For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) is the ideal choice, offering all the benefits of iOS with snappy performance at an affordable price. The current generation model, released on March 12, 2025, comes over two years after its predecessor from October 2022. It boasts significant upgrades including a more powerful A16 processor compared to the A14, increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and more storage at 128GB instead of 64GB. Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is actually lower than the previous generation's starting price of $399.

The model retains its 10.9" Liquid Retina display with 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 mini laptop for enhanced productivity, making it an excellent choice for students. Additionally, it supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.

Amazon is currently offering the 7th generation Apple iPad Air M3 at its lowest price yet. The 11" model is now $499, while the 13" model is available for $699, both after a $100 instant discount. These are the best prices we've seen for this 2025 model equipped with the M3 chip. Released in March, this current generation model is just one year newer than the 6th gen, with the primary upgrade being the transition from the M2 to the more powerful M3 chip.
