If you've dreamed of getting an iPad Air for the lowest price possible, you have only a few hours left. The best Prime Day iPad deals include an all-time low on the most recent version of the iPad Air, but time is running out on Amazon's two-day sales event.
When it comes to Apple's tablets, Amazon is currently slashing $50 to $100 off with its Prime Day iPad deals, but keep other retailers in mind; Best Buy is competing as well with Amazon's Prime Day deals.
There are deals on practically every iPad tablet, from the entry-level 10.2-inch iPad to the new, M1-powered iPad Pros. And since not everyone needs a new iPad (they hold up seriously well over time), we're finding Prime Day iPad deals on accessories, iPad Folio cases and more.
Our favorite Prime Day iPad Deal is the $80 off sale on the 2020 iPad Air, currently at $519 ($20 off its previous all time low). Yes, Prime Day deals can beat Black Friday prices — offering the new lowest price we've ever seen for this Editor's Choice tablet.
Now that we're in the final hours of Day 2 of Prime Day, we expect stock levels of several iPad models to run low. You'll need to as flexible as possible when it comes to picking a color, storage configuration and connectivity option. Hopefully, Amazon restocks several of these offers in the closing hours of the sales event, particularly the iPad Pro, which is pretty hard to come by right now.

How to find the best Prime Day iPad deals
Where to find the best deals: Generally speaking, Amazon tends to offer the best Prime Day iPad deals. However, Best Buy is known for price matching Amazon. Oftentimes, Best Buy will also bundle a freebie (such as six free months of Apple Music), which makes Best Buy's deals slightly better. (To date, we've never seen Amazon offer similar iPad bundle deals).
Check all colors: Amazon tends to give different color iPads different prices. For instance, the base iPad 32GB tablet in space gray might sell for a discounted $299 price, but the silver model might sell at full price. So when looking for Prime Day iPad deals, it's worth checking various colors for the lowest price.
Beware the iPad mini: The iPad mini is one of the oldest iPads in Apple's lineup. There are strong rumors that an iPad mini 6 is on the horizon complete with an M1 CPU. As a result, you might want to wait before buying this model. That said, this is the iPad I personally own and it still runs like new, whether I'm streaming Apple Music, Netflix, or playing Mario Kart. Nevertheless, I'd wait for the new model before making an iPad mini purchase on Prime Day.
What kind of Prime Day iPad deals to expect
Last years' best Prime Day iPad deal knocked the base 10.2-inch iPad to an all-time price low of $249. So far in 2021, the price hasn't dropped below $299, so we're predicting that it could hit $249 again on June 21. Keep in mind that the base models tend to sell out fast, so you'll have to act quick should you see that sale price.
Meanwhile, the new M1-powered iPad Pros will likely see price cuts on Prime Day. Walmart has already taken $50 off the Wi-Fi models and Amazon is now taking $100 off the 12.9-inch model. Make sure to keep an eye on Best Buy, which could undercut both retailers by offering freebies with its iPad sales. The retailers tends to bundle free 6-month trials of Apple Music or Apple Fitness Plus with select Apple deals.
Currently, one of our favorite Prime Day iPad deals slashes the iPad Air to just $539. That's $60 off and its the lowest price we've ever seen for the Air (tying a Black Friday discount we saw last holiday season).
