If you have always wanted to buy an iPad but haven’t been impressed by recent tablet deals, you’re going to want to take advantage of this offer from Amazon. From an original price of $329, the 64GB, Wi-Fi model of the ninth-generation Apple iPad is down to only $249, for savings of $80. That’s an extremely affordable price for this dependable mobile device, which means there will be a lot of shoppers that will be interested in it. If you want to get this iPad at 24% off, you’re going to have to proceed with your purchase of it immediately.

Why you should buy the Apple iPad 9th Gen

The ninth-generation Apple iPad was released in 2021, but it’s still featured in our roundup of the best iPads as our pick for the best iPad on a budget. The latest model of Apple’s entry-level tablets is the 10th-generation Apple iPad, but the 2021 model still offers excellent performance by today’s standards, with its A13 Bionic chip, fast Wi-Fi connectivity, and access to iPadOS 17, which is the newest version of the operating system. The design of the Apple iPad 9th Gen may look slightly outdated with its relatively thick bezels, but that’s because the tablet comes with the Home button, and it also features the Touch ID fingerprint recognition system.

It’s been three years since it launched, but the 10.2-inch Retina display of the ninth-generation Apple iPad still looks gorgeous, with sharp details and vivid colors. The touchscreen makes the tablet a fantastic entertainment device, but it’s also a great productivity tool as it’s compatible with the first-generation Apple Pencil and Apple’s Smart Keyboard.

There’s always high demand for affordable iPad deals, and this one is as cheap as it can get for a brand new device — the 64GB, Wi-Fi model of the ninth-generation Apple iPad for only $249, following Amazon’s $80 discount on its sticker price of $329. We’re not sure how much time is remaining for you to be able to buy the tablet at 24% off, but we expect the stocks that are up for sale to run out quickly. If you want to get the ninth-generation Apple iPad for this special price, you need to complete your transaction for one as soon as possible.

The 9th Gen iPad with Apple’s A13 Bionic chip is only $200 today

The Apple iPad has been a popular holiday item for several years now. With Cyber Monday officially here, we’re excited to see so many great iPad deals available. That leads us to this offer we found: For a limited time, when you purchase the 9th Gen iPad with A13 Bionic, you’ll only pay $200. At full price, this iPad sells for $480. We had the opportunity to test this model a while back, and our iPad expert had the following to say: “The iPad 10.2 (2021) is the best iPad you can buy today. There are few discernible upgrades over the previous two generations, but if you don't have one, this is the one to get. If you do, there's no point in upgrading.” If that's not a solid argument for grabbing this 9th Gen iPad deal, I don't know what is.

Why you should buy the 9th Gen iPad
Even though the A14 version of the iPad was released back in 2022, it’s not unusual for Apple to still sell the A13 version brand-new. And then, when holidays like Cyber Monday and Christmas roll around, the company knocks a few extra dollars off this 2021 device. Don’t be fooled either: the Apple A13 Bionic is an incredible chip that delivers a buttery smooth iPadOS experience, complete with fast load times, animations, and excellent media playback.

Are you ready? Cyber Monday is here and the deals are as green as ever. The Black Friday discount from Walmart on the Apple iPad (1oth Gen) is gone but the price is still low. The Wi-Fi, 64GB model is on sale for $331 (down from $349). It's not the most attractive Cyber Monday tablet deal that we've found but a discount is a discount. We're not sure for how long, though. Like with most Cyber Monday deals available, there's a chance that the offer disappears sooner than you think. If you want this device for a more affordable price than usual, we highly recommend buying soon.

Why you should buy the Apple iPad (10th Gen)
The Apple iPad (10th Gen), which was released in 2022, is the latest version of the base model of Apple's tablets. It's featured in our roundup of the best iPads as the one that you'd want to buy if you want to save some cash while still getting a great iPad. It's not as technically impressive as the sixth-generation Apple iPad Air, which tops that list, but the 10th-generation Apple iPad is about half the price while still delivering a really nice user experience with 2360 x 1640 resolution and 500 nits of brightness -- same as the sixth-generation Apple iPad Air -- on its slightly smaller 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display.

I know, I know, you've probably been inundated with a ton of early Black Friday deals. Me too. But continuing with some more ESR deals, this time we're back with something a little different. Where before, you were looking at great deals on cases for Apple's devices. Here, we're looking at cases for the iPad and AirPods. With the iPad, it adds a bit of functionality, like doubling as a rotating stand for hands-free viewing. The AirPod case, on the other hand, supports MagSafe charging but offers ultimate drop protection to your earbuds and their wireless charging case. Let's take a closer look.
