The new model features a slightly larger display and completely removes the home button from the device just like the [[Topic:iPad Air (5th Generation)|5th generation iPad Air|new_window=true]]. The device also features the A14 Bionic chip, a Liquid Retina display, and a 12 MP Landscape Ultra Wide front camera. The iPad 10 keeps compatibility with the 1st generation Apple Pencil, provided you have a USB-C adapter and the Magic Keyboard Folio.

The iPad 10 is available in 4 colors, Silver, Pink, Blue, and Yellow, and is available with either 64 GB or 256 GB of internal storage. Naturally, there are two connectivity options: a Wi-Fi-only model and a Wi-Fi with Cellular.
