"All of which sounds great, but there is a catch. If you were expecting the price of this new iPad to be in line with its predecessor, which costs $329/£369, you’re going to be disappointed. The entry-level 64GB WiFI model will sell for $449/£499 which, we’re sure we don’t need to point out, is considerably more.
"Add to this the fact that the ninth-gen iPad will remain on sale and this doesn’t really feel like a new entry-level Apple tablet at all. In fact, it appears to have more in common with the iPad Air, which starts at $599/£669, the biggest difference being that it doesn’t have that machine’s M1 processor."
A 36% price increase is pretty substantial.
