For context, the ~$500 tablet dropped by $150 sometime last month, which remains its most substantial discount. But this current $149 price cut is just as good, as it gives users who missed out on the previous deal another chance to save big!

By the way, the 256GB iPad A16 is also on sale at Amazon. The unit is currently $50 off its original price of nearly $450, meaning you can buy it for about $400. If you're after better performance, this buddy might be a more appropriate choice.

Sure, the 10th Gen iPad might be a bit older, but it's still a perfectly suitable choice for casual entertainment. It features a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display with True Tone support and great viewing angles. The refresh rate caps at 60Hz, but even the pricier iPad Air M3 models don't offer more, so at least that's something.

Under the hood, this fella packs an A14 Bionic chip, which delivers enough horsepower for everyday tasks and some gaming. Then again, the A16 SoC used in the newer base iPad is significantly more capable, so once again— it'll be the better pick for power users.

Battery life is no disappointment on the base iPad, either. While testing it, we estimated the device lasts over six hours with nonstop streaming. Find additional details on battery life, software, and more through our iPad 10th Gen review.

At the end of the day, the base iPad from 2022 may not be the most impressive iPad there ever was, but it still checks most boxes to this day. Plus, you can buy it at a really affordable price in its 256GB variant on Amazon right now. Don't miss out.
