For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) is the best choice, offering all the benefits of iOS with snappy performance at an affordable price. The current generation, released on March 12, 2025, marks a significant upgrade from the October 2022 model. It boasts a more powerful A16 processor, increased RAM (6GB vs 4GB), and more storage (128GB vs 64GB). Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is lower than the previous model's $399.

The iPad retains 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 ideal for students, and supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
