Apple iPad (A16, 11-inch)

Why it's our Upgrade pick

• Tom's Guide calls it the Apple tablet for most people and measured 11 hours 25 minutes of web browsing, longer than the iPad Air M3.
• The A16 chip handles demanding games at 60 fps in Tom's Guide's tests, and storage starts at 128 GB.
• Touch ID, a landscape front camera for video classes, and support for the USB-C Apple Pencil; ₹46,990 on Amazon.in against Apple India's ₹49,900.

Watch out: No Apple Intelligence, no Apple Pencil Pro or 2nd-gen Pencil support, and the 60 Hz screen is dim in bright sunlight.
