Conclusion:
The most worthwhile variant is 64 GB.
iPad 10th gen is a capable device, especially for students. It’s good for productivity, light gaming, making presentations, etc.
iPad 64GB with Apple pencil (1st Gen) is good for taking notes, and for an artist, and is a very good combination. (Note:-If you are a professional artist, then go for the iPad Air because the iPad 10th gen has 4GB of RAM)
If you are a hardcore gamer or your work needs a lot of space/memory, better look for the iPad Air.
Magic Keyboard is something I won’t recommend. It costs more, and alternative options have better feedback, which is way cheaper.
And the only competition the iPad 10 gen has is with Samsung’s Tab S9 FE, which comes with an S-Pen included within the box and has 6/128 GB.
I’d be happy to answer any questions you have regarding iPad 10…
