Apple's new iPad A16 can be yours for under $300


A few colorways of the A16-powered, entry-level tablet have dropped to $299.

It's not quite as refined or powerful as the iPad Air, as it's a bit slower for more involved tasks, and its non-laminated display has a harder time fending off glare. $299 at Amazon Apple didn't increase the price of this latest base iPad compared to the previous model, but it added 2GB of RAM, doubled the storage space and slotted in a more powerful chipset that's fast enough for most common tasks, including moderate gaming and lighter media editing.
