Targeting the iPad Air 13″ (M3) in CSS
Device-specific media queries are brittle — a new model with the same width will not match. Use them for genuine per-device fixes only, and prefer width buckets for layout.
/* Target iPad Air 13″ (M3) specifically */
@media only screen
and (device-width: 1024px)
and (device-height: 1366px)
and (-webkit-device-pixel-ratio: 2) {

}
/* More useful in practice — the width bucket it falls into */

Questions about the iPad Air 13″ (M3) screen
What is the screen size of the iPad Air 13″ (M3)?
The iPad Air 13″ (M3) has a 13-inch display. In CSS the viewport measures 1024 × 1366 px in portrait, and the panel itself has 2048 × 2732 physical pixels at 264 PPI.
What resolution should I design for on the iPad Air 13″ (M3)?
Design at 1024 × 1366 and export assets at 2×. That gives you 2048 × 2732 px images, which is exactly what the panel renders. Designing directly at 2048 × 2732 means every measurement is 2 times larger than the CSS values you will write.
What is the device pixel ratio of the iPad Air 13″ (M3)?
The iPad Air 13″ (M3) reports a device pixel ratio of 2. One CSS pixel therefore covers 4 device pixels. You can read it in JavaScript with window.devicePixelRatio.
What are the safe area insets on the iPad Air 13″ (M3)?
In portrait the safe area inset is 24 px at the top and 20 px at the bottom (iPad 13″, home indicator). Use env(safe-area-inset-*) rather than hard-coding these — the values change per device and per orientation.
Which other devices have the same viewport as the iPad Air 13″ (M3)?
6 other devices share the 1024 × 1366 CSS viewport: iPad Air 13″ (M4), iPad Air 13″ (M2), iPad Pro 12.9″ (6th), iPad Pro 12.9″ (5th), iPad Pro 12.9″ (4th), iPad Pro 12.9″ (3rd). A layout that works on one works on all of them.
