Get the 2025 iPad for Under $300

Amazon has the 2025 11-inch iPad available for $299 this week, which is a $50 discount off of the regular price. If you're looking for an entry-level iPad that's affordable yet still plenty powerful enough for day to day tasks, the 2025 iPad is what you want.

If you need more storage space, Amazon also has the 256GB and 512GB models available at a $50 discount. Lower prices are available across all color options.



The iPad works with the USB-C Apple Pencil, which you can pick up from Amazon for $69. It's not too much of a discount, but the Apple Pencil rarely comes down in price.

It's a good time to buy an iPad because it was just refreshed earlier this year with a faster A16 chip, and we're not expecting a new model until 2026.

The base iPad continues to be one of the very best values Apple offers.

Can we get multiple users please? Thank you

to expand on this request - Apple, thank you for adding "Require FaceID" functionality. I think the feature works well in a pinch if its something that doesn't need to be installed in its own space. that being said, I do think apple should take things further *while still keeping the basic "require FaceID" functionality and add a separate, more comprehensive setup for folks who want the extra data separation.

To expand on the topic a bit, some phones already have a feature called "multiple users". on a phone, however, its sort of a misnomer because the feature is meant more for "multiple personal spaces" for a *single user* to be able to add and setup a few separate spaces for app/data separation for *only them*. and that's fine, but I think apple could innovate in this area and take what pixel does, but take it further, using their software prowess to help users with screen time. Also, on pixel, while there is a toggle to enable sms text messages to work in all the different users, the feature sometimes feels like maybe it doesn't work properly. that's another area where maybe apple can innovate and fix.

also, within the last year, Google added the ability to setup private space when still logged in to the default user. it works great, but I think again, apple could take that functionality and go further. one thing that could be improved is accessibility of getting to the private space itself. currently you have to scroll all the way down your app drawer to get to it, but apple could innovate a bit and give users the option to enable a launcher icon for quick access to private space, if desired.

Also, all of this doesn't have to *replace* the "Require FaceID", which still works well in instances where getting into a whole other "space" isn't required. But again, would be a solution for those of us who want a more comprehensive solution.

This seems to be the standard price on Amazon. After buying a set of AirPods Pros for my wife from Amazon, I've always been a bit leery since the AirPods that we received were already named (ie a return). But the 20% discount might make it worth overlooking that.
