What is a good budget iPad compatible with an Apple Pencil? I would prefer a pencil that snaps onto the side but I don’t know if there are any cheap iPads that have that method of charging.

or just that it sticks?

Preferably

#

Give me a sec, but i think this one does support magnets and charging

And it's less than 300 on Amazon rn

#

Ah

#

It is still a great option on a super tight budget

#

I mean it’s fine if it’s just magnets

pseudo laurel
#

The iPad mini is the cheapest iPad thay would allow you to charge on the side

but it's not as cheap as the iPad 10th Gen

#

That and the USB c pencil will only be smth like 350$

#

Isnt that the newest one?

glossy prairie
#

Yes

#

Newest base model

#

And it's also only 64 gb :(

pseudo laurel
#

The iPad mini is 128GB i think

glossy prairie
#

So it you can spend some more, a mini might be nice

#

Yeah

#

It just depends on your budget for the best option

pseudo laurel
#

Here's the current price on Amazon

#

Ok

pseudo laurel
#

#

pseudo laurel
#

Alrighty

You just need to make sure you get the correct pencil

#

The one that's USB c or wireless charging depending on which ipad you get

pseudo laurel
#

iPad mini: Apple Pencil Pro

#

iPad 10: USB-C Apple Pencil

glossy prairie
#

Or if it's the new "pencil pro" but I doubt you'd spend that much on the newest ipad pro to get it

#

Oh

pseudo laurel
#

The new Pencil Pro runs on the iPad mini, iPad Air, and iPad Pro

glossy prairie
#

Does the mini support the pro pencil?

pseudo laurel
#

Yes

glossy prairie
#

Ooooo

#

That's sick

pseudo laurel
#

I think that's the only one it supports too

glossy prairie
#

Honestly yeah, that would be my recommendation aswell

pseudo laurel

#

For decent specs and performance and everything, but not being crazy expensive

pseudo laurel
#

Exactly

#

It has the A17 Pro too, so in terms of performance it's covered

glossy prairie
#

And 64gb of storage is kinda ass nowadays

pseudo laurel
#

Here is the iPad 10

#

But if you use it just for drawing and online content consumption (YouTube, Netflix) it will get you by in a pinch

#

Also I think you get a much better screen on the mini

It’ll take some extra work to afford it but it’ll probably happen

glossy prairie
#

Hell yeah!

waxen otter
#

pseudo laurel
#
