Apple iPad (11th Generation)

Out March 12### Apple iPad (11th Generation)

2$349.00 at AmazonIf you're looking for a tablet that meets everyday computing needs, the 11th-generation iPad is your go-to choice. It boasts the faster A16 chip, an upgrade from the A14 in the last model, and starts with a generous 128GB of storage at the same price point, doubling the previous generation's offering. The design and functionality remain consistent, available in stylish colors like silver, blue, yellow, and pink. While it's improved in various internal metrics, it's worth noting that this model does not include Apple Intelligence.

For those who can do without Apple Intelligence (and as an iPhone 16 owner, I can assure you it's not a deal-breaker), the 11th-gen iPad offers all the power and performance you'll need for common tasks such as gaming, web browsing, video watching, social media scrolling, and email checking. It's built to handle these activities smoothly for years to come.

If you're in need of more computing power than the basic model provides, the iPad Air with M3 chip is an excellent choice. It's available in both 11-inch and 13-inch sizes.

True to its name, the iPad Air is equipped with Apple's robust M3 chip and supports Apple Intelligence, setting it apart from the baseline model. It also pairs perfectly with the new Magic Keyboard (available at Apple), which features a convenient row of function keys and a trackpad.

Where to Buy Previous Generation iPads

With numerous generations of iPads released, you still have the option to purchase older models in 2025. The announcement of new models is always a prime time to snag a deal on previous iterations.
