Now is the best time to buy an iPad at a bargain price. If you know where to look – and our tech experts do – there are great deals on the latest iPads (including the March 2022 iPad Air) and great deals on older models.

You can generally find good deals on iPads at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target in the US, as well as Amazon, John Lewis, and Currys in the UK. But if you’re looking for the best price on every iPad model, check out what our experts have to offer. For each of them you will find an automatically updated price comparison tool, so you can be sure that you are getting the best offer at that second, and our personal selection of the best options.

Best iPad 10.2 inch iPad Deals

10.2″ iPad Deals (2021)

Apple announced a new entry-level iPad at its event last September, greatly improving the FaceTime camera, upgrading the processor, and improving battery life over the 2020 model. Check out our iPad 10.2-inch (2021) review for all the details.

Despite improvements, this is still the most affordable iPad Apple currently sells:

• US MSRP: From $329
• British Suggested Price: From £319
• Recommended price for Australia: From AU$499

You can buy it directly from Apple, and trading in your old iPad will bring the price down even further. If you’re a graduate student, teacher, or other employee of an educational institution, you can also get a 10% discount at the Apple Education Store.

You can check the lowest current prices from a number of major retailers in the automated table below. Amazon leads the US at $309, $20 below the MSRP.

In the UK, Currys, Amazon and AO have lowered the suggested retail price by a small but handy £10.

10.2″ iPad Deals (2020)

It’s been officially discontinued and the newer model is obviously more attractive, but you’ll still be able to buy an 8th generation iPad from September 2020. With the A12 Bionic processor and support for Apple Neural Engine AI and machine learning software, it remains a solid and worthy choice.

You may be able to find it at the Refurbished Apple Store, although the US store is currently out of stock. If any other vendors have this older model in stock, their prices will appear in the automatic price comparison table below.

UK readers are in luck here: Apple’s UK refurbished store has a list of devices starting at £249 for the 32GB model. Also consider Costco, which has the device for just £289.99 (members only).

Best deals for iPad mini

Discounts on iPad mini (2021)

Announced alongside the redesigned 10.2-inch iPad in September 2021, Apple’s smallest iPad has received a complete redesign (including a larger screen, thinner bezels and the disappearance of the home button), a powerful A15 processor, and support for 5G and Apple Pencil 2.

You can get detailed information about this stylish tablet in our iPad mini (2021) review. You can buy it directly from Apple for the following price:

• US MSRP: From $499
• British Suggested Price: From £479
• Recommended price for Australia: From AUD 749

You’ll find the lowest current iPad mini prices in our automated table below. In the US, your best bet right now is probably B&H Photo ($459, or $40 below Apple’s price). Amazon advertises the same price but seems to have run out of stock.

In the UK, many retailers have set the price at £464 (£15 off MSRP), including John Lewis, Currys, eBuyer and AO. We recommend checking with more than one retailer to check shipping costs to your area and stock color options; also keep in mind John Lewis’ two year warranty.

Best iPad Air Deals

Discounts on iPad Air (2022)

Apple launched the new iPad Air in March 2022, taking the popular 2020 version of the Air and updating it with a desktop-grade M1 processor and 5G support. It’s a high-spec luxury tablet, and for most buyers, it’s the best iPad currently available.

Read our iPad Air (2022) review for detailed buying advice.

Here are the official prices:

• US MSRP: From $599
• British Suggested Price: From £579
• Recommended price for Australia: From AUD 899

Surprisingly, given how new it is, you can beat Apple’s $599 price tag by shopping elsewhere. Amazon is touting the Air for $559, saving $40, though stock appears to be in short supply at the time of writing.

The lowest price in the UK, meanwhile, is £557.62 from KRCS, a hefty discount of £21.38.

Best iPad Pro Deals

Apple updated both 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro models in April 2021. They look the same as the 2020 and 2018 models, but there are some major improvements inside.

They have been updated with the fast and energy efficient M1 processors that have been so popular in the Mac line; now they support 5G (in cellular versions); The front camera array has been increased from 7MP to 12MP and now offers a new ultra-wide angle lens and a Center Stage feature that automatically keeps you in the frame during video calls.

The display has also been updated, although this only applies to the more expensive 12.9-inch model. The Liquid Retina XDR display is backlit by a huge array of mini-LEDs for subtle local dimming and offers a whopping 1600 nits of peak brightness in HDR and a million-to-one contrast ratio.

Refurbished Apple Store

One of our favorite hunting grounds for delicious iPad deals is the Apple Refurbished Store, where you’ll find iPads at huge discounts. These are items that have been returned, but in most cases you won’t be able to tell.

Apple replaces the battery and outer shell on every refurbished iPad, and you still get all the accessories and manuals that come with the new model. On top of that, you’ll also get the same one-year warranty as you get on a brand new iPad.

The only thing that gives the game away is the box: Apple is replacing the original with a white box to prevent people from buying discounted models and selling them as new.

Best iPad Deals for Students

Keep in mind that students can get iPad discounts through the Apple Education Discount program.

That concludes our guide to the best iPad deals available right now. But if you’re not sure which model to choose, check out our detailed iPad buying guide.
