For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) strikes the perfect balance between iOS benefits and performance at a budget-friendly price. Launched on March 12, 2025, this model is a significant upgrade over its October 2022 predecessor. It boasts a more powerful A16 processor compared to the A14, increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and doubled storage from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, its starting price of $349 is even lower than the $399 launch price of the previous model.
The new iPad retains the beloved 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. Additionally, it supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C, enhancing its versatility for creative tasks.
