iPad Air (2024) colors: what to expect

We've been hearing some rumors in the past few months about new iPads. This year, we didn't have a March event for new iPads to get unveiled. Instead, we're yet to see a press release or any type of official information from Apple about new iPads.
Despite not knowing when we're going to see them, we do hear about new iPad Air models. Reportedly, a new iPad Air (2024) will be one of the devices to be unveiled soon. On top of that, we might be getting a bigger version as well (rumors say we'll have a 10.9-inch model and a new 12.9-inch option)!
iPad Air colors: expectations
The iPad Air 2022 came in four youthful-looking colors. In line with the Air's marketing strategy of being an easy-going and lightweight iPad, we expect a similar light color palette this year as well.
iPad Air 2024 in Starlight (expectation)

As usual, in line with Apple's elegant and simplistic design, the Starlight option features a frame painted in a similar hue. The camera lens is small and doesn't stand out much.
iPad Air 2024 in Blue (expectation)

Some form of a blue shade has also been present in Apple devices for quite some time. So, it's possible blue will be an option for this iteration of the iPad Air as well. You can probably expect a light and subdued blue color.
But of course, Apple never makes a boring blue, and it usually doesn't go for the exact same shade we've already seen. So you can expect a different shade of blue than the one illustrated above. As we already mentioned above, there's a possibility of more vibrant colors (like the entry-level iPad) or more muted and serious colors like the new iPhones.
iPad Air 2024 in Pink or Purple (expectation)
It's also quite possible that Apple will have the iPad Air 2024 in a pink or purple hue (or probably both, just like its predecessor). Pinks and purples on an iPad bring a fresh and spring-inspired look to your device. These two colors are ideal if you want a more gentle-looking iPad. Also, you can safely expect Apple premium feel of the shade, so it won't be your Barbie-pink or something too in-your-face.
iPad Air 2024 in Space Gray (expectation)

One thing we're almost certain of is the Space Gray option. It's a pretty standard and classical option for Apple gear. The color is a mid-tone gray color that can look light or dark depending on the lighting situation you're in.
The space gray color option is ideal for you if you want your iPad Air to look more professional, or if you're one of the people who doesn't really care too much about color and you'll slap a case on it anyway.

iPad Air 2024 colors: what about new color options
Of course, it's always possible that Apple will surprise us, and the Cupertino giant can decide to launch the new iPad Air in completely new colors that we haven't talked about here. So far, leakers are silent on this. But that's why product announcements are highly-anticipated events: because of the unknowns.
