I am looking at these two, trying to find a deal on the Pro 2022 that makes it close to the price of the 13" 2024 Air. Right now the “deals” are still in the $999 range for it, as opposed to $800 for the Air. Which sucks - seems like the 2022 is still better, but $200 is $200. I have a pro 10.5" now, but the lure of bigger has finally won out, years later. Trying to see if I’m missing anything - on paper the 2022 is still better, even if older.

Advantages of the Pro 2022:

  • FaceID, not TouchID
  • Promotion display (120hz vs the Air’s 60hz)
  • can run external display

Advantages of the Air 2024:

  • Cheaper
  • Newer - supported longer?
  • ? Anything else?

    Also the iPad Pro has 4 speakers and the air has 2, if you care about internal speakers the pro is much better
