Amazon continues to offer enticing discounts on the latest Apple iPad models, including the new iPad (March 2025), iPad Mini (October 2024), and iPad Air (March 2025). This sale, which began just before Mother's Day, is still in effect, though some color options are beginning to revert to their original prices. Such substantial discounts on recently released iPads are rare, so these deals are likely to disappear soon.

The latest model, released on March 12, 2025, represents a significant upgrade over the previous generation from October 2022. Key improvements include a more powerful A16 processor, increased RAM from 4GB to 6GB, and doubled storage capacity from 64GB to 128GB. Remarkably, this new model's launch price of $349 is lower than the previous model's starting price of $399.
The retained features include a 10.9" Liquid Retina display with a resolution of 2360x1640 (264ppi), USB Type-C charging, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, and the same camera system. Its compatibility with the Magic Folio keyboard transforms it into a versatile mini laptop, ideal for students and professionals alike. Additionally, it supports the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.
