Apple's iPad family spans across four different models: the 8.3-inch iPad mini, the 10.9-inch iPad, the 10.9-inch iPad Air, and the iPad Pro (11-inch and 12.9-inch models). With this collection of multiple display sizes, Apple provides each of its users with whatever they desire when it comes to using a tablet to work, read, surf the internet, and more.
Below are the best prices for each iPad configuration currently available at some of the major Apple resellers. Prices fluctuate on a consistent basis, so if you see an iPad you want, be sure to follow the links to the appropriate sites and place your order now.
In terms of upgrades, Apple most recently updated the iPad and iPad Pro. For the iPad Pro, these refreshed tablets come with the M2 chip, faster Wi-Fi 6E, and overall up to 15 percent faster CPU performance and up to 35 percent faster GPU performance compared to the M1 iPad Pro.
As for the latest iPad tablet, Apple just announced the upgraded 10.9-inch iPad, which features the A14 Bionic chip and a complete redesign that lacks a home button. As usual, you won't find any deep discounts for these brand new iPads right now, so if you really want to shop for a good sale, you'll still want to look at previous-generation iPad devices, which is what we focus on in the sections below.
In this guide, you'll find the best currently available prices for every model of the iPad at major Apple resellers including Adorama, Amazon, B&H Photo, Best Buy, and MacMall (which is now integrated with TigerDirect).
iPad mini
The iPad mini is the smallest iPad available to purchase, but it isn't quite the cheapest (that'll be the 10.2-inch iPad). Still, it's a solid buy if you're looking for a display size that sits between the size of an iPhone 11 Pro Max and a regular 10-inch+ sized iPad. If you don't mind reading from a non e-ink display, it makes for a good e-reader as well with Apple Books.
The iPad mini is on sale for $469.00 right now on Amazon, which is far from the all-time low price, so we recommend waiting for a better deal.
Apple refreshed the basic iPad in September 2021 with the A13 Bionic chip offering up to 20% faster performance, a True Tone display, an upgraded front camera, and more. This is a barebones Apple tablet that offers a bigger display than the iPad mini, but isn't as powerful as the iPad Air and iPad Pro.
We're not tracking any deals on the 10.2-inch iPad right now.
The newest iPad comes with a larger 10.9-inch display, the A14 Bionic chip, and a total redesign that matches the design of the iPad Pro and iPad Air. Apple is also starting these at a higher price compared to the previous generation, available from $449.
Amazon has the new iPad at $399.00 in select colors, which is a solid second-best price.
As an upgrade on the previous generation, the new iPad Air has a 10.9-inch display, Touch ID power button, M1 chip, new colors, and 5G connectivity. Although they're brand new, we have begun seeing $50+ discounts on these tablets, so you can save some money on them already.
Amazon has the iPad Air for $549.00 in select colors, down from $599.00, which is a second-best price.
Apple unveiled the new 11-inch iPad Pro in late 2022. These tablets have 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, 1TB, and 2TB storage options, and they come with Apple's M2 chip. Best Buy has $100 off the 512GB Wi-Fi 11-inch iPad Pro, which is an all-time low discount.
Apple also announced new 12.9-inch iPad Pro models alongside 11-inch devices last year. These have a few differences to the smaller-screen model, including a mini-LED Liquid Retina XDR display, with up to 1,000 nits of full-screen brightness and up to 1,600 nits of peak brightness.
B&H Photo has $50 off the entry-level 12.9-inch iPad Pro, but otherwise we're not tracking any steep discounts at this time.
