Amazon Prime Day 2024 is almost upon us, and we’re hoping for big Prime Day iPad deals on a range of Apple tablets. With new M4 iPad Pros and M2 Airs now on the market, we’re particularly hopeful for deals on both these and older iPad models, but you might not want to wait, because Amazon already has record deals on a range of iPads as we’ll see below.

And we’re not only checking Amazon. Just because it’s Prime Day 2024 on July 16 and 17, it doesn’t mean that Amazon will necessarily always have the best iPad prices around. We’re tracking prices across all major retailers and linking to the best deals, whether they’re specifically Prime Day iPad deals or not.

Save $100.01: This is the cheapest price to date on the M4 iPad Pro 13, which was only released in May. The best iPad yet for creative work, it’s thinner than previous models and adds OLED display tech, a new more powerful chip and compatibility with Apple Pencil Pro for a great drawing experience. We gave it four stars in our own review.

In our four-star review, we described the latest Air as the sweet spot between cost and functionality for non pros. While not as powerful as the Pro above, it does support the new Apple Pencil Pro. Amazon also has $40 off the 11-inch version but with a 256GB SSD.

If you’re looking for a bargain on an older iPad Air, it’s not Amazon you need to look to at the moment, but Best Buy, which had $100 of the 2021 M2-chipped tablet. Obviously, it’s not as powerful as this year’s device, and it supports Apple Pencil 2 rather than the new Apple Pencil Pro, but we think this is a great buy for casual users.

iPad mini: $499 $449 at Walmart
Save $30: Until recently, Amazon had the iPad mini significantly cheaper at $399. Walmart has the best price at the moment, but I would be tempted to hold off buying this for now. I expect Amazon’s price will fall back towards $399 soon enough, and possibly in time for Prime Day.

This is the lowest price on record for the 2022 upgrade to the ‘entry-level’ iPad, which sports a larger, brighter screen than the 9th generation model (see below). It might seem like a small discount, but this tablet was originally priced at $449 on release.

The older 2021 iPad is also at a record low price, but this deal has been around for several months now. The design of the tablet is starting to look a little dated, but it’s great value for a tablet for general use. 

Price check: Best Buy also $249
