Amazon has just announced a significant price drop on the 10th generation Apple iPad, now available for just $259.99 with free shipping. You can grab this deal in either Blue or Silver. This price is nearly the lowest we've ever seen for this model; it briefly hit $249 during Black Friday but sold out within 24 hours. The current discount is likely due to the recent announcement of the 11th generation iPad, which is now available for preorder on Amazon and set to ship in March.

We've named this 10th gen model the best overall iPad of 2025. For most users, the standard iPad strikes the perfect balance between performance and price, offering nearly all the advantages of the iOS ecosystem. This iPad boasts a 10.9-inch display, an A14 Bionic chip, 64GB of storage, WiFi-6 connectivity, and a universal USB Type-C charging port. It's also compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard, transforming it into a compact laptop for enhanced productivity. While the 11th gen iPad is on the horizon, the price increase might not justify the incremental upgrades for everyone.

If you're ready to spend an additional $70-$90, the 2025 11th gen Apple iPad is now up for preorder. This model features a more powerful A16 Bionic chip, a slightly larger 11-inch display, and 128GB of storage. Note that Apple Intelligence won't be available on this device. While the upgrades are modest, they might be worthwhile if you plan to use the iPad for years to come.
