Walmart has the 4th Generation Apple 10.9″ iPad Air Wi-Fi 256GB Tablet in a few colors to choose from for $499 (regularly $599) with Free Shipping for a limited time. This is very comparable to the new 10th gen iPad that Apple just release for $499. I think this model could be a better since it supports the second generation Apple Pencil.

The iPad Air 4th gen features a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display and True Tone, A14 Bionic chip, Touch ID built into the power button, 12MP back camera, 7MP FaceTime HD front camera, USB-C port, and support for the Apple Pencil (2nd generation).
