Best Black Friday iPad deals live – 25% off iPad Air, 20% off iPad mini, and more deals hand-picked by TechRadar experts

Apple's latest base iPad is on sale for a record-low $274 at Amazon. The most significant upgrade for this model versus the previous generation is the newer A16 chip for faster performance, but you'll also get double the storage as standard (128GB instead of 64GB). Other features include a sharp 11-inch Liquid Retina display and solid 12MP front and back cameras, which make this iPad the best iPad for casual streamers and scrollers. If Amazon's stock runs low, you can find similar deals at Best Buy.

Amazon has the newest iPad Air with the M3 chipset on sale for a record-low $449 right now. In addition to Apple's superfast brain, this iPad features a crisp Liquid Retina display, 128GB of storage as standard, 12MP front and rear cameras, and support for Apple's AI features. Discounts are also available on the larger 13-inch model.

If you like the look of the iPad Air and know that you need the highest amount of storage, then the 512GB model is absolutely worth considering this Black Friday. It's currently on sale for a record-low $749, which is actually $35 cheaper than Amazon's current deal price on the 512GB variant of the previous iPad Air. As such, there's really no reason to choose the older model.

If you're after a smaller iPad, Amazon's Black Friday sale has knocked a huge $100 off the price of the A17 Pro-powered iPad mini. We did see this tablet drop to $379 during Prime Day, but $399 is still an exceptional deal price. You can choose from all four colorways, and similar discounts are available on the 256GB and 512GB variants. In our Apple iPad mini A17 Pro (2024) review, we praised the new tablet's "pocket-friendly design" and "ability to support Apple Intelligence."

If you want one of the biggest and best iPads money can buy, Amazon has the iPad Pro 13-inch (2024) on sale for $1,149 right now. It's a mighty tablet and one that's all the more attractive with $150 off its price tag (just tick the checkbox for an extra $50 off). Incidentally, Amazon is also offering the newer M5 version for $1,199, if you'd rather pay $50 for a marginally faster chipset and the security of one extra year of software updates.

Amazon is already offering a hefty $100 off the newest iPad Pro, the iPad Pro 11-inch (2025). The main difference between this and the 2024 model is the former's M5 chipset, which, on paper, delivers faster CPU, GPU, and AI performance speeds over the M4 chipset. Will you notice that difference in reality? Probably not. So, we suggest you pick whichever model is cheaper between the 2024 and 2025 iPad Pro (see the 13-inch model above).

The Apple Pencil Pro isn’t just the flagship Apple Pencil; with support for the iPad Pro and iPad Air, it offers an ultra-low latency experience to mimic writing or drawing with a pencil or pen on paper. You can also Squeeze the Apple Pencil Pro to pull up a palette for even more customization. Amazon's current $94.99 price is an almost-record-low (it was briefly $89 in October).

Apple's latest base iPad is on sale for an almost-record-low £299 right now (it was briefly £284 in October). The most significant upgrade for this model versus the previous generation is the newer A16 chip for faster performance, but you'll also get double the storage as standard (128GB instead of 64GB). Other features include a sharp 11-inch Liquid Retina display and solid 12MP front and back cameras, which make this iPad the best iPad for casual streamers and scrollers. If Amazon's stock runs low, you can find the same deal at Currys.

The new iPad Air is the closest thing you can get to an iPad Pro without having to pay upwards of £1,000, which is why we believe it's the best iPad for students in 2025. For half the price of Apple's professional-grade iPad, you'll get a beautiful Liquid Retina display, a MacBook-level M3 chipset, a landscape-oriented front-facing camera, and landscape stereo speakers with spatial audio. The larger 13-inch model is also on sale for £699 (was £799), and if Amazon's stock runs low, you can find the same deals at Very.

If you'd prefer a smaller iPad, Amazon's Black Friday sale has knocked £38 off the price of the M4-powered iPad mini. This small but welcome saving applies to the Starlight variant, but the Purple, Blue, and Space Grey variants have been discounted, too. In our Apple iPad mini A17 Pro (2024) review, we praised the new tablet's "pocket-friendly design" and "ability to support Apple Intelligence." Even if you can find the previous-gen iPad mini on sale for a cheaper price, we think this new model is the better, more future-proof buy.

Amazon is already offering £70 off the newest iPad Pro, the iPad Pro 11-inch (2025), for Black Friday. The main difference between this and the 2024 model is the former's M5 chipset, which, on paper, delivers faster CPU, GPU, and AI performance speeds over the M4 chipset. Will you notice that difference in reality? Probably not. So we suggest you pick whichever model is cheaper between the 2024 and 2025 iPad Pro if you're in the market for the best tablet money can buy.
