Wifi access super and simply fast

The M2 offers an 18 per cent faster CPU, a 35 per cent more powerful GPU and a 40 per cent faster Neural Engine compared to the M1. It also has a higher memory bandwidth of up to 24 GB of shared memory and a better media engine with video decoder for 8K HD.

For some apps, it is faster than its predecessor... Generally better.

mokus61 has written a good explanation 😊

Let's put it this way! I previously had an iPad Pro 2 generation which is part of the pro line and therefore more expensive, and I don't think there was an M chip in it yet, but now with the new iPad Air I have the M2 chip in it and it's like I have a new iPad Pro whether it's faster I don't know but it was about half the price 🤪👍🏻
