iPad (10th gen)

From $449 (Wi–Fi), $599 (Wi–Fi + cellular) From apple.com

Features 10.9–inch Liquid Retina display with True Tone (2,360 x 1,640 pixels), A14 Bionic chip, 64 or 256GB of storage, Wi–Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, USB–C, 12MP Wide camera (rear), 12MP Landscape Ultra Wide camera (front), works with Apple Pencil (1st gen), 1.05 pounds

THE NEW iPAD finally takes Apple’s base model tablet into the future. Or at least the present. The large bezels, ancient Home button and Lightning port are gone, replaced with a larger 10.9–inch display that nearly goes edge–to–edge, a power button with Touch ID built in and USB–C charging.

Measuring 9.79 x 7.07 x 0.28 inches and weighing 1.05 pounds (1.06 pounds for cellular), the iPad (10th gen) is thinner and lighter than the iPad (9th gen), with a pretty funky color palette to choose from.
