display

13-inch, 600 nits LCD screenThe 600-nit brightness and anti-glare coating let you use it comfortably indoors and in dim outdoor settings, but direct sunlight will still wash out the image.

performance

Apple M3, 8GB RAMThe M3 and 9-core GPU handle everyday tasks, photo editing, and moderate games smoothly, but demanding 3D gaming or professional video work will show the limits of 8GB RAM.

battery

9705 mAh, roughly 12 to 14 hours screen timeOn typical mixed use (web, email, reading, light video), expect a full day; heavy video playback or gaming will drop that to around 10 to 11 hours.

storage

128GB to 1TB, UFS-class speedBase model leaves little room for apps and media (OS takes ~20GB), so 256GB or higher is safer for daily use; no expandable slot means your choice at purchase is final.

connectivity

Wi-Fi 6e, 5G optional, USB-CWi-Fi 6e gives you fast home internet speeds; the cellular model adds 5G for data on the move, though 5G availability varies by region.

camera

12MP main, 12MP selfie ultrawideThe main camera handles everyday photos and 4K video; the 122-degree selfie lens covers group video calls and wide background shots, not telephoto range.

durability

6.1mm aluminum, glass front, Mohs 4 scratch resistanceLight and thin for a 13-inch tablet, with glass and aluminum that resist minor scratches and knocks, but Mohs 4 (roughly soda-lime) scratches easier than Gorilla Glass.
