Best Buy is having an Apple Sale — this iPad mini is the best deal
There's a big Apple Shopping Event going on right now at Best Buy. As you may know, Apple is a big brand. They don't need deals to drive sales. So, while there are always great Apple deals going on, it always feels like there aren't too many of them at any given time. At least that's my experience with the category. This time around, there are a few deals that stick out. Examples include the Apple Watch SE 2 at $169 and this Apple iPad at just $299. But there's one huge winner, and that's the Apple iPad Mini with an A17 Pro chip and 128GB of storage marked down to just $399. That's a $100 discount off of the $499 regular price. It's all yours if you tap the button below. As always, keep reading for our take. Why you should buy the Apple iPad Mini If you think of Apple iPad Minis being slightly small iPads with refined features, you're definitely in for a treat here because the A17 Pro chip version checks all of the boxes you've been building for it already. It has an 8.3-inch screen, 2266 x 1488 pixel resolution screen, and 8GB of RAM. Its screen is small but pops and has a great aspect ratio for reading, especially comics, and should definitely be considered as a tablet for reading — after all, it does have the friendly paperback book size. Of course, if you want something more action oriented, we've found that this little guy plays games easily as well. As our Apple iPad Mini 2024 review puts it, 'this is the only small tablet out there worth its salt.' Ultimately, this can be considered as a little brother tablet to the 2024's iPad Air as its got good power and a 'snappy, smooth' operation, but all packed up in a miniature size. Getting 2024's Apple iPad Mini for $399 instead of the usual $499 (a savings of $100) is a great deal. Get it now by tapping the button below. Alternatively, you can check out more tablet deals to see if there's something more to your liking on sale, too.

However, they are popular for directing outside from a window, or monitoring pets when you're not home. It also has a 140 degree viewing angle and 9m night vision range. There's a privacy cover too so users can physically stop it from recording videos.

It's Hard to Believe, but Amazon Just Destroyed the Brand-New 2025 iPad Air Price
Amazon is shaking up the tech world this spring by reducing prices on all Apple's latest releases from March: The MacBook Air M4, the entry-level iPad and the very popular 2025 iPad Air have all been reduced. This 11-inch 128GB Wi-Fi iPad Air with Apple's powerful M3 chip is the top value and it now available for just $499 which is a 17% discount from its original price of $599. This is the absolute lowest price ever for this model. See at Amazon Great Performance, Beautiful Design iPad Air has always existed in a pleasant middle ground of Apple's lineup (between iPad Pro and classic iPad) and it offers good power, mobility… and cost. With this 2025 model, Apple has pushed the Air closer toward the high-end iPad Pro experience but at an appreciably lower cost. The new M3 chip is a game-changer and delivers performance on par with many laptops and easily outpacing the A16 chip utilized in the standard iPad. That means the iPad Air is great at demanding and creative work such as video editing and 3D modeling. One of the biggest advantages the iPad Air has over the standard iPad is that it's compatible with Apple Intelligence, Apple's new collection of AI-powered features. Thanks to the assistance of M3 chip and 8GB of RAM, this iPad Air can take full advantage of features like Writing Tools, Image Playground, Genmoji, and improved notification management-features that simply aren't available on the base iPad due to hardware limitations. You will also love the 11-inch Liquid Retina display is bright, sharp, and color-accurate and it uses advanced technologies like P3 wide color and True Tone to provide an incredible viewing experience. Whether you're editing photos or watching movies, the visuals are crisp. The iPad Air is also noticeably thinner and lighter than the standard iPad. Unlike the base model, the iPad Air is compatible with the Apple Pencil Pro and Magic Keyboard which makes it a very useful tool for professionals, students and artists. The Apple Pencil Pro is pressure-sensitive with professional-level features for note-taking and drawing while the Magic Keyboard provides the device with a laptop-like typing experience with an inbuilt trackpad. Battery life is outstanding on the iPad Air with day-long usage easily achievable thanks to the power-efficient M3 processor and larger battery than on the base model. Rapid Wi-Fi 6E connectivity, Touch ID for safe, rapid unlocking, and premium 12MP front- and rear-facing cameras fill out a package that's ready for work, play, and everything in between. This 2025 iPad Air is the do-it-all tablet, we do really recommend it. See at Amazon
