Our take on the Apple 10.9-inch iPad (10th Gen) 256GB

The 10th-generation iPad is Apple's mainstream tablet, rebuilt around a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina screen, the A14 Bionic chip and a flat-edge design that finally drops the old Lightning port for USB-C. It moves the front camera to the landscape edge with Center Stage, so video calls keep you framed, and it works with the newer USB-C Apple Pencil and the Magic Keyboard Folio. It sits below the iPad Air, which adds the M-series chip, a laminated display and support for the second-generation Apple Pencil. Reviewers call it the easiest iPad to recommend for everyday use, while noting the older chip and non-laminated screen keep it a step behind the Air.

Questions and answers

Is the 10th-gen iPad worth it over the iPad Air?
For browsing, streaming, notes and video calls, yes. The Air adds a faster M-series chip, a laminated anti-reflective display and second-generation Apple Pencil support, which matter for drawing and heavy multitasking.
Does it work with the Apple Pencil?
It works only with the USB-C Apple Pencil, which attaches magnetically to charge. The first- and second-generation Pencils do not pair with it.
How long does the battery last?
Apple rates it at up to 10 hours of web browsing or video. Owners typically report a full day of mixed use.
Is the screen good for drawing?
It is fine for sketching and note-taking, but the non-laminated display leaves a small gap between pencil tip and image, and artists usually prefer the Air or Pro.
What is in the box?
The iPad, a USB-C charging cable and a 20W USB-C power adapter. The Apple Pencil and keyboard are sold separately.
Can it replace a laptop?
For light work with the Magic Keyboard Folio, yes. Demanding desktop apps and heavy multitasking are better served by a Mac or the iPad Air.
