Best Prime Day iPad US deals
iPad Air : $599 $519 at Amazon (opens in new tab)
The iPad Air is the latest in the iPad line and one of the best iPads ever released. The 10.9-inch edge-to-edge display is big and beautiful, and the M1 chip inside makes it almost as powerful as its bigger sibling, the iPad Pro. This deal makes it $80 cheaper than full price and gives it a new lowest price - almost $30 less than before. An excellent deal if you're looking for an iPad and want to save some money.
iPad Pro 12.9: $1099 $899 at Amazon (opens in new tab)
The iPad to get if you want something big and powerful. Its big screen is perfect for watching movies or editing photos, and the M1 chip inside is as powerful as one you might find in a laptop. It is also very expensive - although with this $200 saving in the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale, it becomes a whole lot more affordable. Not cheap, though. An iPad is never cheap.
Best iPad deals in the UK
iPad 10.2 Cellular: £459 £424 at Amazon (opens in new tab)
£35 saving is nothing to sniff at on an iPad, especially if you're looking for one you can take anywhere. This one is the 256GB model too, so you can fill it with all the apps you need. There aren't many deals on iPads in the UK at the moment, so it looks like this one may be your best bet to get one with some money off.
iPad Pro 11-inch 2TB: £1899 £1287 at Amazon (opens in new tab)
The biggest storage option available for an iPad to date, and you can save a whopping £612. Thats like, a lot. A lot a lot. For that, you'll get the most powerful iPad in a smaller form factor as well as that massive SSD. Honestly, that saving has us pretty astounded, and we can't be sure we're going to see anything like it again.
iPad 10.2 64GB : $329 $269 at Amazon
Trying to get a hold of one of the cheapest iPads out there? This could be just the thing for you - the iPad 10.2 is now at its lowest price of $269. Don't forget to grab one of the best iPad cases to go with it - want to make sure it's well looked after!
For the price, you'll still get a solid iPad experience. The A15 Bionic chip under the hood is a great performer, keeping everything buzzing along and powering all your favorite apps and games. The Retina screen is as good as ever, and there's even support for Apple Pencil (first generation) for all you artists out there.
iPad Pro 12.9-inch : $1099 $899 at Amazon
Need more screen space for your iPad, and even more processing juice? The iPad Pro 12.9-inch is now at its' cheapest ever price, with the base model receiving a nice $200 discount. You can pick one up for just $899 in the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale.
The iPad Pro 12.9-inch is the biggest iPad available, with a massive Liquid Retina display powered by an M1 laptop chip. It might not have quite the same amount of RAM as a MacBook, but for most light computing tasks, it can serve as a laptop replacement. All the colors and storage options are reduced in the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale, so it's the perfect opportunity to save some money on an iPad Pro.
Apple Smart Keyboard Folio for iPad Pro 12.9-inch: $199 $159 at Amazon
Want your shiny new iPad Pro 12.9-inch protected, and you want a keyboard so that it's a more useful device? This Apple Smart keyboard has you covered (get it?), and with $40 off, it's a little cheaper too. The best bit? You don't even have to be an Amazon Prime member to grab one. It's currently on Amazon for $159.
iPad Mini : $499 $399 at Amazon
This is another great deal if you're not a Prime member - $100 off an iPad Mini. This is the lowest price the iPad Mini has ever been, and you're getting a lot of tablet in a small package for a lot less money in this Amazon Prime Day deal.
The iPad Mini brings the snazzy edge-to-edge display of the iPad Air to a smaller form factor, along with a slick aluminum shell and Touch ID in the power button. It may not have the M1 of its siblings, but the A15 Bionic will still do you very well, buzzing its way through almost every task with aplomb.
The $100 saving at Amazon makes the little tablet that could only $399, although you'll have to watch out for the colors. The iPad Mini in Pink still only has $50 off.
iPad Air 256GB : $749 $669 at Amazon
The sales look to be across the board on the iPad Air - if you want an iPad with a little more storage, you're still going to be saving some money. Need extra space to store all those games, apps, and photos? The 256GB variant of the iPad Air is now down to $669 at Amazon. That's an $80 saving on full price - not too shabby at all.
Usually, storage updates on Apple products are extremely expensive, sometimes adding hundreds to the price of a device. Here, you will be paying a little more for some more gigabytes, but you'll get around an extra 190GB over the previous model and pay less than normal for the privilege. Nice.
