For the majority of users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) stands out as the best choice, offering the full range of iOS benefits and swift performance at a budget-friendly price. Released on March 12, 2025, the current generation model boasts significant upgrades over its October 2022 predecessor. These include a more powerful A16 processor (versus A14), increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and enhanced storage from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is actually lower than the $399 price tag of the previous generation.

The iPad retains key features such as a 10.9" Liquid Retina display with 2360x1640 resolution (264ppi), USB Type-C charging, and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity. It also supports the same camera and is compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard, allowing it to transform into a mini laptop for enhanced productivity. This makes it an excellent choice for students, and it works seamlessly with the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.

$100 Off the New 2025 Apple iPad Air (M3)

Amazon is currently offering the 7th generation Apple iPad Air M3 tablets at the lowest prices seen so far. The 11" model is available for $499, while the 13" model is priced at $699, both with a $100 instant discount. This is the best price we've seen for this 2025 model equipped with the M3 chip. Released in March, the 7th gen iPad Air is the latest model, succeeding the 6th gen by just one year. The primary upgrade is the transition from the M2 to the M3 chip.
