For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) strikes the perfect balance between performance and affordability, offering nearly all the benefits of the iOS ecosystem. The 10th generation model brings significant enhancements over its predecessor, including a larger 10.9-inch display within the same compact footprint, thanks to a slimmer bezel. It's powered by the faster A14 Bionic chip, which delivers a 20% boost in CPU performance and a 10% increase in GPU performance compared to the A13. This iPad is now compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard, transforming it into a versatile mini laptop ideal for students and professionals alike. Additional upgrades include a universal USB Type-C port, an improved camera, and the latest Wi-Fi 6 protocol.

The current deal features the 64GB Wi-Fi model, available in all color options (Silver, Blue, Pink, and Yellow), with shipping guaranteed before Valentine's Day on February 14. Opting for models with more storage or cellular connectivity will significantly increase the cost, so sticking with the base model offers the best value.
