It’s probably no surprise that Apple makes some of the best tablets on the market, with various configurations and models for you to pick from. Unfortunately, they do tend to be quite pricey, and if you want to stay within the Apple ecosystem, then you’re going to want to grab a deal on them rather than paying full price. There are a few different deals you can grab, from the entry-level 10th-gen iPad to the more lightweight and budget-friendly iPad Air and iPad Mini.
Ultimately, it depends on how you want to integrate a tablet into your Apple ecosystem. While these tablets are top-rated, they can also cost top dollar, which is why we’re tracking the best deals available right now.
Regardless of which iPad you want, we’ve found a number of deals. For example, if you go a generation back, the ninth-gen iPad can be had for as little as $249, whereas the latest 10th-gen iPad is on sale for $100 off. If you want the latest iPad Air, then you’ll be happy to know there’s a $99 discount bringing it down to $500, and the 128GB iPad Pro M2 has a $50 discount on all storage sizes.
There’s a deal for everybody, so check out the sales below.

Apple’s newest iPad has a faster processor, a better landscape-centered camera for video chats, a larger screen and USB-C charging. However, you need a weird dongle to charge the Apple Pencil (and it lacks Pencil 2 support). The 64GB model lists for $449, and the 256GB model costs $599 at Apple.

The 10.9-inch iPad Air, released last year, has a fast M1 chip, an auto-zooming Center Stage front camera and, except for its display, it feels nearly like an iPad Pro. It’s our favorite midrange iPad model if the Pro seems too expensive. You can save $150 on the 64GB model.
