The iPad mini has always been a niche product, with a specs sheet that sits between the midrange iPad Air and base-model iPad, which means the mini’s price tag has stayed relatively high. This deal is so exciting because it brings the price of the iPad mini within touching distance of the cheapest ‘standard’ iPad, making it a much easier choice for small tablet lovers.

The iPad mini doesn’t just rank on our list ofthe best iPads, but also on our list ofthe best tablets. As ouriPad mini reviewfinds, it’s an impressively premium device that packs a lot of performance into a highly portable design.
Though the iPad mini was last refreshed in 2021, the specs sheet is still leagues ahead of much of the small tablet competition: 64GB of storage is enough for a decent crop of apps, the A15 Bionic from theiPhone 14keeps things running smoothly, and the 8.3-inch display is super sharp and vibrant.

iPad:was $349.00 now$299.00 at Best BuyThe latest iteration of the iPad is the most powerful base-model tablet Apple has ever made. It’s our pick for the best iPad for most people, with a beautiful 10.9-inch display, support for the first generation Apple Pencil, and enough power for day to day tasks and light-to-medium intensity gaming.
iPad (9th generation):was $329.99now$199.99 at Best BuyThis is an absolute steal of a price for what remains a very capable tablet for day-to-day use as a personal or family device. The ninth-generation iPad is the last to feature the home button, which may be a boost for those who prefer something familiar, and the 10.2-inch display is still inviting and sharp by today’s standards.
