Why you should buy the Apple iPad 10.2-inch

Considered to be one of the best iPads for anyone on a budget and looking for good value, the Apple iPad 10.2-inch isn’t the latest model but that’s actually beneficial as it means it’s better value than the newer option.

The Apple iPad 10.2-inch comes with a gorgeous looking 10.2-inch Retina display with True Tone support so it’s perfect for any situation including where there’s poor lighting. Alongside that, there’s an A13 Bionic chip for performance which ensures that you can play plenty of games via Apple Arcade or simply multitask more effectively. 64GB of storage is potentially a little stingy but it should be fine for most people unless you want many apps installed at once.

Adding to why it’s one of the best tablets for those on a tight budget, the Apple iPad 10.2-inch has a set of useful cameras. There’s an 8MP wide back camera for taking quick snaps but the highlight is the 12MP Ultra Wide front camera with Center Stage support. The latter means you’re always the focus on any video calls so you look more professional even when moving around.

The Apple iPad 10.2-inch also has stereo speakers while there’s Touch ID support for added security. If you want to extend what it does you can add on an Apple Pencil or Smart Keyboard, while there’s up to 10 hours battery life so it’s good to go for your busy day.

Simple yet effective, the Apple iPad 10.2-inch normally costs $330. Today, you can buy it from Best Buy for $250 so you’re saving $80 off the regular price. Sure to be a hit for anyone keen to buy an iPad, check it out now before the deal ends very soon.

If you're wanting one of the latest phones, you really can't be blamed for wanting to wait on a deal. They're pretty expensive out of the gate. For example, this unlocked Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra with 256GB of built-in storage would normally cost you $1,300. But with this deal, part of the Best Buy 4th of July sale, you can get yours for just $1,100. Never ones to force you to do math, we can say that that's a solid savings of $200 for just waiting. If you know the phone well and were just waiting on any deal to come along to buy one, go ahead and tap the button below now. The deal should be up until July 7, when the July 4th deals end, but might end sooner as Best Buy is noting "limited quantities" in their deal header. If you, on the other hand, need a refresher as to what the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra can do, keep reading.

Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is one of the most powerful phones out there right now. It comes with Galaxy AI features like circle to search, a live translation feature, and both chat and photo assistance. The AMOLED display is 6.8 inches diagonally, has a 1440p resolution and 120Hz refresh rate, and is protected by Gorilla Armor. Its cameras are incredibly powerful, with a rear-facing camera that shoots in 200 megapixels and an ability to shoot video at 120 FPS and 8K resolution. Plus, the whole things feels absolutely great to use, with our Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra review highlighting the phone's high performance and durable design. It is subtle, but should be noted, that our reviewer (after returning the review copy) has stated he will continue using his personally purchased Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra.
