Apple kicked off the world of tablets with the launch of the original iPad and guess what, it was a 9.7-inch device and since then the 10-inch tablet form factor has been the ideal size for those looking for a tablet. While there are smaller 7 or even 8-inch tablets for those that need a compact experience, we have also seen 12 and 13-inch tablets for those that need a tablet to replace their laptop. But it's safe to say that if you are confused about the right size for a tablet, you can consider the 10-inch size to be ideal for content consumption on the go. Some of these tablets boast cellular connectivity, so this list also comprises 10-inch 4G tablets as well. As always, the price is also mentioned in this list, so you can consider this the place for updated 10-inch tablet price as well. While the iPad runs on iOS some of these 10-inch tablets run on Android making this the list for 10-inch Android tablets as well. So here is a look at the best 10-inch tablets in India. Although the prices of the products mentioned in the list given below have been updated as of 12th Aug 2022, the list itself may have changed since it was last published due to the launch of new products in the market since then.
Offering one of the best tablet experiences, we have the iPad Air sporting a 10.9-inch display. It offers a “pro” level iPad experience for those that don't want to spend as much. It is a step above the regular iPad for content consumption and a step below the ipad Pro for content creators. It runs on Apple’s A14 bionic chip and has a 10.9-inch retina display with a Wide colour (P3) gamut and the ability to hit 500 nits brightness. Unlike its Pro sibling, this one only comes with 2 speakers that are loud and clear. It has a single camera in the front and the back and also has the good old touch ID fingerprint reader for security and misses out on Face ID. It supports the Apple Pencil, for the artist in you. You can connect a keyboard dock to the iPad for a laptop-like experience and can also use a mouse/trackpad with it.

The power under the hood and performance of both variants is identical. The new iPad Pro’s are powered by Apple’s M1 chips - the same that is powering the Mac Mini, new MacBook Air and iMac.
