Another Amazon Prime Day is upon us, which means it’s another prime time of year to buy a new iPad for yourself or as an early holiday gift for a loved one. In typical fashion, it’s not just Amazon offering killer deals. Best Buy is running its own sale alongside this latest Prime Day, and it includes a lot of discounted iPads — including the old 9th Gen iPad, the iPad mini, and multiple versions of the iPad Pro.
They’re all tempting deals, but you shouldn’t bother with any of them. If you buy a new iPad during Prime Day, you need to make sure it’s the 10th Gen iPad . The 10th Gen iPad launched in October 2022 and is currently the base iPad in Apple’s lineup.
It’s a great machine, but when it initially launched for $449, it was priced too high to be worth your money. During Apple’s Let Loose event this past May, the company permanently cut the price to $349 , making it a much more tempting offer. Now, only for Prime Day, you can get the 10th Gen iPad for just $299.
While the iPad 10th Gen might have been a tough purchase a couple of years ago, it’s now one of the best tablet deals around — and the only iPad you should buy this week. I haven’t used the 10th Gen iPad in a while, but I thoroughly enjoyed it when I reviewed it in 2022. The 10.
2-inch display is a great size for web browsing, doom scrolling, and watching too many YouTube videos. It’s large enough that you have plenty of room for everythin,g but still compact enough that the iPad doesn’t .
