This product does not support wireless charging for the Apple Pencil. The Apple Pencil must be charged via a USB-C cable connected to the iPad or a separate charger, as it does not charge wirelessly when attached magnetically to this iPad model. Additionally, the iPad itself does not support wireless charging or MagSafe accessories.
The device is eSIM-capable and supports eSIM only, it does not have a physical SIM card slot. The iPad 2025 (11th gen) is an eSIM-only model that only uses eSIM technology.
This means you can activate and use an eSIM via a QR code from your mobile phone provider, as is common with newer iPads. If you are contradicted when you ask, this may be due to misunderstandings, because according to official information, eSIM is definitely possible and intended.
You can use the first-generation Apple Pencil and the Apple Pencil (USB-C) with the iPad 2025 (11th gen) with Wi-Fi. The iPad does not support the Apple Pencil Pro or the second-generation Apple Pencil. A USB-C adapter is required for charging the first-generation Apple Pencil.
The Apple Magic Keyboard Folio with Swiss QWERTY layout is suitable for the iPad 2025 (11th gen, 11", WLAN only). This keyboard is specifically compatible with the iPad 11" (2025, 11th gen, A16) and offers a stand-up function as well as protection for the front and back. It has a CH layout with German/French and is available in white.
Alternatively, you can also use Bluetooth keyboards from Apple or other suppliers, as the iPad is compatible with such keyboards.
The charging cable is included; an existing charger can be used, as the USB plug fits everywhere. If you don't already have a charger, you have to buy one, which in my opinion makes sense and is sustainable.
This iPad does not have Stage Manager, as this feature is reserved for certain more recent and more powerful iPad models, such as the iPad Air and Pro with M2 or M3 processors. With regard to compatibility with an external monitor, information specific to this model is not available in the data provided, but generally speaking, recent iPads can be connected to an external monitor via USB-C or other adapters, depending on the model's capabilities.
The Apple Pencil Pro is only compatible with certain iPad models released in 2024 or later. As the exact model number and release year of the iPad is not explicitly stated, I cannot say for sure whether the Apple Pencil Pro is compatible with this specific iPad. It would be advisable to consult the official Apple website to check the exact compatibility.
The iPad is suitable for school as it offers a variety of functions that are useful for education. It supports Apple Pencil and keyboard accessories, making it ideal for note-taking and creative tasks. It also offers stable performance thanks to the A16 Bionic chip and enough storage space for school materials. However, it lacks some advanced functions that are available in other iPad models.
According to our information, the product does not have a function for automatically measuring eye distance or screen distance. This is a standard display without corresponding sensors
If you want a case with an integrated keyboard, the following article with the number 23092613 would be compatible.
You can also use a Bluetooth keyboard only, e.g. article number: 46729853.
According to our information, the following Logitech keyboard case is compatible with the 2025 iPad model: Logitech Combo Touch Case (CH, iPad Air 11 2024 (M2))
The following Logitech keyboard models in particular are compatible with the Apple iPad 2025 (11th generation):
- Logitech Combo Touch for iPad Air 11" (M3, 2025) and iPad Air 11" (M2, 2024). This keyboard is a detachable keyboard with touchpad and offers a good protective function as a cover. It is specially designed for the iPad Air 11" of the latest generations and also works with the iPad 2025 (11th gen).
Other Logitech keyboards such as the Slim Folio Pro are designed more for older iPad Pro 11" models (e.g. 2nd generation) and are not explicitly designed for the iPad 2025 (11th gen).
To summarise, the Logitech Combo Touch for iPad Air 11" (M3, 2025) is the recommended and compatible Logitech keyboard for the iPad 2025 (11th gen).
The iPad 2025 (11th Gen) with 11-inch display and Wi-Fi only supports the Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro 11-inch (1st generation or later) and the Magic Keyboard Folio, which features a detachable keyboard and protective back cover. Both keyboards connect magnetically and offer a comfortable typing experience with backlighting and USB-C pass-through charging.
As an Apple Pencil, the 2nd generation Apple Pencil is compatible as the iPad 2025 utilises the Apple A16 Bionic processor and iPadOS 18, which is the same as the Apple Pencil 2 (this is the standard compatibility for iPads of this generation).
Inexpensive alternatives to the Apple keyboard and stylus are available from third-party suppliers who offer Bluetooth keyboards and capacitive stylus pens. These are often cheaper, but do not offer the full integration and functions of the Apple Magic Keyboard or the Apple Pencil 2. For keyboards, Bluetooth models that are compatible with iPadOS are suitable, and for pens, capacitive stylus pens that allow basic writing and drawing.
Summary:
- Apple Magic Keyboard (11-inch) and Magic Keyboard Folio are compatible and offer magnetic attachment, backlighting and USB-C pass-through.
- Apple Pencil 2 is the matching Apple Pencil for this iPad.
- Inexpensive alternatives are Bluetooth keyboards and capacitive stylus pens from third-party providers, but with more limited functions.
Do tablets have Win11 and office365 on board?
How many inches of screen diameter are required to read a daily newspaper comfortably, i.e. with only a little scrolling?
Some devices state "WLAN only". Is this to be taken literally, or are they also equipped with a Bluetooth connection?
Printing from a tablet is probably possible, isn't it?
Also listening to music and headphone or earphone connection?
Are freely available pens compatible with every tablet model?
Thank you for your prompt answers. Greetings, theo
Hello Theo
this is an iOS device, not Windows. Parts of Microsoft 365 are available on iOS. If you already have a Microsoft 365 plan, the iOS versions are already paid for. Printing from iOS devices depends on the printer: HP offers corresponding apps and this works well.
Broadband connectivity is available via WLAN or SIM card: WLAN only devices do not have a SIM slot (or eSIM). Listening to music via loudspeakers is possible without any problems, also via bluetooth headphones - for pens and wired headphones, check exactly what fits for each model - the chance that it won't fit is high and compatibility is close to zero. Reading the daily newspaper without scrolling: I have deliberately saved this question for last: which daily newspaper do you read: with longer print articles from the NZZ you will have to scroll almost all the way round on the 90" display - with other suppliers a 6" display is sufficient. Take a look at the device in the showroom and open the website of your favourite newspaper with any visual aids.
Rolf wishes you lots of fun with the new device
