iPad Air iPad Air M2 not really 11" or 13"?

[sherwinzadeh]

The new M2 Air seems to have increased in size from 10.9" to 11" and the new 13" is also larger than the old iPad Pro's 12.9" screen size.

However, if you look at the spec sheets (https://www.apple.com/ipad-air/specs/)
The "11-inch" is 2360-by-1640-pixel resolution at 264 ppi
The "13-inch" is 2732-by-2048-pixel resolution at 264 ppi

Compared to the M4 iPad Pro (https://www.apple.com/ipad-pro/specs/)
The "11-inch" is 2420-by-1668-pixel resolution at 264 ppi
The "13-inch" is 2752-by-2064-pixel resolution at 264 ppi

Since they're all 264 ppi and only the Pro has a higher pixel resolution, it would appear that the Airs are really still 10.9" and 12.9" whereas the Pros really have 11" and 13" screen sizes.

No?

What are you talking about? They have 28x16 pixels more! Oh no, I guess Apple lied to you. Ah well, watch ya gonna do. Many will fall for it.

Apple changed to rounded numbers, like for the MacBooks.

Look at the fine print, the M2 Air is 10.9” (as before) and 12.9” (old Pro size):

The M4 Pro is 11.1” and 13.0” (both new sizes):

The old Pro 11.0” size doesn’t exist anymore.
