The 10th gen 64GB is $250 at Costco all month, get Best Buy to price match to $250 and use the Amex offer for $25 off $250+ and you are looking at $225+tax(on $250) for a generation newer, might be worth it for some.

The Amex offer for Best Buy is gone from added offers. Even if you added a while ago they took it away.

That’s a lie. I haven’t used it and it’s still showing in added offers.

Still showing for me, I guess it’s YMMV.

Would bite when its 256GB. Even at $259, 256gb would be a great deal.

I bought one from Wally at $224 and received in mail last week. I phoned CS today and asked for a $25 refund due to price change at Target. She quickly agreed to give me a $25 coupon off a $45 purchase. Happy with that since I bought from WM during tax free week so I saved an additional $16 or so.
Worth a call if you bought too early like me.

i just had BB price match from $229 down to $199 and it was done automatically and saw the refund on my CC within 2 hours…; I wouldn’t have accepted a coupon but demanded a refund…

Do you mean you get price match from Walmart.com?

Apple is going to stop supporting this iPad 9th Generation soon so everyone has to dump it quick. Lol…

They just discontinued this model a few months ago, but they’re still supporting the old 6th gen with A10 chip from 2018 with iOS 17, so this 9th gen with A13 should probably get at least 3 more years of support, maybe more.

A13 is also in the iPhone 11 and iPhone SE 2nd gen and those are also getting iOS 18 and will be supported a while longer so this should be fairly safe to purchase.

Precisely. Even older iPads make great reading/media and browsing devices. Maybe some light games too. This is going out because it’s the last model with a lightning cable. The newer ones are USB C

My kid is still using my iPad Air 2, purchased in 2016. The battery life sucks and it’s running pretty slowly but it works for a four year old. I’m considering replacing it with one of the 9th gen ones so that I can get her her own Apple ID, but it’s hard to justify when this one still does work.
