Apple’s iPads are the best tablets on the market, and come with a premium price tag to match. Which makes it all the more important that you find a good deal.
Fortunately we’re coming up to Amazon’s annual Prime Day sale, which is likely to see significant discounts on many iPad models. The sale officially runs from July 12-13, but we’re already starting to see some attractive early Prime Day deals.
In this article we round up the best iPad deals for Prime Day 2022, from both Amazon and the other vendors that run their own sales to match Amazon’s event. That’s an important point that bears repeating: The best deals aren’t always on Amazon, even on Prime Day. So for each iPad we’ve got an automated price checker that compares deals from all the major vendors.
Deals don’t last long, so don’t hang around if you see one that appeals. We’ll keep tracking the sales across Prime Day 2022, so keep checking back for the latest bargains.
