Apple's Budget iPad Steals the Show!

Apple's latest base-model iPad is currently on sale for $279, matching its all-time low price ahead of Black Friday. This model features the A16 chip, providing ample power for common tasks like streaming, casual gaming, and browsing. It also offers 128GB of storage and an 11-inch display, making it the largest-screened entry-level iPad to date, with a battery life that can last a full day.

While this iPad doesn't support Apple Intelligence or accessories like the Apple Pencil Pro, it remains a capable device for general use.
