Apple's latest chips, you know, for Wi-Fi and stuff.

So you get Wi-Fi 7.

You get Bluetooth 6.

That's cool.

It's the same size as the iPad Air M3, but a little bit heavier.

And storage is no change.

You can go from 128 up to a terabyte.

Same colors.

Environmental impact statements.

I diffed them for this particular thing because, like, they say the same stuff all the time.

But I'm like, well, what new stuff are you doing with the environment?

Have there been any regressions?

So just like the iPad Air M3 is 30% recycled content, 100% recycled aluminum in the enclosure and recycled cobalt in the battery.

And the new thing that they've been touting for all their products, and you'll hear it for each one, is manufactured with X percent renewable energy.

And the iPad Air M4 is 40% renewable energy.

Which is nice, I guess.

I mean, in the past they would say, we try to use renewable energy, but now they're putting a number on it so it shows that they're tracking it.

So good job, Apple.

Keep ratcheting that stuff up.

And the pricing is unchanged and not particularly interesting.
