iPad Deals Disappoint This Black Friday
29 Nov
Summary
- Black Friday iPad deals have been disappointing this year.
- Older iPads were expected to drop to $250 but are higher.
- Record low prices are seen on other tech, not iPads.
This Black Friday season has seen impressive price drops on various tech gadgets, including Apple Watches and QLED TVs, but iPad deals have been notably absent. Despite expectations, significant discounts on Apple's tablets have not materialized, with older models failing to reach the anticipated $250 price point.
While the base 11-inch iPad is available at a record-low $274, it falls short of the hoped-for $250. The iPad Air, recommended for most users, features the M3 chip and improved multitasking capabilities, with the 11-inch version priced at $449. The high-end iPad Pro, boasting an OLED display and M5 chip, offers a $100 discount, bringing its price to $899, a decent reduction for a recently released product.
Shoppers seeking the best value may find disappointment this year, as the iPad deals do not match the historical trends of previous Black Friday sales. While some models are at record-low prices, the overall savings are less substantial than anticipated, particularly for budget-conscious buyers or those looking for the latest Pro models at a significant discount.
