Amazon just slashed the price of the 10th-generation Apple iPad to $259.99 with free shipping! Currently, you can snag it in Blue or Silver at this amazing price. This is incredibly close to its all-time low—a fleeting $249 during Black Friday before it sold out. This price drop is likely due to the recent announcement of the new 11th-generation iPad, now available for preorder on Amazon with a March shipping date.

We chose this model as our best 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 A14 Bionic chip, 64GB of storage, Wi-Fi 6, a USB-C port, and Magic Folio keyboard compatibility—transforming it into a mini-laptop for enhanced productivity. While a newer iPad is on the horizon, the price difference might not justify the incremental upgrades.

If you're willing to spend $70-$90 more, 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 mostly incremental, but if you plan on keeping it long-term, the upgrade might be worthwhile.
