How to get the best iPad deals for Black Friday 2025: Our Advice

If you’re not sure which model is right for you, read our in-depth iPad buying guide.
iPad: Apple updated its cheapest iPad in 2025 with an A16 chip and twice the storage (128GB) of the previous model. At $349, it’s already a fantastic value, but we regularly see prices drop to $300. For Black Friday, we’re looking out for anything under $280, which would be an all-time low sale.
iPad mini: The iPad mini was updated in October 2024 with an A17 Pro processor, 8GB of RAM, and twice the storage (128GB). It regularly drops to $399, so we’re hoping to see prices hit a new all-time low of $375 for Black Friday.
iPad Air: Apple updated the iPad Air with an M3 processor in 2024, but left it otherwise unchanged. It still comes in two sizes, 11 inches and 13 inches, and has the same gorgeous design. We saw price cuts as high as $150 off for the Prime Day sale, so we’re hoping for even deeper savings over Black Friday.
iPad Pro: The iPad Pro was updated in October with an M5 processor, but we’ll spotlight any deals on the M4 model as well, since it’s still fantastic tablet.
Every year Apple holds a shopping event from Black Friday to Cyber Monday. However, Apple rarely discounts its products and the event consists of gift card offers rather than actual savings.
While the Apple Black Friday shopping event is yet to be announced for 2025, we can get an idea of what will be included based on prior years’ sales. For example, we expect that the M5 iPad Pro won’t be included this year because it was just released in October.
It’s not a bad deal if you want to buy more than one Apple product, as you can use your voucher to make a second purchase, or credit it to your account and pay for all your subscriptions for a few months. If you are looking for bigger deals though you will need to look elsewhere.
