A “little powerhouse”, the Apple iPad Mini is ideal if you need a more portable iPad. It has a smaller 8.3-inch screen but that makes it the perfect middle ground between your phone and a laptop. Performance is pretty good from the A15 Bionic processor which is the same as the one on the iPhone 13. There’s support for the Apple Pencil too making it an ideal tablet for sketching out designs or taking notes. If you want a smaller tablet, this is perfect. Previous iPad Minis weren’t so great performance wise and had a smaller display, but the 6th generation model fixes that.

How we chose the best iPad deals

The Apple iPad is generally regarded as one of the most well known tablet lineups on the market. That recognizability translates into popularity, and with so many people intent on getting their hands on an iPad, significant iPad deals can be difficult to track down. So one of the main factors we’re looking for when we’re selecting the day’s best iPad deals is simply that: availability. If there’s an iPad model seeing a discount it’s likely to be one of the best iPad deals by default.

Several models are regulars among the best iPad deals. These include the Apple iPad (9th Gen), Apple iPad (10th Gen), and the Apple iPad Mini. These iPads have been around for awhile and are well known among entry level tablet shoppers. Apple has designed these tablets to reach a broad audience and this is reflected in both their regular pricing and the deals that are typically available.

And while it’s the more entry level iPads that are almost always guaranteed to see a discount, larger discounts can be found on higher end models. Several generations of the Apple iPad Air pretty regularly see discounts of $50 or more, and when you get into higher spec’d models you can even find savings in the hundreds of dollars. Every now and then you’ll find an iPad Pro model among our selections for the best iPad deals as well.

iPad deals and availability tend to bounce around from one retailer to another so be sure to check in here often for the day’s best iPad deals.

As seen on desktop, the bookmarks bar appears below the omnibox, spanning the full width of the screen and showcasing favicons alongside site names, while a right-facing chevron handles overflow. Long-pressing a bookmark reveals its full URL.
