The New 2025 Apple iPad Drops to the Lowest Price Ever, But Only on Amazon

Author:Kristen Update:Apr 26,2025

Starting today, Amazon has slashed the price of the latest 2025 11th generation Apple iPad (A16) tablet. The Blue and Yellow base models, featuring 128GB of storage and Wi-Fi connectivity, are now available for just $319.99, following a $30 discount. This marks the best deal we've seen on this new generation iPad since its launch earlier this year, making it a perfect gift for Mother's Day, coming up on May 11. Given that only a few colors are available at this reduced price, the sale is likely to be short-lived, so act fast.

For the majority of users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) strikes the perfect balance between performance and affordability, delivering all the advantages of iOS. Released on March 12, 2025, over two years after its predecessor from October 2022, the current model boasts significant upgrades including a more powerful A16 processor compared to the A14, an increase in RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and a boost in storage from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is even lower than the $399 of the previous generation.

The iPad retains the 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 excellent choice for students. Plus, it supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
