You can find fantastic discounts on several of the latest iPad models, including the 11th-gen Apple iPad (A16), the 7th-gen iPad Air, and the iPad Mini (A17 Pro), all at the best prices we've seen this year.

The current model, released on March 12, 2025, comes over two years after the previous generation (October 2022). Notable upgrades include a more powerful A16 processor compared to the A14, increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and higher base storage from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is actually lower than the previous generation's starting price of $399.

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