Which iPad should you buy? 2025 iPad guide

You’re looking for a new iPad, but you’re not really sure which one to get. Right now, there are four major iPads for 2025 each with similar yet distinct features, price points, and ideal use cases. So I put together a full guide breaking down the key differences, what each one offers, and who I personally think they’re best for. Whether you’re a student, creator, casual user, or productivity junkie, this should help you figure out which iPad actually makes sense for you.

Comment below if you have questions I’d love to help you choose the right one.
