The Best iPad for Most People
5/5
Although Apple’s entry-level iPad hasn’t seen a design refresh in years, it also hasn't seen a price increase, and for £319.99, the ninth-generation iPad is a killer deal. It performs better than pricier Android competitors, has a nice display well-suited for work and play, and will receive OS updates for years to come. The 12MP front-facing camera and the addition of Center Stage are also welcome upgrades for people who are working (or just video chatting) from home. And while iPadOS 15 may not be a full-on replacement for macOS or Windows, it's Apple’s most capable tablet OS to date. That makes the base model iPad our Editors' Choice winner among Apple's current tablet lineup, as well as for sub £500 tablets in general.
