For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) delivers the best value—offering iOS functionality and smooth performance at an accessible price point. This 2025 model, released March 12, represents a significant upgrade over its 2022 predecessor with an A16 chip (vs. A14), 6GB RAM (vs. 4GB), and 128GB base storage (vs. 64GB). Remarkably, its $349 launch price is actually $50 lower than the previous generation.

Key carryover features include the crisp 10.9" Liquid Retina display, USB-C charging, Wi-Fi 6 support, and unchanged camera specs. It's also compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard and latest Apple Pencil models, making it ideal for students and mobile professionals.
