What is the difference between the Older iPad Air and the new iPad Air besides size differences?

They are both going to be pretty equally for the things that you do. The new one is going to look different and will be able to do things faster. It is also going to give you a longer future time for updates as the hardware in it is newer and more capable in the future. You should still get plenty of time with the iPad Air 3. It's really going to come down to price at this point, but the new models always have updated hardware.
