For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) strikes the perfect balance, offering all the benefits of iOS with snappy performance at an affordable price. The current generation model, released on March 12, 2025, brings significant upgrades over the previous generation from October 2022. These include a more powerful A16 processor (versus A14), increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and doubled storage from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is lower than the previous model's $399.

The specs that have carried over include the stunning 10.9" Liquid Retina display with 2360x1640 resolution (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. Additionally, it supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
