Does iPad 10 have Face ID capability

Too much multi-tasking with bug analysis - and trying to do too many things at once.

You are quite correct in that the iPad Air3 and Air4 do not use FaceID. These models along with the mini6 incorporate their TouchID sensor in the Top (Sleep/Wake) button as previously outlined. I note that a word was also dropped (an issue that I’m also looking at) when typing the original content - this error being subsequently copied into an incorrect correction.

So as to eliminate any confusion for the OP that I may have inadvertently caused, I’ll provide corrected and enhanced copy here - which, I hope, your own critical eye will QA without further issue.

There isn’t an iPad10. However, there are models of iPad that have 10.2”, 10.5” and 10.9” screens.

Not sure which iPad you have? Identify your iPad model.

FaceID is an exclusive feature of the 2020/2021 models of iPad Pro. The 2020/2021 models of iPad Air (i.e., Air3 and Air4) and the 2021 iPad mini (the mini6) do not have a physical Home Button within which to accommodate a TouchID sensor; these models - instead incorporate a TouchID sensor within their Top (Sleep/Wake) button.

All other recent models of iPad use TouchID - with the sensor being incorporated within the main Home Button on the front-face of the iPad.

For Face ID, you would need an iPad Pro. The iPad, iPad mini, and iPad Air all still use Touch ID.

I have a mini 5th gen, and use Touch ID all the time. I find it more convenient.

the current iPads are,

iPad (9th gen)

iPad Mini (6th gen)

iPad Air (4th gen)

ipad pro (5th gen)

If you want Face ID, you have to get the pro.

Their isn’t an iPad10.

FaceID is a feature of the 2020/2021 models of iPad Pro and the 2020 iPad Air. The 2021 models of iPad and iPad mini lack a physical Home Button - and incorporate a TouchID sensor within their Top (Sleep/Wake) button.

Other recent models of iPad use TouchID - with the sensor being incorporated within the main Home Button on the front-face of the iPad.

Actually, hearing LotusPilot say that there is no iPad 10, reminds me of something I was planning on saying. The 9th gen iPad was just released, and no one has any info out the next iPad. As apple has kept the iPhone SE for the people who prefer the home button, I would guess they woke do the same for the iPad.

Well caught - a slip of the finger.

The text (corrected) should read:

Do what you feel is best for you! :)

and I always hate calling people out on stuff like that, especially the people that are older, considering I’m only 13. And normally, they’re the ones calling ME out.

And also, LotusPilot, I double checked online, and there is no Face ID on the iPad Air 2020 (4th gen)

Uh, there is nothing past the 2020 model. The 2020 (4th gen) is the latest model, not featuring Face ID.

You’re forgiven, I’ve been caught up in a lot before and got easily mixed up. And looking at your level, you get caught up in MUCH more than I have. Have a great day!

Perhaps its time for me to go and lie down for while… 🙂

Thank you for the entirely appropriate call-out.
