Slight correction to the above: while M1 and M2 are supported, Stage Manager support is not tied to M1 or later.

Stage Manager support for some iPad models pre-M1 was added.

iPad Pro 12.9” 3rd uses A12X and predates M1, for instance, and is supported by Stage Manager.

Feature availability is usually limited by system hardware - CPU and available RAM being critical to some advanced functionality. Models supporting Stage Manager have an M2, M1 or A12X CPU - with at least 8GB RAM.

True. Forgot about the new M2 iPads. "Newer M* CPU based iPads" then. 😜👍🏻
