It was originally announced in 2010, three years after the first iPhone was introduced. With a 9.7-inch screen and with iPhone OS 3.2 the iPad was a success, hitting 1 million tablets sold in over three months, half the time the first iPhone took to reach this mark.</p> <div id="div-gpt-ad-author-ad-711517" class="th762b5258 th8c4394d3" data-author="seth-guide" data-post-id="711517" data-unit="/1049447/Author" data-placement="content"></div><p>Steve Jobs then unveiled the iPad 2 in March of 2011. About 33% thinner than its predecessor and 15% lighter, the second generation used the A5 chip, twice as faster as its predecessor. The iPad 2 also introduced front and back cameras that supported FaceTime video calls.</p> <p>The successor of the iPad 2 wasn’t a success at all. The third generation was introduced in March of 2012 with a Retina display and the A5X processor. The problem with this tablet it was too heavy and the battery didn’t last long enough. In October of the same year, Apple announced the fourth generation with the A6X processor, HD FaceTime camera, improved LTE capabilities, and the Lightning connector.</p> <p>At this October event, Apple also introduced <a href="https://9to5mac.com/guides/ipad-mini/">the first iPad mini</a>. In 2013, Apple went with the first iPad Air and the iPad mini 2. In 2015, the company introduced <a href="https://9to5mac.com/guides/ipad-pro/">the first Pro model</a>, with two different sizes.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image wp-block-image--obfuscated"><img src="https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/client-mu-plugins/9to5-core/includes/obfuscate-images/images/9to5mac-default.jpg" alt="Site default logo image" loading="lazy" /></figure> <p>In March of 2017, Apple announced the fifth-generation iPad with the A9 processor. It was a budget option compared to the other tablets. It was in 2018 that the company brought expressive news to the base iPad line. The sixth-generation had the A10 Fusion processor and fully supports the first-generation Apple Pencil.</p> <p>A year later, the seventh generation was announced with a larger 10.2-inch display and support for the Smart Keyboard as well. It retained most of the specs of the previous model.</p> <p>In September of 2020, the eighth generation was introduced alongside the fourth-generation iPad Air model. The eighth generation received an upgraded processor, now with the A12 Bionic, while keeping the same storage options: 32GB and 128GB.</p> <p>In September of 2021, the ninth generation was introduced alongside a redesigned iPad mini. This iPad now features the A13 Bionic processor, True Tone support, and new storage options: 64GB and 256GB while keeping the same price.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-ipad-9-specs">iPad 9 Specs</h2> <figure class="wp-block-image wp-block-image--obfuscated"><img src="https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/client-mu-plugins/9to5-core/includes/obfuscate-images/images/9to5mac-default.jpg" alt="Site default logo image" loading="lazy" /></figure> <p>The ninth-generation iPad launched in September of 2021. Available in two colors, Silver and Space Gray, this tablet is made of 100% recyclable aluminum, and supports the first-generation Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard.</p> <p>With thinner bezels, the product comes with a 10.2-inch Retina display with a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating, and True Tone support for the first time, which adjusts screen content to the color temperature of a room.</p> <p>This tablet uses the A13 Bionic chip, the same available on the iPhone 11, 11 Pro, and 11 Pro Max. It has an “all-day” battery with up to 10 hours of surfing the web on Wi-Fi or watching videos.</p> <p>The iPad also comes in 64GB and 256GB storage options and Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi + Cellular versions.</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-revamped-cameras">Revamped cameras</h3> <figure class="wp-block-image wp-block-image--obfuscated"><img src="https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/client-mu-plugins/9to5-core/includes/obfuscate-images/images/9to5mac-default.jpg" alt="Site default logo image" loading="lazy" /></figure> <p>For the first time, this iPad shares the same FaceTime camera as the <a href="https://amzn.to/34t95Jk" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">M1 iPad Pro</a> with the Center Stage experience. With a new 12MP Ultra Wide front camera and Neural Engine, users can enjoy even more engaging video calls.</p> <p>As users move around, Center Stage automatically pans the camera to keep them in view. When others join in, the camera detects them too, and smoothly zooms out to include them in the conversation. Center Stage makes video calls more natural in FaceTime as well as third-party video-calling apps.</p> <p>Its main camera is the same: 8MP, f/2.4 aperture, and digital zoom up to 5x.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-ipados-15">iPadOS 15</h2> <figure class="wp-block-image wp-block-image--obfuscated"><img src="https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/client-mu-plugins/9to5-core/includes/obfuscate-images/images/9to5mac-default.jpg" alt="Site default logo image" loading="lazy" /></figure> <p>The ninth-generation iPad comes with the iPadOS 15. Previewed during the WWDC21 keynote, the new operating system brings a redesigned Home Screen with widgets and App Library support.</p> <p>On iPadOS 15, FaceTime group calls can finally appear in a grid, so it’s easier to see everyone. It’s also possible to share your screen, listen to Apple Music songs together, or watch Apple TV+, HBO Max, Disney+, and others while in a call.</p> <p>In the productivity section, Apple, unfortunately, didn’t bring all the features pro users wanted to take full advantage of their new M1 iPad Pro, even though Apple made it easier to rely on multitasking features.</p> <p>There’s a new multitasking menu on the top of the screen. When you click there, it’s possible to see what configurations you can use on Split View or just go to Slide Over with just a tap.</p> <p>The experience with an external keyboard allows users to get more done with all-new keyboard shortcuts and a redesign of the menu bar.</p> <p>With the Quick Note feature, users can use the Apple Pencil to add a quick note. They just need to slide the pencil through the bottom right corner to the center of the screen and start writing.</p> <p>iPadOS 15 launched on September 20. <a href="https://9to5mac.com/guides/ipados-15/">Learn more about it here</a>.</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-ipados-15-1-features">iPadOS 15.1 features</h3> <p>One month after releasing iPadOS 15, <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2021/10/26/ios-15-1-now-available-heres-why-you-should-update/">Apple released iPadOS 15.1</a> More notable, the company finally brought SharePlay support for the iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV.

