The Apple Cyber Monday Sale Has Deals on Every New iPad Model, Just in Time for the Holidays
As Cyber Monday unfolds, tech enthusiasts and gift shoppers alike have a golden opportunity to snag the latest Apple iPads at unbeatable prices, following the excitement of Black Friday. While the holiday shopping frenzy may seem to peak during Black Friday, Cyber Monday is proving to be just as fruitful, with discounts on every current generation iPad. These deals are perfect for anyone looking to gift a high-quality tablet this Christmas, whether for children or adults. However, potential buyers are urged to act quickly, as stock is depleting and popular colors may soon be unavailable. With the holiday season fast approaching, now is the time to secure the perfect iPad for yourself or a loved one.
Among the standout deals is the Apple iPad 10.9″ (A16), hailed as the best overall iPad of 2025. This model combines affordability with premium features, including a vibrant 11″ Liquid Retina display and the powerful A16 Bionic chip, making it an excellent choice for everyday use. For those seeking something more compact, the iPad Mini 8.3″ (A17 Pro) offers a high-quality display and superior performance, thanks to its advanced chip and support for Apple Intelligence. Meanwhile, the iPad Air models, available in 11″ and 13″, deliver performance akin to the iPad Pro without the hefty price tag, making them a smart investment for creative professionals or students. Lastly, the iPad Pro 11″ and 13″ (M5) stands out as the pinnacle of tablet technology, featuring a cutting-edge tandem OLED display and the ultra-efficient M5 processor, ideal for power users who demand the best.
For those uncertain about which iPad suits their needs, comprehensive guides are available to help navigate the options, whether for schoolwork or general use. As the IGN Deals team continues to scout the best discounts, shoppers are encouraged to stay informed through newsletters and social media updates. With the clock ticking towards Christmas, this Cyber Monday presents a prime opportunity to invest in a top-of-the-line iPad at a fraction of the cost, ensuring that you don’t miss out on these limited-time offers.

You haven’t missed the best opportunity to pick up a brand new iPad at the lowest price, at least not yet. Black Friday might have come and gone, but the deals bonanza isn’t over because
Cyber Monday
is just underway. Every current generation Apple iPad has been lowered to the lowest prices of the year for a few days longer. Even if you don’t need one yourself, these would make awesome gifts for just about anyone (kids included) for Christmas.
Cyber Monday deal pricing
is similar to Black Friday’s, and these deals are expected to last through Monday, however you shouldn’t dawdle on your purchase because inventory is starting to dwindle. The longer you wait, the less likely you’ll be able to pick out the color you want, and there’s less chance of receiving your item in time by December 25. Without further ado, here are the best deals for each model.
Apple iPad Cyber Monday Deals (Newest Models)
Not sure which iPad to get? Read on below for a bit of detail on each deal.
Apple iPad 10.9″ (A16)
We picked this model as the
best overall iPad of 2025
. For most people, the iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) is the best model to get, and not just because it’s the least expensive iPad on the block. Despite its affordable price point, it offers all the benefits of the iOS operating system with premium build quality and snappy performance. The 11th generation model is equipped with an 11″ 264ppi Liquid Retina display, A16 Bionic chip, and starts at 128GB of internal storage. This model doesn’t support Apple Intelligence, so you’ll need to move up the ladder if you want Apple’s new AI tech.
Apple iPad Mini 8.3″ (A17 Pro)
The iPad Mini may be diminutive in size, but certainly not in performance. The A17 Pro chip is actually more powerful than the A16 Bionic found in the standard iPad. And despite the fact that the 8.3″ screen is smaller, it’s a higher quality display with a sharper 326ppi pixel density and both P3 Wide Color and True Tone technology. Also, unlike the standard iPad, the iPad Mini supports Apple Intelligence.
Apple iPad Air 11″ and 13″ (M3)
The 7th generation Apple iPad Air M3 tablet offers performance closer to the iPad Pro but without the hefty price tag.
For Cyber Monday, the 11″ model is down to $449 and the 13″ model is down to $649, both after a $150 off instant discount. The 7th gen iPad Pro Air was released in March and features an 11″ or 13″ 264ppi Liquid Retina display with P3 Wide Color and True Tone technology, an Apple M3 chip, and starts at 128GB of storage. This model also supports Apple Intelligence.
Apple iPad Pro 11″ and 13″ (M5)
The new iPad Pro is the
best tablet
on the market, iOS or otherwise, thanks to the new M5 processor, which is both powerful and power-efficient. However, the processor isn’t the only reason why the iPad Pro is superior to all other iPads. It’s also the only tablet, Apple or otherwise, equipped with a tandem OLED display. Tandem OLED is better than traditional OLED (which is already best-in-class) for two reasons: 1) it’s far brighter, and 2) it’s less prone to burn-in. If you’re wondering why this technology hasn’t found its way into TVs, the answer is simply because it’s not cost-effective at larger sizes. The iPad can get away with it because the display is smaller, but that’s also a reason for the premium price point.
