The best iPad for most people is the iPad Air (2020). Released in 2020, it offers a sharp 11-inch screen, buckets of power, and some excellent high-tech features, all in a super-sleek design. Our full iPad Air review reveals exactly why we like it so much.
There are good reasons to choose the other models too, of course. The iPad Pro offers an even higher-quality screen with the option of a 13-inch display as well as an 11-inch model, a 120Hz refresh rate on the screen, and a LIDAR 3D sensor on the back, plus bigger storage capacity options. Here's our full iPad Pro 12.9-inch (2021) review.
The cheap iPad is a great value option – it doesn't have the premium build and latest-gen processor that the iPad Air has, but it has a great screen, plenty of speed, and is still impeccably made. Here's our iPad 10.2-inch (9th Gen) review for more.
The iPad mini is a fantastic small media and gaming device, or a portable note-taking/drawing machine. Here's our full iPad mini (6th Gen) review.
