Additionally: it has plenty of storage for all your photos, movies or candy crush data. iPad pricing starts at $299.

9.7 or 12.9-inch iPad Pro: The Student

If you are looking to use iPad for school as your primary computer, we suggest iPad pro. It comes with the fastest processing speeds, larger screens (in the 12.9-inch model) and the ability to work with external devices such as Apple Pencil®. The iPad pro can also attach to an external keyboard for typing out notes or writing term papers. This is a great option for on-the-go students who need a lightweight portable device with all the processing power of a laptop. 9.7-inch models start at $555 and 12.9-inch models start at $845.

iPad Mini 4® has been updated to offer more storage for the same price. 128GB models now start at $365.
