If you’re looking to upgrade your tablet, the Apple iPad is a popular and great choice. However, the iPad can cost you a pretty penny. Luckily, Apple’s iPad is currently down to $328 on Amazon. Keep in mind that Prime Day is coming up in a few weeks and it might bring additional savings. It could possibly even back down to it’s all time low price of $300. But if you can’t wait that long, this is still a great deal worth snapping up.
Apple recently slashed the price of its 10th-gen iPad following the debut of the new iPad Air and iPad Pro, and now has shrunk it even further. Despite being the more affordable model in the lineup, this iPad offers pretty much everything the typical tablet user would want in a tablet.
There are a number of improvements over its predecessor, including a larger 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, an improved 12-megapixel camera, better speakers and the A14 Bionic chip for faster performance. It’s also swapped in USB-C. This model comes with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, as well as Center Stage, which makes it excellent for video calling.

It’s worth noting that this iPad is not compatible with the Apple Pencil 2 or the new Apple Pencil Pro, so you’ll have to use the first-gen model and a USB-C dongle or grab the USB-C Pencil, both of which are sold separately. That said, our main gripe with this iPad was the cost over the older (but still functional) ninth-gen model — but this price cut solves that problem.
