The iPad A16 finally goes on sale at a proper discount on Amazon

Didn't get a chance to grab your next iPad before Apple adjusted the prices of its existing models? I've got amazing news for you. Amazon has just released its first major iPad A16 promo since the June price adjustment, allowing you to save a hefty $99 on one particular model.

I'm talking about the Blue color variant version with cellular support and 128GB of storage. After the price adjustment, this configuration got increased to about $600, but you can now get it for just under $500. 

• If you're looking for a more capable iPad, the iPad Air M4 is down by 7% at Amazon.

The "base" iPad may be the least exciting device from the Apple tablet lineup, but it's still way more powerful than most mid-range Android devices. Thanks to its A16 chipset, the device can handle most daily tasks without any hiccups, and it can even run some gaming titles and light multitasking. 

What's more, since this model comes with cellular connectivity, it lets you browse the web even when you're on the go. Plus, thanks to the lightweight and premium-looking design, this model doesn't take too much space in your backpack.

In terms of screen quality, you're not getting peak Apple here. The model packs an 11-inch Liquid Retina panel, which supports a rather modest 60Hz refresh rate. While it doesn't deliver an ultra-crisp resolution and vivid colors, the display is still bright and color-accurate enough for everyday use. 

In addition, as our iPad A16 review shows, the device gives you over 10 hours of nonstop browsing and nearly eight hours of gaming on a single charge. 

Bottom line: the iPad A16 is a great choice for everyday use, and now that you can get it with a $99 discount, it's an even better buy. Head to Amazon and save big while this ongoing promo lasts.
