Despite its low price tag, this is a capable and fully featured tablet. The Apple A13 Bionic chip offers very good CPU and GPU performance and the large 10.2-inch Retina display is bright and crisp. It's a great option for school, work, or simply relaxing with your favorite movie, book, or streaming service.

The iPad Mini may be the most diminutive tablet of the bunch, but that doesn't mean it's gimped in any way. Although it was released back in 2021, the still newest generation Apple iPad Mini is still more powerful than the new standard sized iPad that was release in late 2022. The iPad Mini features an 8.3" Liquid Retina display with True Tone and Wide Color, a very capable A15 Bionic processor, universal USB Type-C port for fast charging, and Apple Pencil 2 compatiblity. If you're looking for the most portable iPad, the iPad Mini is your pick.

The newest 5th generation Apple iPad Air was released in March of 2022 with a $599 MSRP. Yes it's substantially pricier than the original iPad, but it upgrades virtually every aspect of its hardware. It boasts a larger screen size (10.9" vs 10.2") with both True Tone and P3 wide color. It has the same powerful Apple M1 chip found in the 2021 iPad Pro. Despite the more powerful hardware, the iPad Air is roughly the same size as the 10.2-inch iPad thanks to the slimmer bezel and weighs less. There's even a universal USB Type-C port.
