Based on your requirements, ipad will do. However for battery consumption, very subjective. My kids use Ipad Air 4, I told them don't let it fall below 40%. Just charge as when not use and can estimate if continue use may fall below 40%.

Is the iPad good enough to sustain for long hours of online classes? Worry it would overheat or degrade the battery too soon.

Hesitating in between a MacBook or iPad as it will only serves my kid online classes, browsing, with some netflix n drama session during the night.

Yes next week Apple event will announce then you need to trace from time to time any old stock Ipad 8 clearance or may already started now or over. I didn't traced. Usually sales happened before announced. Very limited stock.

Trying to buy a Apple Smart Cover for 8th Gen iPad.

Apple website only shows 9th and 7th gen covers. Are these the same for 8th gen iPad ?
