Heads up! The price of the 10th-generation iPad has dropped by an impressive $99. If you're after a deal on a high-quality tablet, this might be the best Black Friday bargain out there.
The latest model in Apple's lineup combines impressive performance with seamless access to a vast ecosystem of apps and accessories. It’s a great choice for work, streaming and gaming whether you're a student, professional or artist.
Plus, it comes in four colors and works with a handful of accessories like the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil. Need more than 64GB of storage? No problem, there's a 265GB option on sale too.
There's a reason for the hype surrounding Apple AirPods Pro — many reasons, in fact. For starters, they offer rich, crisp sound and superior noise cancellation, allowing you to enjoy music, podcasts, audiobooks and more without outside commotion getting in the way. This model also allows you to control the volume simply by swiping the stem, and you'll even receive four pairs of silicone tips in different sizes for customized comfort. At $189, this is the cheapest we've seen them!
Never lose your luggage, purse, car, keys — anything, really — again. Just attach one of these smart tags to the item you want to track, and you'll be alerted to its whereabouts via your phone. The deal on this four-pack brings each tag down to about $16 (they typically retail for $25 to $30 a pop). Grab a few for your, er, forgetful family members...
Make fighting with your family members over power outlets a thing of the past, courtesy of this electrifying gadget. It's equipped with five AC outlets and four USB ports, enough for everyone to charge their iPads, iPhones, MacBooks (you get the picture) all at once. Oh, and it's so much sleeker than having a power strip on your floor — and you won't have to worry about tripping over it.
No, it's not a massive discount, but this bestseller is within a dollar of its all-time low (and it's retailed for as much as $20 in the past).
This little gadget will give you an instant upgrade to the performance of your TV.
Whether you'd like to drown out the sound of your neighbor's bagpipe lessons or the roar of the garbage truck as it comes down your block, these noise-cancelling earbuds have you covered. Boasting up to 24 hours of listening time, they offer a top-tier listening experience and even offer an IPX4 waterproof rating, in case your workouts get extra sweaty.
Ready for some Apple picking? Yes, we realize it's not fall, but you'll want to pluck this bad boy from the ol' Amazon tree and add it to your cart because it's currently down to its all-time lowest price — and this is the most recent version! As the unofficial Goldilocks of tech (less bulky than a laptop but larger than a smartphone), this tablet keeps you connected on the go or at home, and you can use it for everything from reading books to taking notes to watching videos.
Broida named this the "best overall tablet," owing to its "under-the-hood improvements, including a faster processor, more RAM (4GB instead of 3GB), Bluetooth 5.0 (up from 4.2) and a USB-C charging port."

Don't need a full-size laptop but want a versatile screen for reading, streaming movies, browsing social media and more? Check out this Apple iPad Mini. It has an advanced A15 Bionic chip (meaning it's powerful and fast), has 64GB of memory storage, offers all-day battery life and has a small, 8.3-inch liquid retina display screen. It's also on sale for its lowest price ever at 25% off.
"My bigger iPad Air recently just broke so I was debating between getting another or getting the iPad Mini. I am so happy that I chose the Mini," said one shopper. "I love that it is light enough to carry around wherever I go but still has a bigger screen than my phone so I can do work/school on it. I have also been reading on it a lot and think that it is the perfect tablet for reading."
It’s rare to see significant discounts on Apple's latest iPads. Getting the newest generation at a lower price is always a major score — not to mention that our own Rick Broida named this the best overall tablet of 2024, bar none. You'll save the most on blue and yellow, but pink and silver are also on sale, for just a few dollars more.

Look, you may not need the newest iPad, but life's a whole lot smoother with it around. It's an ultra-light, thin gadget that's powerful enough to replace your laptop for most tasks but slips into your bag without a second thought. With a larger 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, you're swiping and scrolling your content in vibrant color and sharpness that makes any screen that came before it feel like an old tube TV.
If you've got a habit of toggling between a dozen apps, streaming videos and replying to messages at once, you’re in for a treat. This iPad is ready to keep up with whatever you throw its way. And if you’re into gaming, the graphics capabilities mean you can play even demanding games without dropping a frame.
And let’s talk accessories — with the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil (both of which, as you would expect, work like a dream with this model), you can turn it into a creative powerhouse or a productivity machine whenever you feel the urge, whether you're doodling on Procreate, jotting down ideas in Notes or typing out a big presentation. The only thing it can't do is support Apple Intelligence. For that, you'll have to snag an iPad Air, iPad Pro or the new iPad mini.
This iPad has received over 17,000 ecstatic reviews from fans plus one from our trusted tech tester, Rick Broida.
"There's just something about the iPad," Broida says. "Give Apple credit for crafting a tablet that's really desirable despite the out-of-whack price. In fact, following a 2022 redesign, it got even out-of-whackier: Apple bumped the semi-affordable $329 price tag to a disappointing $449." (Puts the sale price in perspective, huh?)
Rick went on to say, "Apple also made a bunch of under-the-hood improvements, including a faster processor, more RAM (4GB instead of 3GB), Bluetooth 5.0 (up from 4.2) and a USB-C charging port. (So long, Lightning!) None of these upgrades are what I'd consider must-haves, but they do make an already excellent tablet even better."
This five-star review comes from a longtime fan: "This is an excellent update for my daughter's ancient iPad. She's constantly exclaiming about how much faster this one is, how easily it runs games, and how beautiful the graphics are. We’ve had zero technical issues with it, and like most Apple devices, set up was a total breeze. [The] 10th generation is neat because of the color choices. The pink one was such a hit. The battery life is pretty awesome. She can watch shows or play games for hours and hours without having to plug it in."
"As I get older, vision challenges make it inconvenient to spend a lot of screen time on my iPhone — whether it's checking emails, Facebook posting or playing games," said another shopper. "I decided to bite the bullet and move up to the iPad, and although it's only been a couple of weeks, I'm extremely pleased with my investment (and it was an investment, as I went with the newer model and higher memory). It's extremely convenient and the screen is amazingly clear."
"The bad? The smallest memory size is too small for heavy users and there is a pretty stiff upcharge for the larger configuration," said one five-star reviewer, who added the "new design has reverted to the square-edged design language for the body, I prefer the curved body style (i.e. 8th or 9th gen)."
One of the bigger gripes was the absence of Face ID. "No Face ID is ridiculous at this point, and the fingerprint scanner being located in the power button, while fast acting, isn't as handy as when it was easier to access on the front panel."
