Apple’s cheapest iPads are still steeply discounted following Prime Day


That includes the ninth-gen model, which starts at $199.

Both entry-level tablets are well-suited for streaming, browsing the web, and shooting off emails, though the newer model sports a slightly larger 10.9-inch screen and a faster processor in the form of Apple’s A14 Bionic. It also features a USB-C port instead of Apple’s Lightning connector (phew) and cribs some of the modern design language from the pricier iPad Air, resulting in smaller bezels and Touch ID fingerprint scanner in the power button. It’s an excellent 4K set overall, with punchy contrast, deep black levels, and support for Google’s TV interface, which is great at aggregating and recommending content from across streaming services.
