a brighter OLED display and a faster M4 chipset than its predecessor.
