iPad 9th Gen Digital Trends
This story is part of Digital Trends' Cyber Monday coverage 2025

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.

Visually, this 2021 iPad has a 10.2-inch Retina display that supports up to 1080p HD. Expect a bright and colorful picture on top of a terrific front-back camera system, a plug-and-play Lightning port for charging and data syncing, and all-day battery life. This version of the A13 iPad has 256GB of storage and Wi-Fi connectivity, too.

It’s hard to say how long this discount is going to hang around. Our experience with Cyber Monday tablet deals in the past is that the stock tends to go pretty quickly. That being said, today might be the one day to save this much on a great iPad. Take $130 off the 9th Gen Apple iPad with A13 Bionic when you order on Best Buy, and be sure to check out our list of the best Apple deals on your way out!

Samsung apparently found nothing worth moving
