Is the iPad 9 still worth buying?

Yes for basic use. The A13 chip still handles games, streaming, video calls and school apps well, and iPadOS updates keep coming. If you need USB-C or more storage, a newer iPad is the better fit.

How does it compare with the iPad 10?

The iPad 10 has a larger 10.9-inch screen, USB-C and a newer chip, but costs more. The iPad 9 keeps the headphone jack and Lightning port and is the simpler, cheaper pick for kids.

Is 64GB enough for a child?

It is fine for streaming and school apps, but games and downloaded videos fill it quickly. There is no memory card slot, so plan on cloud storage or deleting content.

Does it work with the Apple Pencil?

It works with the first-generation Apple Pencil, which charges through the Lightning port. The newer USB-C Pencil does not work with this model.

What is included in the kids bundle?

The bundle pairs the 10.2-inch iPad 9 in 64GB Wi-Fi with kid-focused extras such as a protective case. Check the bundle contents for the exact accessories included.

Does it have a headphone jack?

Yes. The iPad 9 has a 3.5mm headphone jack, which is handy for kids using wired headphones.

Our take on the Apple iPad 9 Kids Bundle 64GB Wi-Fi 10.2

This is Apple's 9th-generation iPad, a 10.2-inch tablet with the A13 Bionic chip and 64GB of storage, packaged as a kids bundle. The tablet itself is the same well-known iPad 9 that has sold in huge numbers: a bright 10.2-inch Retina display, all-day battery life, a headphone jack and a front camera that supports Center Stage. It suits families who want a durable, easy-to-use tablet for schoolwork, video and games, and it holds up well against budget Android tablets on app quality and long-term software support. The trade-offs are the older design with a Lightning port and a non-laminated screen, and 64GB fills up quickly with games and downloaded video.
