Apple iPad 9th Generation 10.2-inch 256GB with Cellular in Silver
Take the latest generation of Apple iPad with you wherever you go with wireless cellular capabilities. Gigabit-level LTE connection lets you go where your router can’t, whether that’s a long road trip in the car or a lengthy commute home on the train. You’ll be able to bring all the capabilities of this groundbreaking tablet and its accessories with you. Sink into creative projects like sketching and photo editing, or attach a Smart Keyboard to knock out a few emails (or a school project) along the way. The always-flexible iPad is perfect for anyone who needs a little screen time, from young students and work-from-home folks to creatives looking to bring projects to life. Do it all with the 2021 model’s newest innovations, like boosted speed thanks to the A13 Bionic chip (up to 20% faster than last generation’s).
Center Stage: Video Calls Made Magnificent
What truly sets the newest Apple iPad apart from its competitors isn’t battery life or speed, though. It’s the camera. The front-facing Ultra-Wide lens is optimized for video calling thanks to a new feature—Center Stage. When you make video calls, Center Stage works to keep you right in frame, whether that means zooming out or drifting to the side. And when others enter the field of vision, Center Stage expands to keep you both in view (and looking your best). This tablet is perfect for anyone who works from home, students who take classes online, or family members trying to keep up with each other. Make your next call one to remember.
