The iPad Pro M4 hasn’t been available for very long, but we already found a solid markdown on the Apple touchscreen device when looking through tablet deals:

Right now, when you purchase the iPad Pro M4 (256GB, OLED), you’ll spend $950. At full price, this model sells for $1,000. We can probably thank Amazon’s upcoming October Big Deal Day savings event for the discount on this model. Not to mention the several other Prime Day iPad deals we’ve been keeping tabs on!

Why you should buy the iPad Pro M4

The iPad Pro M4 is one of the fastest and best-looking iPads Apple has ever produced. Rocking an 11-inch Ultra Retina XRD Display that delivers 2420 x 1668 resolution, this is one of the brightest and most colorful displays we’ve seen on an iPad. And thanks to ProMotion, P3 wide color, and True Tone certifications, the Pro M4 will constantly be optimizing whatever content you’re scrolling through or watching. Not to mention, the brilliant new screen is matched by the landscape 12MP Ultra Wide front camera with Center Stage.

Featuring Wi-Fi 6E support, you should have zero issues connecting this iPad to modern networking gear. You should also have no trouble using the USB-C connector to recharge the iPad, or to connect the tablet to an external display.

As for processing power and graphics, this iPad Pro uses Apple’s M4 chip. The 10-core CPU allows the M4 iPad to work fast and efficiently. Expect little to no load times for apps, webpages, and streamable media. There’s even another 10 cores that are dedicated exclusively to the iPad’s GPU, which is why those crisp-clear visuals always look so dang good!

The Pro M4 is compatible with the Apple Pencil (USB-C) and Magic Keyboard and has enough battery life to get you through an entire day (about 10 hours). We see plenty of iPad deals when searching for Apple markdowns, and it’s hard to say how long this discount is going to hang in there for. That being said, now could be the best time to save.

Take $50 off the iPad Pro M4 (256GB, OLED) when you purchase through Best Buy, and be sure to check out some of the other Best Buy deals we’ve been digging up!

Computer, Electronics, Laptop

Apple is reportedly planning to launch a new slate of devices late in October, and this event will focus on Macs, it seems. Earlier today, Apple confirmed that a smart home-focused event is lined up for October 13, which leaves the doors open for another busy event where the company is expected to launch a highly anticipated MacBook Pro overhaul with the touch-sensitive OLED screen, a new iPad, and more computing gear.

“The product launch is scheduled on or around Tuesday, Oct. 27, according to people with knowledge of the matter. The end-of-month announcements will also include versions of the 14-inch MacBook Pro and iMac with M6 chips,” says the report.

Amazon is doing with Android tablets what Apple still won’t do with the iPad
Amazon's new tablets have an idea that other Androids should copy
Amazon Alexa Tablet 12 Pro pen

I did not expect Amazon to be the company that made me reconsider what an Android tablet should actually be. The company's Fire tablets have been quite the opposite of what you'd expect from an Android experience. Despite running on the Android OS, they ran a fork of Android, which pushed users toward Amazon’s own apps and services, and famously shipped without the Google Play Store.

That's not to say they were entirely terrible. In our review of the Fire Max 11, we praised it for its hardware package and overall value. Though its sparse app selection was also one of the biggest things holding it back. Installing Google Play yourself made the tablet dramatically more useful.

Amazon’s new Alexa Tablets let Alexa see your screen and help in real time
From planning a hike to adding events to your calendar, Alexa can now understand what you're looking at and take action without making you start from scratch.
Amazon Alexa tablet On Screen Intelligence

Amazon has launched three new Alexa Tablets, starting at $229.99, and they look like solid devices with aluminum builds and sharp displays. That said, hardware isn't what got me interested. The feature I keep thinking about is On-Screen Intelligence, which gives Alexa the ability to understand what's open on your tablet and help with it.

Why does this matter?
