Apple's 9th-gen iPad returns to an all-time low of $199 for October Prime Day

Apple's 9th-gen iPad has dropped back down to a record low price. If you're looking for the cheapest possible iPad that can handle basic tasks, this is perhaps the way to go.

Apple released it in 2021 and the company has since rolled out another base iPad, along with several mini, Pro and Air models. This sale feels very much like a case of trying to clear out old stock, but there are plenty of valid reasons to opt for the 9th-gen iPad instead of a more powerful model. You'll be able to doodle on this iPad with the original Apple Pencil, but this model is not best suited for professional-level design work or productivity.
