Amazon has just slashed the price of the brand-new 2025 11th gen Apple iPad (A16) tablet. All four vibrant colors—Blue, Yellow, Pink, and Silver—featuring 128GB of RAM and Wi-Fi only are now available for just $299, marking a significant $50 price reduction. This is the most substantial discount we've seen on the latest iPad model since its debut earlier this year, making it an ideal gift for Mother's Day on May 11. Such a generous discount on a recently released iPad is rare, so don't expect this deal to last long.
Update: Last week, the price of these iPads dropped from $349 to $319. This week, it has fallen further to $299. Additionally, while only Blue and Yellow were on sale previously, now all four colors are discounted.

For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) strikes the perfect balance, offering all the advantages of iOS alongside brisk performance at a budget-friendly price. Released on March 12, 2025, over two years since the last model (October 2022), this generation boasts significant upgrades: a more powerful A16 processor compared to the A14, increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and doubled storage from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is even lower than the previous model's $399.
The specs that remain consistent include the 10.9" Liquid Retina display with 2360x1640 resolution (264ppi), USB Type-C charging, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, and the same camera. 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, and it supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
