Apple’s 9th Gen iPads are only $199 at Amazon and Best Buy right now. The $130 discount off its $329 list price matches the best deal ever for the 64GB tablet. This offer has popped up a couple times over the past few months, and unsurprisingly, it’s always a popular deal. Though the 9th Gen iPad is a few years old, it’d be difficult to find a higher performing or more reliable tablet at this price.
$199 (was $329)
Equipped with the speedy A13 Bionic chip, a 10.2-inch Retina display, 64GB SSD, and two cameras (12MP front and 8MP back), this is a well-rounded tablet for gaming, streaming, and surfing the web. You’ll get up to 10 hours of battery life on a single charge, and Touch ID helps keep your device secure while not in use.
You’ll get. the iPad (9th Gen), a Lightning to USB-C cable, and a 20W USB-C Power Adapter. Both the silver and space gray models are eligible for the discount, though it’s unclear when the sale will end. Because of this, we’d recommend checking it out soon.
You can pair your new iPad with the Gen 1 Apple Pencil, which is fully supported and on sale for $69 (was $99) at Amazon. Apple’s Smart Keyboard is available for $149 (was $159). Considering the Smart Keyboard is not far from the price of the tablet itself, you may want to opt for one of the many third-party keyboard case options if you want to turn your iPad into a workstation. You can get this popular third-party keyboard case for only $56 (was $65) at Amazon. It has backlit keys, a touchpad, and a slot for the Apple Pencil. You have seemingly endless regular case options for your new iPad, but one good option is a budget third-party case that mimics Apple’s Smart Folio. The black version of that case is only $10.
For a more powerful iPad that’s still on the budget side, the 10th Gen iPad with A14 chip is available for $299 at Amazon. And if you want a more compact tablet, the 8.3-inch iPad Mini–which has the better A15 chip–is discounted to $380 (was $500).
The newest iPads, iPad Pro M4 and iPad Air M2, released in May. Amazon has slashed $100 off the price of the 2024 iPad Pro 11-inch and $110 off the 13-inch model, both of which are equipped with Apple’s new M4 chip. You can save $30 on the iPad Air 11-inch with an M2 chip.
