Starting today, Amazon has slashed the price of the latest 2025 11th generation Apple iPad (A16) tablet. This impressive discount applies to all four color options—Blue, Yellow, Pink, and Silver—each with 128GB of storage and Wi-Fi only connectivity, now available for just $299 after a $50 reduction. This marks the most significant price drop for this model since its launch earlier this year, making it an ideal gift for Mother's Day, which falls on May 11. Such substantial discounts on newly released iPads are rare, so don't expect this offer to last more than a couple of days.
Update: Last week, the price of these iPads decreased from $349 to $319. This week, it has dropped further to $299. Additionally, while only Blue and Yellow were discounted last week, now all four colors are available at the reduced price.

Notable upgrades include a more powerful A16 processor (versus A14), increased RAM (6GB versus 4GB), and higher storage (128GB versus 64GB). Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is lower than the previous model's $399.
The features that remain unchanged are the 10.9" Liquid Retina display with a resolution of 2360x1640 (264ppi), USB Type-C charging, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, and the camera setup. It's also compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard, transforming it into a compact laptop for enhanced productivity, making it an excellent choice for students. Additionally, it supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
