Big news about a small tablet! Apple's tiny but mighty iPad mini has just crashed to its lowest price ever over at Best Buy.
The iPad mini (2021) is just $399 at Best Buy right now. I cover Apple deals all year long, and this $100 discount makes the tablet a seriously tempting buy. (You can also order it at Amazon, but your tablet won't ship until they get more stock in.) It's one of the best iPad deals you can get right now.
If you're looking for an ultra-portable device that offers impressive performance, the iPad mini 2021 is the best tablet you can buy.
Running on the A15 Bionic chip, this tablet crushes tasks like browsing and streaming, even if you have multiple tabs and applications open. No, it can't beat the performance of the iPad Pro 2022, but unless you're regularly working on heavy-duty tasks like rendering 4K video, the iPad mini won't disappoint.
For a tablet of its size, the iPad mini has a truly awesome display. It's bright, sharp and vibrant, making it the perfect portable movie-watching device. The iPad mini also packs great speakers, cameras with Center Stage support and impressive battery life. We got just under 11 hours on our web surfing battery life test.
Our biggest issue with the iPad mini 6 is its accessory support. There's no Apple Magic Keyboard compatible with the iPad mini. However, you can still connect a third-party keyboard via Bluetooth.
