The sales of Apple's base-model iPads have grown significantly since the introduction of the 10th-generation model.
In 2023, the entry-level iPad represented 30% of all iPad sales, rising from 21% in the previous year.
The iPad mini represents 9% of the market share, followed by the iPad Air with 15% and the base model and iPad Pro versions with 38% each.
The absence of Apple Intelligence in the iPad 11 might be due to Apple's strategy to sell more expensive iPad Pro models and maintain the value of AI features.
