iPad plummets to lowest-ever price for Black Friday

18:52 , Eva Waite-Taylor

The Independent’s senior tech critic Alex Lee has found a whopping deal on the iPad...

Apple iPad 11th-gen, 2024: Was £329, now £296, Amazon.co.uk

When Alex reviewed the iPad 11th gen, he was very impressed. “If you’re anything like me and just want a tablet for everyday streaming, browsing, a spot of gaming, calls, maybe even a bit of writing, then this is absolutely the one to get,” he wrote. The Air and Pro are brilliant iPads, but unless you actually need the power for creative tools, the regular iPad just delivers the best iPad experience for the lowest price. That’s why it’s the one he continues to recommend this, the iPad 11th-gen, over the others. And now it’s been reduced to its lowest ever price.

In his review, The Independent’s tech critic David Phelan praised the Kindle paperwhite for being “really exceptional”. A big upgrade on the original ereaders for only a modest price increase, he describes the paperwhite as “elegant, with the screen flush to the frame (the basic Kindle display is recessed behind the frame)”.

Jo Malone is giving away more than £60 of free gifts for Black Friday

18:23 , Alex Lee

Jo Malone has long been one of the beauty industry's favourite fragrance houses and its scents – from lime, basil and mandarin, to pomegranate noir – have landed themselves places in the perfume hall of fame. The brand is undoubtedly premium and rarely goes on offer, so when I spotted this generous gift with purchase deal I had to shout about it.

The free gift promotion in question invites Jo Malone fans to spend £190 and, in turn, take home a full-size body and hand wash, which total £64 in value. Plus, you'll receive a limited-edition stocking in the brand's signature black and cream tones, perfect for gifting those premium scents to your loved ones (or treating yourself).
