It’s the week before Black Friday, and now’s the time when we see early deals rolling in. This deal on the iPad 10.2 (2021) is the first to catch our attention this week – it’s 15% off the retail price, which might not sound like much, but we rarely see discounts of more than 10% on Apple products.
The 15% saving comes courtesy of Amazon and it brings the price down to AU$879, which is AU$150 off the retail price. Even with the discount, this iPad deal is still quite an investment, and that’s because it’s an iPad that comes with the lot – 256GB of storage, plus Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity.
If you don’t need large amounts of onboard storage, you can also opt for this iPad with 64GB of storage, plus Wi-Fi and cellular. The 64GB model is only 10% off though, making the final price AU$699 (down from AU$779). In either case, these deals on last year’s iPad work out cheaper than what you’d pay for the newer iPad 10.9 (2022).
It’s not only the regular iPad that’s discounted ahead of Black Friday – we’ve also spotted a deal on the iPad mini (2021). The maximum discount that’s now available on the petite iPad mini is 13% off, bringing the price down to AU$719 (that’s AU$110 off).
The mini version of Apple’s tablet is designed to be compact, easily portable and able to use in one hand. It’s got an 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display, which some may prefer to the 10.2-inch Retina display found on the regular iPad we’ve highlighted above. The mini is also more powerful, with an A15 Bionic processor compared to the standard iPad’s lesser A13.
