Starting today, Amazon has slashed the price of the latest 2025 11th generation Apple iPad (A16) tablet. The Blue and Yellow base models, both equipped with 128GB of storage and Wi-Fi connectivity, are now available for just $319.99 after a $30 discount. This is the most significant price drop we've seen for this model since its launch earlier this year, making it a fantastic gift option for Mother's Day on May 11. Given that only a few colors are on sale at this price, the deal is likely to last only a few days.

For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) strikes the perfect balance between iOS features, performance, and affordability. Released on March 12, 2025, over two years after the previous model (October 2022), this generation boasts significant upgrades including the powerful A16 chip (versus the A14), increased RAM to 6GB (from 4GB), and a base storage of 128GB (up from 64GB). Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is lower than the $399 starting price of the previous generation.
The unchanged features 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. 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.
