There are some great Apple Black Friday deals available, but this is one of the very best. Amazon has just dropped prices across the board on various Apple iPad models for Black Friday, including the the 10th gen Apple iPad, which is now down to $249.99 after you clip a $29.01 off coupon on the product page. This is the best price we've seen ever since it was launched back in 2022, and I am pretty certain it won't drop again for Black Friday.
Apple iPad 10.9" 10th Gen for $249.99
For most people, the iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) is the best model to get because it offers nearly all the benefits of the iOS operating system and snappy performance at an affordable price. This model has significant improvements over its predecessor. For starters, it boasts a larger 10.9" screen without adding to the overall dimensions thanks to a slimmer bezel. It also has a faster A14 Bionic chip, which is a 20% increase in CPU performance and 10% increase in GPU performance over the A13. It's now compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard so you can convert it into a mini laptop for better workflow (making it one of the best iPads for students). Other practical upgrades include the transition to a universal USB Type-C port, a better camera, and an updated Wi-Fi 6 protocol.
The model on sale right now is equipped with 64GB of internal storage and Wi-Fi (not LTE) connectivity. All color options (Silver, Blue, Pink, and Yellow) are discounted and ship out in November. Choosing a model with more storage or celluluar connectivity will cost you a lot more. Value-wise, keep it simple and go with the base model.
