It’s not really the second-best price. It was available at 249 on black Friday and then 259 on cyber Monday.

No it doesn't. I have an iPad 9 now, which has the A13 so just one year older CPU than this. And it's horrible now, terribly laggy. Have to restart if frequently as it cannot really handle iPadOS 18, keyboard is almost impossible to use in some apps/websites due to extreme lag.
Everything reloads all the time and it takes forever to do most things. Extremely frustrating.
My wife has an iPad 9 that exhibits none of this behavior. It sounds like yours has more issues than a (relatively) old processor.

I have the tenth gen, though with 256GB. Best portable media consumption device I’ve ever had. Also perfect for business travel, where I typically need access only to email and my employer’s web-based CRM. And that means I don’t need to lug the large and heavy Surface Pro laptop they gave me, which itself can convert to the world’s heaviest, least ergonomic tablet.

Apple nailed it with the iPad. It fits exactly where Jobs said it would in the product and usage line. And this is a great deal for one.

Thought about getting an iPad for my parents, so it's a bit unfortunate that there was no update for the holiday season on this model. I can't get past buying the A14 in late 2024 when they're on iPhone 15 now...

Probably just me and they most likely wouldn't notice, but can't bite on the deal ?

Better prices were available last week. But for a basic iPad, at $279, it is still a good buy. It won't be getting Apple Intelligence, but it should be getting software updates for many years.
