For obvious reasons, iPads were among the most-bought products during the November sales season, but if you missed out on this year’s (quite frankly exceptional) Black Friday iPad deals, fear not: Best Buy is once again offering the latest iPad models for a cut price.
The US retailer is currently matching Amazon when it comes to iPad mini (2021), iPad Air (2022) and iPad 10.9 (2022) deals, with two of those three devices now back down to their lowest-ever prices. The iPad Air (2022), for instance, is available for just $499.99 (down from $599.99), with the iPad 10.9 (2022) also down to a record-low $349 (from $449). If bought from Amazon, the latter won’t arrive until after Christmas, but Best Buy says it can have a 10th-gen iPad in your hands as soon as tomorrow.
As for the iPad mini (2021), Best Buy’s Amazon-matching $399.99 price isn’t a record-low, but it still represents a healthy $100 saving on the tablet’s $499.99 RRP, and it's the same offer we saw over Black Friday. The iPad mini (2021) has only been cheaper once – it was available for $379.99 at Amazon back in July.
All told, then, we think now is an excellent time to pick up one of the best iPads for a cut price at Best Buy. We’re unlikely to see any of these prices improve further in the coming months, so we suggest acting swiftly while stock lasts.
Today's best iPad deals
If you’re a regular reader of TechRadar, you'll know that Apple’s next-generation iPads – which could include new standard and Air models – are expected to arrive in March 2024. Fortunately, though (or unfortunately, depending on your perspective), these new devices are rumored to be little more than “minor iPad refreshes,” so you needn’t worry about missing out on game-changing tablet features by picking up one of Apple’s current iPad models today.
