There's already been a bunch of great iPad deals for Black Friday. Yet it's helpful to take stock of why you want to buy a certain iPad before you take the plunge. It's easy to think of how you'll be able to use an iPad Pro to justify the purchase, but if it's just going to be for reading, Apple's high-end tablet will be overkill.
Instead, take a look at the iPad mini. It's a model that many see as low-end, as the entry iPad, not on the same level as the Pro — but that couldn't be further from the truth. You get the full tablet experience of iPadOS in a smaller 8.3-inch display. Yes, you won't get the 120Hz ProMotion screen that's in the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, but so what? For $399 on Amazon, down from $499, it's a far cry from the starting price of $1099 for a 12.9-inch M2 iPad Pro.
