Apple iPad 10.2-Inch (9th Gen)
Apple’s 9th Gen iPads are available for just $199 at Amazon and Best Buy right now. The substantial $130 cut from its regular $329 price matches the lowest recorded price for this 64GB model. This particular offer has surfaced intermittently over recent months and is consistently popular whenever available. Despite its age, the 9th Gen iPad remains a competitive choice offering high performance and dependability at this price point.
The model comes with the robust A13 Bionic chip, sports a 10.2-inch Retina display, includes a 64GB SSD, and features two cameras (12MP front and 8MP rear), making it ideal for various activities like gaming, video streaming, and browsing. It promises up to 10 hours of battery life on a single charge and incorporates Touch ID for enhanced security when not in use.
The package includes the iPad (9th Gen), a Lightning to USB-C cable, and a 20W USB-C Power Adapter. Both the silver and space gray variants are covered by the sale, although it’s not specified when this promotional price will end, so quick action might be wise.
Additionally, the new iPad can be paired with the Gen 1 Apple Pencil, available for $69, reduced from $99 at Amazon. The Apple’s Smart Keyboard is another option for $149, slightly down from $159. Given the close pricing between the Smart Keyboard and the tablet itself, third-party keyboard cases like the popular variant from Typecase priced at $56 (originally $65), featuring backlit keys, a touchpad, and a slot for the Apple Pencil might be appealing. For simple protection, consider the budget alternative to Apple’s Smart Folio available in black for only $10.
For a more powerful iPad that’s still affordable, consider the 10th Gen iPad with A14 chip available for $299 at Amazon. For those looking for a smaller device, the 8.3-inch iPad Mini with the superior A15 chip is reduced to $380 from $500.
The latest models, the iPad Pro M4 and iPad Air M2 launched in May, are also on offer. Amazon has reduced the price of the 2024 iPad Pro 11-inch by $100 and the 13-inch version by $110, both equipped with the new M4 chip. Meanwhile, the iPad Air 11-inch with an M2 chip is currently $30 off.
