"2025 Apple iPad Hits Record Low Price on Amazon"

Starting today, Amazon has significantly reduced the price of the latest 2025 11th generation Apple iPad (A16) tablet. The Blue and Yellow base models, both featuring 128GB of storage and Wi-Fi connectivity, are now available for just $319.99 after a $30 price cut. This marks the best deal seen on the newest iPad model since its launch earlier this year, making it an excellent choice for a Mother's Day gift, which falls on May 11. Given that only a select few colors are available at this discounted price, the offer is likely to be short-lived.

For the majority of users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) stands out as the best choice, offering all the advantages of iOS and impressive performance at a budget-friendly price. The current generation, released on March 12, 2025, marks a significant upgrade over its predecessor from October 2022. Key improvements include a more powerful A16 processor (versus the A14), an increase to 6GB of RAM (from 4GB), and a boost to 128GB of storage (from 64GB). Remarkably, this model launched at $349, which is actually lower than the $399 starting price of the previous generation.

Features that remain unchanged include 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. Additionally, it's compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard, allowing you to transform it into a mini laptop for enhanced productivity, making it an ideal choice for students. It also supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
