Seven Air generations, two connectors, four Pencil tiers. Quick overview:
Six Air case archetypes at RPD:
For students we recommend Smart Folio plus paper-feel film — quiet Pencil writing haptic during lectures. Creative pros combine hardcase with Pencil holder and Magic Keyboard — Procreate and the Affinity stack always at hand. Home office picks Smart Folio plus Magic Keyboard for video calls. Travellers reach for sleeve and crossbody adapter. Field staff need the outdoor bumper. Sustainable options: cases from recycled felt, recycled TPU and FSC-cardboard sleeves are available.
Pencil compatibility on the Air follows generation logic:

Air 1-3 charge via Lightning, Air 4 and newer via USB-C (Air 4-5 up to approx. 20 W, Air 6 M2 up to 30 W, Air 7 M3 up to 35 W). The iPad Air does NOT support MagSafe — the magnet ring on the iPhone back is iPhone-only. Outdoor cases with drop protection up to 2 m, premium up to 5 m. A display repair on the iPad Air typically runs CHF 200–400, a case from CHF 9 amortises on the first drop and is 30–50% cheaper than a refurbished replacement.
Three film types: clear (tempered standard) for maximum protection, paper-feel film for Pencil writing haptic (matte, slightly textured — ideal for Procreate artists), privacy film for commuters. Hydrogel films for curved glass edges.
