Apple iPad 8th Generation, 10.2", Wi-Fi + 4G Cellular

Delightfully capable. Surprisingly affordable

The iPad 10.2" (8th Generation) combines tremendous capability with unmatched ease of use and versatility. With the powerful A12 Bionic chip, support for Apple Pencil and the Smart Keyboard (Sold Separately), and the amazing new things you can do with iPadOS 14, now there’s even more to love about iPad.

Difficult Tasks Made Easy

With iPad, getting work done is all hustle and no hassle. Edit a document while researching something on the web and making a FaceTime call to a colleague at the same time. Attach a full‑size Smart Keyboard for comfortable typing. And for tasks that require more precision, support for a trackpad or mouse complements the familiar Multi‑Touch experience of iPad.

The App Store

Let your curiosity run wild with iPad. The App Store is the best place to discover apps that let you get a leg up in geometry, learn a new language, and attend virtual classes. You can even use augmented reality to learn something exciting, like watching the history of spaceflight unfold in your living room or making characters from your favorite book literally leap off the page.

The A12 Bionic chip

It’s go time for gaming. The A12 Bionic chip delivers an amazing performance boost, so games are immersive, fluid, and incredibly detailed. A12 Bionic delivers incredible performance for things like photo editing and graphic-intensive games, and the second‑generation Neural Engine enables powerful features like handwriting recognition in Notes.

The Camera

No matter how you capture your photos and videos — with the 8MP back camera or the FaceTime HD camera on iPad, with an iPhone, or with a digital camera — you’ll love editing them on the large, immersive screen of your iPad. Take advantage of the machine learning capabilities to enhance your photos. Once you’ve got your perfect shot, share it to your social feeds or send it to friends with a tap.

10.2" Retina display

With incredible detail and vivid colors, the gorgeous Retina display is perfect for watching a movie, working on a project, and drawing your next masterpiece. The 10.2" Retina display offers you a stunning view and smooth touch; wherever you’re scrolling down the pages or playing the most intensive games or watching videos it will always feel smooth, fast, responsive and immersive.

Cinema-like experience

Everything you watch on iPad looks and sounds awesome, thanks to the 10.2‑inch Retina display and stereo system. With the Apple TV app, you’ll have access to popular streaming services, must‑watch shows, and blockbuster movies.

iPadOS Anything You Can Do, You Can Do It Better

iPadOS delivers a distinct experience that enhances the unique capabilities of iPad. New note‑taking features make handwriting as powerful as typed text, shape recognition makes your drawings more precise, and now you can handwrite in any text field with Scribble. iPadOS dramatically enhances the note-taking experience on iPad. Apps are more streamlined and new compact designs for Siri, search and calls make iPad even more capable and simple to use.

Augmented reality

The powerful A12 Bionic chip combined with advanced sensors and cameras makes for incredible AR experiences on iPad. The large Retina display invites you into immersive AR environments that can transform the way you play, shop, and learn.

Easy portability

With a thin and light design and fast Wi‑Fi and Gigabit‑class LTE, iPad is designed to go where your life goes. So you can browse the web, download books, and more, wherever you are. And with up to 10 hours of battery life, you can do it all on a single charge. It does pretty much everything but carry itself.

Combining Efficiency and Design

iPad is built to be durable so you have peace of mind knowing you can take it anywhere you go. And now the enclosure is made from 100 percent recycled aluminum. Thanks to the efficiency of the A12 Bionic chip, you can expect up to 10 hours of battery life to keep you going through the day.
