Best iPad Air 5 cases to buy in 2023

Apple’s iPad Air family received its latest refresh last year. The iPad Air 5 aka iPad Air (2022) arrived as the fifth generation tablet in the lineup. It has the same design as the 2020 variant but with under-the-hood improvements and new color options.

The iPad Air 5 comes with the new and more powerful Apple M1 chipset, a better front camera with Center Stage, 5G connectivity, and a faster USB-C port among other changes. All these features mean it is priced higher and you better invest in a sturdy case to keep it safe from accidental falls and damage.
