It’s that time again, folks: Black Friday sales are officially extending into Cyber Weekend. Lots of Apple gadgets are on sale for record-low prices this week, including all current- and recent-gen iPads. While most models are down to their lowest prices, we were hoping for even bigger discounts.
Shoppers can save anywhere from $50 to $200 on Apple tablets across major retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, and Target. (The Apple Store itself is just giving away free gift cards with eligible Black Friday/Cyber Weekend purchases.)
Below, we’ve rounded up the absolute best Black Friday iPad deals still available. Deals are maxing out at 25% off, and the basic iPad is the best deal at the moment, going for $274. We’ll continue to monitor their availability and add new picks if/when they pop up as Cyber Weekend continues, so check back often.
Best Black Friday iPad deal
Why we like it
We would have loved to see a sub-$250 iPad for Black Friday Extended, but alas, we’ll take a $274 iPad instead.
Our favorite budget iPad is now more affordable than ever: Best Buy has the 128GB base model on sale for just $274, or $75 off. The 11-inch tablet comes with a peppy A16 chip, Touch ID, and 12MP front and rear cameras. Our reviewer called it “great for someone who wants a portable screen for streaming, playing games, and reading.” Even when you bundle it with an also-on-sale USB-C Apple Pencil or first-gen Apple Pencil, it’s still cheaper than any iPad Air or Pro.
Best upgrade pick
Why we like it
Now that the M5 chip has arrived, the 13-inch M4 iPad Pro is no longer the shiniest new model on the market — but that doesn’t mean much in the era of iterative upgrades. When our reviewer tested it last year, she said it “blew us away with its power efficiency, striking display, and breakneck performance.” It’s more than most people need, but great for professional artists and creatives. While most of this weekend’s Black Friday and Cyber Monday iPad discounts top off around $50 to $100, this M4 iPad Pro’s 256GB base model is chilling at $200 off. It’s $100 cheaper than its M5 equivalent.
