In 2018, we saw the introduction of three new iPads — the 6th generation iPad, which was a refresh of the $330 “budget” model now made to support the Apple Pencil, and two new additions to the iPad Pro line, with a new design and Face ID.

And I can’t help but feel that now is the best time to actually buy an older model iPad. Let me explain.

The iPad Air 2 is better value than the $330 iPad (2018)
Well, that's a weird thing to say, considering the two devices are 4 years apart. But, believe it or not, the good old Air 2 still has the chops!
