Apple isn’t known for offering discounts, and Black Friday is one of the few occasions when consumers can snag premium Apple products at discounted prices. This year, Amazon has outdone itself by offering the iPad 10th Generation (64GB Wi-Fi) at an unprecedentedly low price of $250 (down from the original price of $349). This is a massive 28% discount, achieved through a combination of Amazon’s Black Friday discount and one additional $9 coupon which can be activated on the product page.

The timing of this deal couldn’t be better, as the older 9th generation iPad (which featured a slightly dated design) was already sold out during the Black Friday sales leading up to Thanksgiving. That works the iPad 10 as the cheapest option currently available in Apple’s tablet lineup. What’s special about this offer is that you get a brand new device with a modern design and Apple’s official warranty. At that price, stock could run out quickly: given how quickly the iPad 9 sold out, it’s entirely possible that the iPad 10 could follow suit.

New design, great performance

The 10th generation iPad features a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display with vibrant colors, perfect for work and entertainment. The device is powered by Apple’s A14 Bionic chip (the same one you’ll find in the iPhone 12), which offers excellent performance capabilities. This processor ensures smooth multitasking, responsive app launches, and the ability to handle demanding tasks with ease.

Battery life is one area where the 10th generation iPad, like almost all Apple products, really shines: The device offers All-day battery life That means up to 10 hours of surfing the internet over Wi-Fi or watching videos. This makes it a good companion for travelers, students, or anyone who needs a reliable device on a busy day without having to constantly worry about charging. The iPad 10 also switches to USB-C, which (finally) meets modern connectivity standards.

Photo-wise, this iPad is pretty good too: it’s equipped with a 12-megapixel front camera (for video calls), complemented by a 12-megapixel rear camera that takes great photos and videos. Touch ID integration provides a secure and convenient way to unlock the device and authorize purchases. Additionally, iPad 10 supports Wi-Fi 6, ensuring a faster, more reliable Internet connection when connected to compatible networks.

For those considering this iPad deal as a holiday gift, Amazon has extended its return policy for the season. Products purchased now can be returned until January 31, 2025, providing much more flexibility than the standard 30-day return window. If necessary, you have enough time to exchange or return the item even after the holiday season.
