Amazon has just slashed the price of the brand-new 2025 11th generation Apple iPad (A16) tablet, making it an irresistible deal for tech enthusiasts and gift-givers alike. Starting today, you can snag this latest model in all four vibrant colors—Blue, Yellow, Pink, and Silver—each boasting 128GB of storage and Wi-Fi connectivity, for only $299. That's a significant $50 drop from its original $349 price tag, marking the best discount we've seen on this model since its launch earlier this year. With Mother's Day approaching on May 11, this iPad makes for an exceptional gift that combines performance and style. Given the rarity of such discounts on recently released iPads, this sale is expected to be fleeting, so don't miss out.
Update: Just last week, the price of these iPads was reduced from $349 to $319, and now it's been lowered yet again to $299. Initially, only the Blue and Yellow variants were on sale, but now all four colors are available at this discounted rate.

For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) strikes the perfect balance between performance and affordability, delivering all the advantages of iOS with snappy performance. The current generation, released on March 12, 2025, comes over two years after its predecessor (launched in October 2022). This model boasts significant upgrades including a more powerful A16 processor (versus A14), increased RAM to 6GB (from 4GB), and doubled storage at 128GB (up from 64GB). Impressively, the launch price of $349 is even lower than the previous model's starting price of $399.
The iPad retains its 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display with a resolution of 2360x1640 (264ppi), USB Type-C charging, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, and the same camera system. It's also compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard, transforming it into a mini laptop ideal for enhanced productivity, making it an excellent choice for students. Additionally, it supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C, further enhancing its versatility.
