Apple’s new 11-inch iPad (A16) just hit the best Amazon price ever from $278 shipped

Reg. $349/From $278

Okay, so the yellow color might not have been on the top of your list, but we are talking about a brand-new, current-generation iPad at under $280 here. Regularly $350, Apple upgraded its entry-level iPad offering with the new 11-inch iPad (A16) this year and you can now land one at Amazon starting from $277.78 shipped. 

Most of the colors, or perhaps the more sought-after blue and silver variants are still sitting at the $299 Amazon low. But the yellow variant has now dropped to just under $278 while the pink variant has fallen to $288.39 shipped – its best price to date at Amazon. I don’t particularly mind the yellow paint job here, but if you’re looking for the lowest possible price to bring home Apple’s new tablet for you and the family, you might want to just cover it with a case anyway. 

Either way, we are heading into Mother’s Day weekend with the best prices we have tracked to date at Amazon on Apple’s most affordable casual tablet experience. The non-Apple Intelligence supporting A16 model isn’t for everyone, but we have recently detailed the value proposition between it and the iPad mini (A17 Pro), which is also starting down at $399 lows, right here, and you’ll find even more iPad deals below:
