Your color options are Space Grey, Starlight, Pink, Purple and Blue.

That’s not even the most exciting part.

The new iPad Air comes with a new trick.

It now supports Centre Stage.

It’s an Apple feature borrowed from the iPad Pro.

When you FaceTime, the camera will follow you (and your friends or family) around as you move.

It means you stay in focus and central to the camera.

Apple has also upgraded the iPad Air with 5G.

That means you’ll be able to get super-fast 5G internet – potentially.

You’ll also need to pay for the cellular iPad Air model, and get a 5G SIM contract.

And you’ll need to make sure you’re living in an area with 5G network coverage.

But it’s great news, and will definitely tempt some tech fans.

New iPad Air price

The price starts at $599 for the 64GB model without cellular capabilities.

There are 64GB and 256GB configurations, available to pre-order from Friday.

The new iPad Air will be available from March 18.
