Best Tablet Deals: Save Up to $200 on Microsoft Surface Pro 9 and More – CNET
You can save $40 on Apple’s latest iPad Air right now. It costs $599 from the Apple Store and features Apple’s M1 chip, found in the company’s iPad Pros, along with 5G and a wider-angle, front-facing camera with the Center Stage autofocusing video feature. CNET’s iPad expert Scott Stein still recommends the less expensive 10.2-inch iPad for most people, but sees this iPad Air as a solid step up. However, we have seen this item go for as little as $500 in the past. Read our iPad Air 2022 review.
The basic, 10.2-inch iPad from 2021 is still good. While it doesn’t have the newer design and USB-C support of the rest of the iPad line, the value for performance here makes this iPad deal one worth getting for kids. It’s our top budget iPad pick. Even at its full price it’s affordable, but you can nab one at $50 off right now at Amazon, selling for a very reasonable $279. And clip the on-page coupon for an extra $29 off, bringing the price to $250. Read our 9th-gen iPad review.