Ksleri Matte Glass Screen Protector: $12.99 $10.39 at Amazon
iPads have big screens - it's part of the point of an iPad. But those screens, while as durable as a screen can be, are still made of glass and not completely scratch or breakproof. A screen protector is a must, and a matte screen protector like this Ksleri one will make your iPad Air more visible in direct light. There's currently $20 off a pack of two in the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale.
Need one for a different iPad? We've got you covered with the best iPad Pro screen protectors, iPad Mini screen protectors, and best iPad 2021 screen protectors.
iPad Keyboard case for iPad 10.2: $51 $42 at Amazon
You don't have to fork out a bundle for an iPad keyboard case - this one will fit a 10.2-inch iPad, fully protect the tablet when closed, and add a keyboard and trackpad to make it more useful. It's pink, too, and if you look closely, its bumpers in the corners look a little like ears. Cute! In the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale, it costs $42 - a little $10 discount from full price is always a nice bonus.
Logitech Combo Touch iPad Pro: $229 $169 at Amazon
We love the iPad Pro Magic Keyboard from Apple, but it is definitely on the expensive side and can make an iPad Pro purchase very costly. That's why this Logitech alternative is such a fantastic deal. It offers all the same features, including backlit keys, function keys, a trackpad, and more all for just $169 instead of $229.
iPad Pro 11-inch: $799 $749 at Amazon
Another reduced iPad that's not in the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale - the 11-inch iPad Pro. The savings here might not be quite as impressive as those on the iPad Pro 12.9-inch, but you're still getting an incredibly powerful tablet for a little less than normal. At the moment, you can save $50 on the base 128GB model, so you'll only pay $749 at Amazon.
Only a little smaller than its bigger stablemate, the iPad Pro 11-inch retains all the power of the big Pro in a smaller package. There's that mesmerizing Liquid Retina display keeping things going, as well as a 120Hx refresh rate to make sure that the UI is slick as the day it was released. Available in more storage options than you can shake a stick at, it's well worth a look.
Fire HD 8: $89 $44 at Amazon
You know it's possible to get a really good tablet experience for a lot less than it costs to pick up an iPad? This Fire HD 8 deal means you can grab one of Amazon's tablets for less than $50. For the same price as a bottom-rung iPad 2021, you could pick up around five of these Fire tablets and still have some dollars left over for a bag of Hershey's Kisses. Sure the screen isn't as big or nice, and it's less powerful, but it bears repeating - it's a tablet for under $50. Grab a Fire HD 8 at Amazon for $44.
One of the cheapest around - but that doesn't mean its rubbish. The screen is HD and plenty good enough for some Prime Video, and the Amazon App store has more apps than you can shake a stick at. It's also less than a fifth the price of the cheapest iPad at the moment in the deal of the century.
iPad Air Cellular: $749 $669 at Amazon
There are some big savings on some of the more expensive versions of the iPad Air As well - you can get an iPad Air with Cellular connection for $80 off too. That means you'll be able to use the internet on your iPad wherever you go and watch Apple TV+ in the park. If you want, that is. We can't tell you what to do. Only that Dinosaur Planet is really good out and about. Grab an iPad Air Cellular for $669 at Amazon right now.
Perfect for the iPad user on the go, the iPad Air Cellular gives you the internet wherever you are. If there's signal, of course. It can't, unfortunately, do magic, but its screen looks pretty spellbinding. Its performance is bewitching, too - and that price could only have been conjured by a wizard.
iPad Pro 1TB: $1799 $1599 at Amazon
Want the biggest saving on the biggest iPad? You can currently save $200 on the 1TB iPad Pro 12.9-inch, making the massive tablet a still not insubstantial $1599. Still, it's better than the full price of $1,799. If you've been thinking of buying an iPad with this much storage for a little while, then this deal may just tip you over the edge. It's a pretty good saving, and you can grab one from Amazon.
The iPad Pro 1TB is, in fact, not the biggest storage nor the most expensive iPad, but it is close - and it currently has a monster deal on it. You'll save $200 if you grab one in the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale.
iPad Pro USB C Hub adapter: $45 $32 at Amazon
Make sure you're picking up a USB adapter to go with your iPad - this one should do you pretty well.

Jamjake Smart iPad Pencil: $39 $27 at Amazon
Ok, so the Apple Pencil is really cool - it's also really, really expensive for a plastic rod with a battery in it. This one from Jamjake may not be quite as smart or clever as the Apple Pencil, but it's also a third of the price.
You can replace the nib too so that when its soft surface gets damaged, you don't have to throw out the whole pen. Smart. And it's in the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale. Double smart.
