"10th Gen Apple iPad Hits Lowest Price in 2025: Ideal for Most Users"

Author : Isabella Update : Mar 28,2025

Amazon has just slashed the price of the 10th generation Apple iPad to an impressive $259.99, including shipping. You can snag this deal in either Blue or Silver. This price is nearly the lowest we've ever seen; it briefly hit $249 during Black Friday, but sold out in less than 24 hours. The reason behind this price drop? The new 11th generation iPad has been announced and is now available for preorder on Amazon, with a shipping date set for March.

We've selected this model as the best overall iPad for 2025. For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) strikes the perfect balance, offering nearly all the benefits of the iOS operating system and snappy performance at a budget-friendly price. This 10th generation iPad boasts a 10.9" display, an A14 Bionic chip, 64GB of internal storage, WiFi-6 connectivity, a universal USB Type-C charging port, and compatibility with the Magic Folio keyboard, allowing you to transform it into a mini laptop for enhanced productivity. While a newer iPad is on the horizon, the price difference might not justify the incremental upgrades.

If you're willing to spend an additional $70-$90, the 2025 11th generation Apple iPad is now up for preorder. It comes equipped with a more powerful A16 Bionic chip, a slightly larger 11" display, and 128GB of internal storage. Note that Apple Intelligence will not be available. While the upgrades are incremental, if you plan to use the iPad for the long term, it might be worth the investment.
