Released on March 12, 2025, over two years after the previous generation (October 2022), the current model boasts significant upgrades: a more powerful A16 processor (versus A14), increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and doubled storage from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is lower than the previous generation's $399.
The specs that have remained consistent include the 10.9" Liquid Retina 2360x1640 (264ppi) display, 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 one of the best iPads for students, and works with the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
