I wonder what’s next for apple. Maybe a 15 inch iPad?

Thanks for taking the time to comment. That's a good question. I am going to have a first impressions video and also a subsequent review coming down the pipeline soon (apologies for the delay, been a little busy) and I can tell you from my own personal experience as well as my wife's who I got this mainly for her to use that the difference between this and the 11" model of either this current (6th) generation and previous 11" iPad Air models is nothing short of significant in terms of the form factor. It's bene a pleasant surprise that although it isn't lighter than the current version of the iPad Pro (which personally, has me still confused since originally I thought Apple's "Air" products whether it be the iPad or MacBook were supposed to be the lightest versions in terms of their weight vs. their other concurrent counterparts, go figure) it still is light enough to comfortable hold whether you're sitting upwards in a chair, laying or propped up against couch or bed, and/or standing or leaning against a wall(depending on where and how you'll be using it). Specifically regarding the iPad, I could certainly see Apple including in a future refresh of this product lineup a third, 15" option for the iPad Air and the iPad Pro. It would require them to also create another Magic Keyboard model specifically to be compatible as an accessory with that new size option. Maybe... But now that I am thinking about it as I type this out, since many people have been seeking a touch screen version of the MacBook whether it be an Air or Pro -maybe they'll sooner release the latter prior to the former because at least from my vantage point, this new 13" iPad Air is decently-sized and provides plenty of space in its own right especially compared one-to-one with the 11" model. I guess we'll have to wait and see since this is all conjecture, but it doesn't hurt to speculate considering how popular content is on various potential tech product rumors, especially Apple's. I am old enough to still remember and have on this channel videos from back when people were trying to guess what the iPad would be officially named, when some thought it would be branded as the "iSlate." Your guess is as good as mine and thanks again for helping me brainstorm a bit, ha ha.

I traded my 2020 MacBook Pro (I’m sure a lot would have kept it) and my 9th gen iPad to just use one device which would be the iPad Air 13 model. I rarely used my Mac so hopefully I made the right decision

Apologies for the delayed response -thank you btw for taking the time to comment and I appreciate you providing your particular insight when it comes to this awesome new product since I have not as of yet (but will in the very near-future, I promise!) been able to release my first impressions video on the iPad Air (it's finished in terms of being filmed, but still needs to be edited and uploaded). I'm also am about to record and begin working on my comprehensive review later this very week, the silver-lining here is at least I have had enough time to use the device (in contrast to some who literally posted a review the same day they got the device in the mail, which is all well and good for getting clicks but I personally think it takes a relatively decent period of time and thought to provide a real, meaningful review and not just more content just for the sake of attracting eyeballs, at least if it is at the expense of cutting-corners or not diving deep into the various pros as well as cons of the product, especially when it comes to a major purchase like this) and will be providing a truly thoughtful review (at least to the best of my capacity). As someone who also has in the past sold various game consoles and personal computers that I had overtime ceased using as daily drivers (I built a custom gaming PC way back in 2014 and I'd be lying if I didn't say that I sometimes regret selling it) , but in spite of the occasional seller's remorse (I think that's what it is, in lack of a better way of describing it), it's better to prioritize one main daily driver and at least for me in my experience doing so has genuinely helped me maximize my productivity and prevented me from having even more unnecessary, seldom used gear that just takes up space and collects dust. Different strokes for different blokes, I suppose. But I digress --I'd love to hear (that is provided when and if you have the time sometime in the future) what your take is so far using it as your go-to device of choice when it comes to getting all of the things you need to done. Btw, on a brief side note: I'd recommend if you do end up sticking with it (and want to maximize your productivity and user-experience with it for the long-haul) getting the new Apple Pencil Pro and the compatible Magic Keyboard as well as a suitable case and screen protector (we're going to be getting all of these and I will have respective videos out covering each accessory sometime very soon, as well). Much appreciated for providing your previous feedback, nonetheless, and best of luck with your new iPad Air. I've been digging it so far and am looking forward to releasing more content as mentioned sometime in the near-future!
