  • Apple has a new iPad Air 4 ad out.
  • Titled Boiiing, the ad features colorful iPad Airs and some accessories.
  • The new iPad Air 4 is on sale now.

Apple today released the new iPad Air 4 alongside iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro. Seemingly keen to remind everyone that it exists, the company has also now shared a new YouTube video showing off the new tablet and its whimsical colors.

The ad, titled Boiiing, shows multiple iPads and in different colors as a slinky bounces across them. It's typical Apple ad, playful without actually telling you anything about the device it's advertising. But it works, so who am I to tell Apple it's doing ads wrong?

Check it out and see for yourself.

Introducing iPad Air. Featuring an all-screen design and 10.9" Liquid Retina display. The lightning fast A14 Bionic chip, which makes iPad Air faster than most PC laptops.
