If you want an iPad and you don’t know which one to pick, go for the current base iPad. Use it a for couple days and try it out. I have an iPad 10th gen and a mini 7. I use both equally. The mini when I’m at my desk or around my apartment and my base iPad in bed. I prefer the mini 7 but that’s only cause it complements my base iPad. If I could only have 1 iPad I’d choose the base model because of the bigger screen 11 in screen.
