Buying advice for Algeria

Both Apple iPad Air (2022) and Apple iPad Pro 11 (2022) are sold in Algeria, but they fit different priorities.

Apple iPad Air (2022) is 19% cheaper at 136,560 DZD versus 167,760 DZD for the Apple iPad Pro 11 (2022), leaving room for accessories or a longer screen-protection plan.

Apple iPad Air (2022) packs a 7600 mAh battery, which translates to longer screen-on time when you are away from a charger.

Above 100,000 DZD you are paying for the chipset, camera tuning, and long-term software support, so weigh those against price.
