Verdict

The 2025 Apple iPad (11th Gen) features an 11-inch Liquid Retina display with a resolution of 2360 x 1640, powered by the A16 Bionic chip and 6GB of RAM. This configuration includes 256GB of internal storage, a landscape 12MP ultra-wide front camera with Center Stage, and a 12MP rear camera capable of 4K video recording. Main pros include its improved multitasking performance due to the RAM upgrade, excellent battery life of up to 10 hours, and modern connectivity with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3. However, key cons include the lack of support for Apple Intelligence features, a display capped at a 60Hz refresh rate, and the absence of a laminated screen and anti-reflective coating.
