It’s just been a month since the 2022 release of Apple’s 12.9-inch iPad Pro, so we weren’t expecting it to appear in this year’s Black Friday tablet deals. To our surprise, the tablet’s Wi-Fi, 128GB version is in the Amazon Black Friday deals with a $100 discount, which brings the device’s price down to $999 from its original price of $1,099. Here’s another surprise — Black Friday is over, but the offer is still online. We’re not sure how much time remains for you to take advantage of it, let alone if it will appear in the upcoming Cyber Monday deals, so don’t waste this opportunity.

Why you should buy the Apple 12.9-inch iPad Pro (2022)

The latest Apple iPad Pro, the sixth iteration of the tablet that was just released in October, made a huge splash on its arrival. The 12.9-inch iPad Pro already claimed the title as the best big-screen tablet in Digital Trends’ list of the best tablets, partly because the edge-to-edge display with 2732 x 2048 resolution works great for multimedia, gaming, drawing, and watching streaming content, among many other purposes. The iPad Pro also offers unparalleled performance with Apple’s M2 chip, which can also be found in this year’s versions of the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro.

Between the iPad Pro 2022 and iPad Pro 2021, the tablet’s predecessor, it’s recommended to go for the new version because of the powerhouse chip that will be able to handle intensive multitasking and the most demanding apps without any trouble and have the iPadOS 16 experience out of the box. The tablet’s design, cameras, and special features didn’t change between the generations, but there’s no need to fix something that isn’t broken.

If you were hoping that the 2022 release of Apple’s 12.9-inch iPad Pro will appear in the Black Friday iPad deals, your prayers have been answered. The tablet’s Wi-Fi, 128GB version is down to $999 on Amazon, following a $100 discount to its sticker price of $1,099. However, as with most Black Friday deals that are still available, there’s no telling how much time is left on the offer. Just to be sure that you don’t miss out, it’s highly recommended that you complete your purchase for the sixth-generation iPad Pro as soon as you can.

Apple is one of the biggest companies in the world, and if you're looking for some great tech, then you probably already know that Apple makes some of the best wireless earbuds, the best smartwatches, the best laptops, and even the best tablets. That said, it does also garner a very premium price tag, which is a pretty big part of the brand itself, meaning that for a lot of folks in the Apple ecosystem, making any sort of upgrade or expansion to that ecosystem can be very costly. On the bright side, there are a ton of great Apple deals out there in the world, whether it's trade-in value from Apple, or direct discounts from Amazon and Best Buy, you have options.

That's why we've gone out and searched through various big retailers to find you some of the best deals we can find. That includes everything from the MacBook deals, AirPods deals, Apple TV deals and Apple Watch deals to the AirTag, so hopefully, you can find the perfect deal that fits your needs and budget.

Apple makes some of the best tablets on the market, and if you're creative, then you've likely worked or own an iPad, with some of the best iPads being a staple of creative folks. Of course, being the best does mean that you have to pay a premium price, and while you could grab one of these iPad deals, they'll still be quite expensive. That's where these refurbished iPads come into play since they tend to be significantly cheaper and, most of the time, just have cosmetic issues rather than anything that has to do with the tablet. Not only that, but going for a refurbished iPad is better for the environment since it helps reduce e-waste, and this is one of the reasons we've gone out and collected some of our favorite refurbished iPad deals below.
