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.

Amazon quietly upgrades its Fire HD 10 tablet with a whopping 1GB of RAM
Amazon really said, "Here's 1GB. You're welcome."
Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet

Amazon has quietly refreshed one of its most popular tablets, but not in the way many expected. Instead of launching a brand-new Fire tablet after its longest product drought in years, the company has introduced a slightly upgraded version of the existing Fire HD 10 with an extra gigabyte of RAM.

The update is modest on paper, yet it arrives at an interesting time. Amazon hasn't introduced a new Fire tablet since the Fire HD 8 refresh in 2024, while products like the Fire 7 and Fire Max 11 have yet to receive successors. Rather than expanding its lineup, Amazon appears to be extending the life of an aging device with a minor hardware tweak.

You’ll soon be able to use WhatsApp on your iPad without touching your iPhone
Companion mode stays. Primary mode arrives. WhatsApp on iPad just became a lot more useful.
Computer, Electronics, Pc

If you’ve ever used WhatsApp on your iPad, you already know its limitations. You can’t set it up without a primary device, can’t share live location, and can't use the broadcast lists feature. 

That’s finally changing. WhatsApp’s latest update gives iPad users a long-due promotion. Rather than serving as an extension of your iPhone, it will soon become your main device.

iPad Pro refresh could land in 2027 with a cooling boost, but no design change
Apple may bring vapor chamber cooling to the iPad Pro in 2027

Apple’s next iPad Pro may not look dramatically different, but it could get one upgrade that makes a lot of sense for an ultra-thin tablet. Better cooling.

According to Bloomberg, Apple is testing four new iPad Pro models planned for spring 2027. The tablets are expected to keep the current 11-inch and 13-inch display sizes, while focusing mostly on internal improvements, including faster chips. Apple has also reportedly tested a vapor chamber cooling system for the iPad Pro, which could help improve sustained performance and reduce overheating.
