The best deal we\u2019ve seen on the new iPad 11 takes $50 off the tablet\u2019s retail price of $349. That drops the entry-level tablet to its best price yet: $299<\/a> in all colors. That\u2019s only a 99 cents less than we saw last month, but at least it\u2019s not going up.<\/p>\n The budget iPad, which launched in March, offers solid performance for basic tasks like surfing the web, streaming videos and handling email. Plus, it comes with a welcome boost over the iPad 10\u2019s base level of storage.<\/p>\n This post contains affiliate links<\/a>.

It’s a great option for watching videos, checking emails, surfing the web and more.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \t\t<\/p>\n \t\t<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n When Apple CEO Steve Jobs<\/a> demoed the first iPad in 2010<\/a>, the tablet made waves in the tech world. Everybody wanted that thin slab of glass that seemed like the ultimate magical computing device. When the original iPad went on sale<\/a> later that year, it set records for Apple. Since then, Apple has continually raised the bar with regular upgrades. (The company also introduced three new models: iPad Air<\/a>, iPad Pro<\/a> and iPad mini<\/a>).<\/p>\n The entry-level iPad in this deal still delivers excellent performance and value, with Apple\u2019s typical premium hardware design. It\u2019s the right choice for anyone looking for a device for consuming content, performing basic tasks and playing Apple Arcade<\/a> games.<\/p>\n If you need a new iPad, this deal delivers a quality Apple tablet at a sizable savings.<\/p>\n This deal on the latest version of the budget iPad lands you one of Apple\u2019s most popular tablets.\u00a0This year\u2019s iPad 11<\/a>\u00a0comes with a faster A16 processor and doubles the base storage capacity to 128KB. Otherwise, the tablet maintains the same basic specs as the iPad 10.<\/p>\n But it\u2019s certainly no slouch. The 11-inch screen is much better for work or play than the 9.7-inch displays in older iPads. Still, the computer remains very portable, making even the slimmest MacBook feel heavy. The A16 chip easily handles web browsing, email, games and more. As a bonus, the front-facing camera is as good as the ones in much pricier models, making the iPad 11 the real deal for video chatting. \u00a0The Cult of Mac<\/em> review calls it \u201ca brilliant product for the price<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n Perhaps the biggest surprise is that the A16 processor does not support Apple Intelligence<\/a>, the perhaps overhyped suite of AI features.<\/p>\n The tablet comes in four colors: silver, blue, pink and yellow. Curiously, Amazon has different prices for each color option, so shop carefully. The best deal is for the blue and yellow variants.<\/p>\n Buy from:<\/strong> Amazon<\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\tBest budget tablet\t\t\t<\/p>\n \t\t<\/p>\n Apple’s entry-level tablet gets a solid upgrade, with a welcome boost to the base model’s storage.
