Why You Can Trust CNET Don't Sleep on This $321 iPad Deal for Fourth of July
Amazon now has Apple's iPad for just $321. Grab yours now while you still can.
Upgrading your aging tablet just got cheaper with Apple's always-popular iPad now available at a discount this Fourth of July week. The iPad is among the most popular tablets around, but it can also be one of the most expensive, even at the lower end of the lineup. Thankfully, the 64GB 10th-gen iPad is currently down to $321 on Amazon. This price isn't all that far off the lowest ever $300 asking price, but we don't know how long it will remain available, so consider acting now if you want to be sure of taking advantage of this deal.
Apple recently slashed the price of its 10th-gen iPad following the debut of the new iPad Air and iPad Pro, and now Amazon has shrunk it even further. Despite being the more affordable model in the lineup, this iPad offers pretty much everything the typical tablet user would want in a tablet.

There are a number of improvements over its predecessor, including a larger 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, an improved 12-megapixel camera, better speakers and the A14 Bionic chip for faster performance. It's also swapped in USB-C. This model comes with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, as well as Center Stage, which makes it excellent for video calling.
It's worth noting that this iPad is not compatible with the Apple Pencil 2 or the new Apple Pencil Pro, so you'll have to use the first-gen model and a USB-C dongle or grab the USB-C Pencil, both of which are sold separately. That said, our main gripe with this iPad was the cost over the older (but still functional) ninth-gen model -- but this price cut solves that problem.
