Want a new iPad (2020), no need to wait for Amazon Prime Day. Yes, Amazon has released Apple's new iPad a week after its release.

Amazon is currently offering the Apple iPad 2020 for $299. That's a $30 discount and the first price drop for a new Apple tablet. It is also the most affordable iPad we have seen this month. If you need more storage, Amazon also has the iPad 2020 (128 GB) tablet priced at $395. This is $34 off and is also the first deal we saw for this tablet.

The Editor's Choice iPad 2020 uses Apple's new A12 Bionic CPU. According to Apple, this new CPU offers 40% faster CPU performance than the previous model. It also promises twice as fast graphics. On Geekbench 5, which measures overall performance, the iPad 2020 scored 2,685 points, a significant jump from the 2019 model's 1,429 points.

In our iPad 2020 review, the new iPad didn't flinch when playing Mortal Kombat, editing in Pixelmator, or bike racing in Sayonara Wild Hearts. But what impressed us most was the battery life of the new iPad. Apple rates it at 12 hours, but we recorded a battery life of 12 hours and 57 minutes, beating the 2019 iPad's 11 minutes and 58 seconds.

Overall, the new 2020 iPad is an excellent tablet and an even better value for all.