When Apple introduced its <a href="https://amzn.to/4l1y3FH">Magic Keyboard for the iPad</a>, I was in awe of its design and function, which transformed the iPad into a full-on computer experience. However, at $350, it is more expensive than a new <a href="https://amzn.to/4j5Ld2H">iPad 11th-gen</a>. So, I’m always looking for cheaper alternatives and finally found a <a href="https://amzn.to/4l1y3FH">Magic Keyboard</a> and <a href="https://amzn.to/43Zl9ly">Apple Pencil </a>alternative that has exceeded my expectations.

Although, with four main models—the iPad (11th Gen), iPad Mini 7, M3 iPad Air, and M4 iPad Pro—there is still plenty of nuance to understand to make sure you make the right choice. But the reality is that all iPads handle about 90% of the same tasks, such as web browsing, note-taking, streaming, app ecosystem, and creative and professional work, and they all even have the same design language. It’s that final 10%—the extra power, display technology, better efficiencies, and accessories—that makes the difference.</p> <p>This guide will break down each iPad’s strengths, who it’s best for, and

The iPad now comes with an A16 chip, and twice the storage, for the same $349 price. </p> <p>That means Apple’s cheapest iPad now starts at 128 GB storage, with 256 GB and an all-new 512 GB size as upgrade options. With a faster chip and twice the storage, the new iPad is even better value for money than the <a href="https://amzn.to/4kilzJD">prior 10th generation iPad</a>.</p> <a data-layer-pagetype="post"

href="https://amzn.to/4h7T1R4">iPad</a> Pro is my main computer. Yes, I have a Mac Mini, but when it comes to getting actual work done, I always gravitate towards my <a href="https://amzn.to/4h7T1R4">iPad</a> (I am currently writing this on my iPad).
