  • Our take on the Apple iPad 10 256GB

    The iPad 10 is Apple's entry-level tablet, now with a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, flat-edge design and USB-C instead of Lightning. It runs the A14 Bionic chip, which handles streaming, browsing, notes and light editing smoothly but trails the M-series iPads on heavy multitasking and long video exports. The landscape front camera is a real upgrade for video calls, and the 256GB model removes the storage anxiety of the base version. It suits students, families and casual users; anyone doing serious creative work should look at the iPad Air or Pro.

    Questions and answers

    Is the iPad 10 good enough for schoolwork?
    Yes. It handles documents, note apps, PDFs and video classes easily, and the 256GB model leaves room for offline videos and projects. Heavy design or video editing is better on an M-series iPad.
    Does it work with the Apple Pencil?
    It works with the USB-C Apple Pencil and with the first-generation Apple Pencil, but the latter needs a USB-C adapter to pair and charge. The second-generation Pencil does not fit.
    How does it compare with the iPad Air?
    The Air has an M-series chip, a laminated display and support for the second-generation Pencil. The iPad 10 is cheaper and fine for everyday use, but the Air is the better pick for creative work and longer use.
    Is 256GB worth it over the base model?
    If you keep lots of photos, games or downloaded video, yes. The extra storage avoids constant offloading, and iPad storage cannot be expanded later.
    What is in the box?
    The iPad, a USB-C charging cable and a power adapter. The Apple Pencil and keyboard cases are sold separately.
    Does it have a headphone jack?
    No. You need USB-C or Bluetooth headphones, or a USB-C adapter for wired ones.
    Where is the Apple iPad 10 256GB cheapest?
    At Staples, for $681.99, as of our latest check.
