For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) is the perfect choice, offering the full benefits of iOS with brisk performance at a wallet-friendly price. The latest model, released on March 12, 2025, boasts significant upgrades from its predecessor launched in October 2022. Key enhancements include a more powerful A16 processor (versus the A14), increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and a generous boost in storage from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, the launch price has been set at a more affordable $349, undercutting the previous model's initial $399 price tag.

The iPad retains its 10.9" Liquid Retina display with a 2360x1640 resolution (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 compact laptop for enhanced productivity, making it an excellent choice for students. Plus, it works seamlessly with the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
