Author:Kristen Update:May 12,2025

Starting today, Amazon has slashed the price of the latest 2025 11th generation Apple iPad (A16) tablet. The Blue and Yellow base models, which come with 128GB of storage and Wi-Fi connectivity, are now available for just $319.99, reflecting a $30 discount. This is the most significant price drop we've seen for the newest iPad model since its launch earlier this year, making it an excellent gift option for Mother's Day, set for May 11. Given that only a few color options are available at this reduced price, the sale is likely to end within a few days.

For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) strikes the perfect balance between performance and affordability, offering all the advantages of iOS. The current model, released on March 12, 2025, marks a significant upgrade from the previous generation launched in October 2022. Key enhancements include a more powerful A16 processor (versus the A14), increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and doubled storage from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, the starting price of $349 is lower than the $399 launch price of its predecessor.

The iPad retains its 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 ideal choice for students. Additionally, it supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
