Starting today, Amazon has significantly reduced the price of the latest 2025 11th generation Apple iPad (A16) tablet. Now available in four vibrant colors—Blue, Yellow, Pink, and Silver—each model comes with 128GB of storage and Wi-Fi connectivity, and is priced at just $299 after a $50 discount. This marks the lowest price we've seen for the newest iPad model since its launch earlier this year, making it an exceptional Mother's Day gift, which falls on May 11. Such a substantial discount on a recently released iPad is rare, and we anticipate this sale won't last long—likely just a couple of days.
Update: Last week, the price of these iPads dropped from $349 to $319. This week, it has further decreased to $299. Previously, only the Blue and Yellow models were on sale, but now all four colors are available at this discounted rate.

Remarkably, the launch price of $349 is lower than the $399 starting price of the previous generation.
