Amazon Slashes Prices on Latest Apple iPads: New Discounts Applied

2025 marks an exceptional time to invest in one of Apple's latest iPads.

These deals are still available, offering up to 20% off compared to purchasing directly from the Apple Store, and they're even cheaper than with Apple's educational discount.

For the majority of users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) is the best choice, delivering all the advantages of iOS alongside robust performance at a budget-friendly price. Released on March 12, 2025, the current model comes over two years after its predecessor from October 2022. Upgrades include a more powerful A16 processor compared to the A14, increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and doubled storage from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is actually lower than the $399 of the previous generation.

The features that remain unchanged include the 10.9" Liquid Retina display with 2360x1640 resolution (264ppi), USB Type-C charging, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, and the same camera setup. Additionally, it's compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard, transforming it into a mini laptop for enhanced productivity, making it an excellent choice for students and compatible with the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
