Whether you’re reading the latest HuffPost article or looking through family photos, sometimes scrolling on your phone just doesn’t cut it. If you’ve been looking for a new device that’s easy to use, actually practical and won’t totally break the bank, you can snag a 2021 Apple 10.2-inch iPad from Amazon or Target for just $199 — a whole 40% off its regular price and the lowest price we’ve seen since September. We’re unsure how long this deal sticks around, so if you’re considering grabbing a new tablet, now’s the time!
This 9th generation model runs on Wi-Fi, has a full 10 hours of battery life, Apple pencil and smart keyboard capabilities and an ultra-wide front-facing camera with Apple’s “center stage” tech that automatically adjusts the camera to your face as you move around on FaceTime.
An A13 bionic chip supports its 10.2-inch retina display and user-friendly operation. The chip provides the graphics performance needed for playing games, watching videos or browsing social media.
This device uses lighting ports, so it’s likely you can use your existing iPhone charger with it. Best of all, it weighs just over a pound, making it easy to carry and hold whether you’re on the go or lounging on the couch.
If you’re looking to play games, take virtual notes, video chat family or just surf the web, this handy device will help you do it all. Nab this iPad at its lowest price — and act fast, because we’re not sure how long this deal will last.
“Using the Apple iPad (9th generation), I’ve found it to be a reliable and versatile device that balances performance and value. The 10.2-inch Retina display offers sharp and vibrant visuals, making it enjoyable for everything from streaming videos to browsing the web. The A13 Bionic chip ensures smooth performance for multitasking and running apps, and it handles most tasks with ease, from casual gaming to productivity work. The iPadOS provides a user-friendly experience with access to a wide range of apps and features that enhance productivity and entertainment. The addition of the Center Stage feature during video calls is a nice touch, keeping you in the frame as you move around. Battery life is impressive, comfortably lasting through a day of regular use. For those seeking a dependable tablet that offers great performance without breaking the bank, the 9th generation iPad is a solid choice. It delivers a good mix of functionality and affordability, making it a practical option for both casual users and those needing a device for work or study.” — mr newyork
“This IPad 9th generation is definitely one you should get if ur looking for an amazing budget iPad. This IPad has every feature that the newer (IPad air/pro) has if looking at the big things. It came with no scratches or cosmetic blemishes. Its A13 chip really shines, super fast performance and battery life is insane. Not lying, it lasts me 10 hours. The screen quality is amazing and has True Tone which IPad 8th gen and under don’t have. It’s very durable and the weight is so nice and feels great when you’re holding it. Also, I’d recommend an Apple Pencil just to get the full iPad experience (it’s not mandatory but if u have the extra money I would definitely recommend). Especially for artists, I barely got into digital art with an Apple Pencil, it’s a world of difference. Pressure sensitivity and just the overall fluidity that the Apple Pencil has with the IPad is heavenly. Anyways, I would recommend this IPad for anyone, amazing product.” — Jonathan
“I got this for my kids my youngest being 4. I love it so much better than other children tablets. It has much better child safety features, easier to use, and because I have an iPhone I can also control the safety features form my phone. It’s much more durable than other children’s tablets especially if you get a children’s case. I’ve gone through 3 other types of tablets and I will say it’s worth the money to get the iPad.” — Brittany
“I love my iPad it was super easy to set up. The picture is great on it and snd screen in clear. It easily connects to your apple account. So far it’s be very durable and has worked perfectly.” — Ashley M
“If you need a basic iPad, this is the one to get, if you don’t care about the extra features and newer design the new iPads have, and if you want to save a buck. If you want a digital notebook for college, then this is the one to get, pair it with the gen 1 Apple Pencil, and it does the job fine. This is a good device for most things, except for maybe high performance gaming, video editing, or any graphics intensive game or software. If you are looking to use an iPad for artistic purposes, getting one with the more accurate colors would be worth it, but this iPad is sufficient for most day to day applications. I would recommend this over the iPad 10th gen, because you spend less and you don’t lose much, except for usb c and the new design, and this iPad 9th gen has a headphone jack, which some may care about, it is convenient to have. The new iPad does not have one, so if you plan to use wired headphones with the iPad, I would go with the 9th gen. But overall it is a very good device for most people in my opinion, and that the more expensive ones are pretty overkill if you just want to use basic tablet applications.” — Michael Murphy
