As of Feb. 2, the 11-inch Apple iPad (A16) is $299.99 at Amazon, down from $349. That's a 14% discount or $49.01 in savings. While this isn't the lowest we've seen (it dipped to around $274 during Black Friday), it's still a solid deal for a non-holiday window. Just note that this price is currently available on the pink and blue colorways; other finishes are still in the $320+ range.

This model features the A16 chip (which is more than fast enough for gaming and editing), an 11-inch Liquid Retina display, and 128GB of storage right out of the box — a much-needed bump from previous base models. It also supports USB-C charging (so you can use the same cable as your laptop) and offers all-day battery life.
