The iPad 10.9 (2022) is available for pre-order now, and starts shipping on October 26. It's also worth noting that the iPad 10.9 (2022) model we tested has 256GB of storage and includes 5G support (which we love), and that model will cost you $749 / £859 / AU$1,249. We're not saying the iPad isn't worth the price, but right now these increases just seem a bit tone-deaf.

But here's Apple, flipping the design script, adding capabilities, and asking for a lot more money at a time when many of us have less to spend. Times have changed, and we now live in a world where Amazon occasionally sells its 7-inch Fire tablets for $49.

That game-changing device cost $499, which at the time seemed like a bargain for such an innovative, big-screened portable device. If that price feels familiar, it might be because it's something like a callback to the original iPad that Steve Jobs unveiled on April 3, 2010. Now, though, the base iPad (think iPad for everyone) starts at $449 / £499 / AU$749. When TechRadar reviewed the smaller-screened and less-powerful iPad 9th generation, it cost just $329 / £319 / AU$499, which was exciting because in the US we were getting so close to the $299 threshold. The question will be, do you choose this iPad, or spend at least an extra $100 for the very similar iPad Air 5th gen? That probably depends on how important weight, camera placement, performance ( M1 chip), and next-gen Pencil support are to you. And the price increase elsewhere is positively eye-watering: from £319 to £499 in the UK, and from AU$499 to AU$749 in Australia.ĭespite the price, and the Pencil issue, we love this tablet for its power, versatility, and utility.

It's also the first base iPad to feature 5G connectivity, but you'll pay for that, too, with a starting price of $599.

The trade-off for things like the better camera setup, the new design, and an upgrade from the aging A13 Bionic CPU to the A14 Bionic is a roughly $120 price hike to $449 in the US, which is getting quite close to the original iPad's $499 price tag.

Apple has also made the welcome decision to move the front camera from one of the short edges to the dead center of the bezel on one of the long sides – it's a game-changer for video calls, and we guarantee that iPad Pro 2022 and Air users will be jealous. The rear camera is better than the one on last year’s model, and there’s the same high-quality, 12MP Ultrawide FaceTime camera on the front. We're not using the Apple Pencil (Second Generation) here because it's not supported, and this is a frustration for a number of reasons which we'll enumerate later just know that Apple could have done better in this regard.Īpple's base iPad has, in recent years, been on the receiving end of the company's 'good enough' camera strategy and this latest iPad is no different. The Pencil, however, is also the source of most of our issues with the iPad 10.9 (2022).
