Apple’s entry-level iPad is down to a record-low price

Even if you missed Prime Day last week, you can still save on some of our favorite tech today. That, believe it or not, includes some Apple devices. One of the best deals still lingering on the internet is on the iPad A16, which is down to a record low of $279.

This tablet made our list of the best iPads and we particularly recommend it for the budget-conscious. It may lack some of the bells and whistles of its more expensive cousins, but it still gets the job done. It’s fast enough for most common tasks and the battery life is solid, at 10 hours per charge. It also ships with 6GB of RAM, which is a decent enough metric.

The tablet integrates with Wi-Fi 6 and features a USB-C connector, along with a pair of 12MP cameras. There’s also a Touch ID sensor, which can be used to unlock the device and to make payments.

This is the most basic tablet in Apple’s lineup, so it lacks some features. It doesn’t integrate with the Apple Pencil Pro or the Magic Keyboard. The display is also not quite as gorgeous as the iPad Air or Pro, but it’s still a Liquid Retina panel.
