The iPad comes in a variety of sizes and price points. A brand new iPad can cost as little as $329 for a regular iPad and as much as $1,700 for the 12.9-inch iPad Pro. This variety puts an iPad model within reach of almost any budget, and if you consider used or refurbished units, the price can be even lower.

iPad Buying Guide (2024) – Don't Waste Your Money!

The first question you need to ask yourself is how much do you want to spend on an iPad? Generally speaking, the more you spend, the more storage, screen size, and processing power you’ll get.

Apple introduced an iPad with a massive 12.9-inch display to bridge the gap between tablets and laptops. The iPad Pro is, most definitely, a tablet with PC-like processing power. The A12Z chip is about as powerful as a mid-range laptop, and with 4GB of RAM for apps, coupled with that expansive display, it’s a multitasking beast. It could also be a great family iPad, with a screen that won’t make you miss your HDTV while you’re streaming to it. The iPad Pro starts at $999 and goes up to $1,700 for the 1TB model with Wi-Fi + Cellular.

Just as powerful as the 12.9-inch Pro with a few features that even surpass it, the 11-inch iPad Pro is great for those who want a Pro-level iPad but don’t want to spend as much as a more expensive laptop. It has a 12-megapixel rear-facing camera that rivals your smartphone, and it has a display that can display a wider range of colors than previous iPads. The base model with 64GB of storage and Wi-Fi starts at $799.
