Apple’s 9th-Gen iPad Is a Bargain Tablet Buy at Just $199 for a Limited Time Only

Don’t worry if you missed all the Labor Day sales, there are still some great savings to be had if you know where to look. Those on the hunt for a tablet deal need look no further than this 2021 ninth-gen iPad. While it isn’t the newest model anymore, it still has plenty to offer. It’s perfect as a starter tablet for those whose needs aren’t advanced enough to justify paying more and Amazon is offering currently a massive 40% off on Amazon. This is a limited-time deal though, meaning we can’t vouch for how long this price is going to last.

If you’re after a tablet that’s great for the basics like checking your email, streaming shows and exploring social media, this is one of the best iPad deals you’ll find out there right now. Apple’s 10.2-inch tablet may have been superseded by the 10th-gen iPad, which ditched the home button, but it has plenty of great features.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

It’s equipped with the still-capable A13 Bionic chip, an 8-megapixel wide-angle rear camera, a 12-megapixel ultrawide front camera with Center Stage technology and more. The Retina display has been upgraded from previous models. It has True Tone technology, which adjusts the screen for comfortable viewing in any light. 

It also includes a Lightning connector, instead of USB-C, which will be useful to those with plenty of Lightning cables around, and it gets up to 10 hours of battery life per charge. Plus, this 2021 iPad supports the first-gen Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard — they’re sold separately but can help you create and work more easily, so they may be worth the investment. 

For those preferring to go for the current-gen device, we’ve rounded up the best 10th-gen iPad deals from across the web.
