Whether you’re reading the latest HuffPost article or looking through family photos, sometimes scrolling on your phone just doesn’t cut it. If you’ve been looking for a new device that’s easy to use, actually practical and won’t totally break the bank, you can snag a 2021 Apple 10.2-inch iPad from Walmart for just $249 — a whole 25% off its regular price.
This 9th generation model runs on Wi-Fi, has a full 10 hours of battery life, Apple pencil and smart keyboard capabilities and an ultra-wide front-facing camera with Apple’s “center stage” tech that automatically adjusts the camera to your face as you move around on FaceTime.
Its 10.2-inch retina display and user-friendly operation is supported by an A13 bionic chip that gives you the graphics performance you need for playing games, watching videos or just looking through social media.
Both 64 and 256 GB storage options are currently on sale.
This device uses lighting ports, so it’s likely you can use your existing iPhone charger with it, as well as your headphones. Best of all, it weighs just over a pound, making it easy to carry and hold whether you’re on the go or lounging on the couch.
If you’re looking to play games, take virtual notes, video chat family or just surf the web, this handy device will help you do it all. Check out these promising reviews from Walmart.com:
