Introducing the Affordable iPad: The Unlikely AI Hurdle in Apple’s Pocket-Friendly Wonder

Key Points

• Apple’s 10th-gen iPad lacks support for Apple Intelligence, a feature available on most Macs and iPads except for the iPhone.
• The iPad 10 does not have the recommended minimum specification of 8GB RAM or more to run Apple Intelligence.
• Whether to buy the iPad 10 without Apple Intelligence depends on how crucial this feature is for each user’s experience.

In the latest iPhone and iPad ecosystem updates, Apple’s 10th-gen iPad is gaining attention due to its striking display and price of $299. This affordability might entice buyers to upgrade their older iPad or explore a larger tablet size for a great value. Despite these appealing attributes, a glaring absence on the new iPad warrants a second glance – the absence of Apple Intelligence support.

To recall, Apple Intelligence has become the default for recent Apple hardware. From the update to the iPad mini, only the new 10th-gen iPad currently misses out on this feature, and its sole limitation lies within 8GB RAM or less, the lowest specified memory that supports Apple Intelligence.

With no surprises here, as it doesn’t change iPhone functionality dramatically for iPhones with fewer storage and Apple Intelligence. Apple hasn’t specified exactly which memory floor this RAM target might rise beyond but notes RAM growth may cause minor system sluggishness when task switching or, indeed, to support image creation features.

Still, buying this latest device and choosing other compatible software from iOS without relying too much upon multi-functional aspects – we encourage everyone considering using either software platforms while avoiding memory resource bottlenecks when upgrading new storage.
