It may seem like Black Friday deals are in the distant future, but actually there are some awesome early Black Friday deals already happening. Because there are so many, we’ve spent the time to focus on some key areas. The focus here is iPad deals. There are some big discounts on highly sought after tablets. Read on and we’ll take you through the best iPad deals along with some insight into what to consider when buying one. Different iPads appeal to different people, so there’s something for everyone here.
While you’re loving all things Apple, don’t forget to check out the early Black Friday Apple Watch deals too.
Apple iPad 9th generation — $329 $230 30% off
As our Apple iPad 9th generation review explains, the tablet has great battery life, amazing software support, and powerful internals for its time. It may be older tech now, but it’s still pretty powerful and well supported. It’s a good budget entry point to all things iPad.
Apple iPad 10th generation — $349 $319 9% off
If you want the latest iPad, check out the Apple iPad 10th generation. Our iPad 10 review explains it offers a great modern design and a “plenty powerful” processor, as well as strong battery life. Its larger display looks good too, so it’s a good budget all-rounder.
Apple iPad mini — $499 $350 30% off
This is my favorite iPad. It’s described as a “little powerhouse” in our Apple iPad mini review. It’s very portable, has a great screen, and it’s pretty powerful for the price. It’s perfect for settling into the couch and relaxing with some games.
Apple iPad Air 11-inch M2 — $599 $549 8% off
Described as “almost everything you want” in our Apple iPad Air review, this particular model has the faster M2 chip. It has a gorgeous Liquid Retina display, so it’s great for gaming as well as video editing, proving well as a laptop replacement.
Apple iPad Pro 11-inch M4 — $999 $899 10% off
How to choose an iPad on Black Friday
Now you’ve figured out which type of iPad is best for you, another major consideration is storage. You can’t upgrade the store of your iPad after purchase, so you want to get this right. Wherever possible, err on the side of more is more. Don’t go for the lowest amount of storage. Many people will be fine with one step up from that, but think carefully about this. If you plan on having many games installed, or you’re doing video editing on your iPad (which the iPad Air and Pro are particularly great at), you need more.
How we chose these iPad Prime Day deals
That combined knowledge means you can trust these deals. We update them regularly, so you always know where the best prices are and what’s worth buying. We won’t feature ageing iPads that aren’t really worth the investment, as even the best discount won’t make those tempting. Instead, we focus on the products that we would recommend to our friends and family, as well as the ones we’re tempted by ourselves.
