Amazon has slashed the price of the 10th-generation Apple iPad to just $259.99 with free shipping! Currently, this stellar deal includes the Blue and Silver color options. This price is incredibly close to the all-time low of $249, a price briefly seen during Black Friday before selling out. This price drop is likely due to the recent announcement of the 11th-generation iPad, now available for preorder on Amazon with a March shipping date.

We've chosen this model as our top overall iPad of 2025. For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) offers the best balance of iOS features, snappy performance, and affordability. This 10th-generation iPad boasts a 10.9" display, the powerful A14 Bionic chip, 64GB of storage, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, a convenient USB-C charging port, and compatibility with the Magic Folio keyboard for a laptop-like experience. While a newer iPad is on the horizon, the price difference might not justify the incremental upgrades for many.

If you're willing to spend an extra $70-$90, the 2025 11th-generation iPad is available for preorder. It features a more powerful A16 Bionic chip, a slightly larger 11" display, and 128GB of storage. Note that Apple Intelligence will not be included. The upgrades are incremental, but for long-term users, they might be worthwhile.
