Apple's newest iPad is also its most affordable with this $50-off all-time low discount
One of the best Apple Memorial Day deals is still live after the holiday weekend. It's rare to see one of the newest releases from Apple at its all-time low price, but that's the case for the new 11-inch iPad with A16 chip. Courtesy of Amazon, it's down to the best price ever in all four colors. Apple 11-Inch iPad A16 The new version of our pick for the best iPad landed at its best price ever over Memorial Day weekend. It's such a good deal that I'm back to highlight Apple's latest tablet for $50 off the usual price. It even comes in all four of the new our review Echoing the advice of my colleagues and tech experts, Henry T. Casey and Mike Andronico, the best iPad that most people can buy just so happens to be the most affordable tablet Apple sells. As far as our current standings go, the previous-generation version of this 11-inch iPad currently holds the top spot. But that won't be the case for long. The newest iteration improves upon our best-tested pick with some enhanced internal specifications. While the improved A16 chip means that it will do a better job at handling tasks in the present, it also means that the tablet will keep working for years to come into the future. Normally, I'd hold back on recommending that you buy the latest and greatest version of any product. But when a deal like this comes around, it's the only offer that makes sense to recommend. I know that not everyone needs the current model, but think of it this way: Today's $50 discount means you can score the most future-proof offering in Apple's lineup for less. The previous-generation model is no longer sold anywhere, so this is your best bet at an affordable tablet. Today's tech deal checks all the boxes. It's an all-time low price, for starters, and means you can score the latest release from Apple for less than ever before. The iPad A16 also comes in four colors, all of which are marked down at Amazon — so this isn't one of those deals where you have to buy one of the overstocked styles to save. This isn't just the most notable offering from Apple, but it's also one of the best tablets on the market, period. The only reason I wouldn't recommend this is if you're shopping for something outside of Apple's ecosystem, in which case, I'd suggest pursuing our guide to the best Android tablets.
