Two of the most popular models of Apple’s iPad — the Apple iPad 10.2 and the Apple iPad 10.9 — gained a following because of their more affordable prices compared to premium models like the Apple iPad Pro.

The 9th-generation Apple iPad, which features a 10.2-inch Retina display, is still featured in our list of the best tablets as the best value tablet, despite launching in 2021. That’s because it’s able to handle all the basic tasks that you’d think about doing on a tablet, such as browsing the internet, checking social media, playing simple games, and watching streaming shows, with Apple’s A13 Bionic chip. The tablet also features an 8MP Wide back camera, a 12MP Ultra Wide front camera with Center Stage technology, and a battery life of up to 10 hours on a single charge.

The 10th-generation Apple iPad offers an all-new design that makes the tablet look sleeker and more modern, with a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display and Apple’s A14 Bionic chip that’s still pretty fast and smooth by today’s standards. The tablet retains its predecessors 12MP Ultra Wide front camera, but upgrades to a 12MP Wide back camera, and replaces the Lightning port with a USB-C port for improved compatibility. With all of these features and specifications, the 10th-generation Apple iPad claims its spot in our list of the best iPads as the best mid-range option.
