For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) is the best choice, offering all the benefits of iOS and snappy performance at an affordable price. The current generation model was released on March 12, 2025, over two years after the previous generation (October 2022). Upgrades include a more powerful processor (A16 vs A14), more RAM (6GB vs 4GB), and increased storage (128GB vs 64GB). Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is actually lower than the $399 price of the previous model.

The specs that remain unchanged include the 10.9" Liquid Retina 2360x1640 (264ppi) display, USB Type-C charging, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, and the same camera. It's also compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard, allowing you to transform it into a mini laptop for enhanced workflow, making it an excellent choice for students. It supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
