Similar to its predecessor, the 11th-generation iPad retains the same dimensions, Touch ID sensor and design. Improvements include the faster A16 chip, a slight improvement to the camera and Bluetooth 5.3.[3] Like the 10th-generation iPad, this iPad supports the Apple Pencil (USB-C) and Apple Pencil (1st generation), as well as supporting Apple's Magic Keyboard Folio keyboard cover accessory.[4][5]
Specifications
Like its predecessor, the Touch ID sensor is located in the power button and shares the same colors of silver, blue, pink, and yellow,[6] except for the removal of the iPad branding in the lower midsection.[citation needed]
Like the tenth generation iPad, it has an 11-inch (280 mm) 2360x1640 unlaminated Liquid Retina display. The 11th generation iPad uses the A16 SoC, which is also used in the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 15.[3]
The chip has a 5-core CPU, a 4-core GPU, and a 16-core Neural Engine.[7] Because of the chip and RAM limitations, the iPad does not support Apple Intelligence. Different from the iPad 10th-generation, this iPad uses 6 GB RAM, the same as the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 15 series.[8]
The 11th generation iPad has Bluetooth 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) wireless capabilities, as well as sub-6 GHz 5G on cellular models. Connectivity is limited to USB 2.0 transfer speeds. The 11th generation iPad, like its predecessor, does not include a 3.5 mm headphone jack, requiring wireless headphones or a USB-C adapter, both sold separately.[9]
The cellular version does not have a physical SIM-card slot and only supports eSIM, whereas the tenth generation iPad also had nano-SIM slot.
