The Amazon Big Spring Sale ended yesterday, which you'd think would mean all the deals would be done. However, there's still a slew of excellent savings to be had as some deals continue. That means you can still get your hands on an excellent iPad for less, and ahead of the potential tariff-related price hikes take effect.
Apple's slates consistently rank among the best tablets -- and rightfully so, thanks to their versatility, durability and long-term software support. While the latest flagship and Air models have just launched, you don't have to pay full price to get a top-tier device. Trade-in offers on the 2025 models and deep discounts on previous generations make it easier than ever to save on a high-performance iPad.
Great deals, however, can be hard to find, so to help you take advantage of these savings, Oliver Haslam and the other members of our dedicated deals team have scoured the web for the best prices on all the Apple tablets on shelves right now. Many of our top picks are seeing significant savings during Amazon's Big Spring Sale, so check out these discounts before they're gone.

Best iPad deals
The brand-new flagship iPad was just released days ago, and you already have a chance to score some savings. You can save $21 on the basic 128GB model at Amazon. Upgrades over the previous 10th-gen model include a new, faster A16 processor and double the storage on the basic model. It also features an 11-inch Liquid Retina display, Wi-Fi 6 support and Touch ID built-in.
The new and improved M3 iPad Air was released on March 12. The 11-inch model starts at $599, while the 13-inch model starts at $799, and both come with 128GB of storage. Both are discounted by about $50 right now on Amazon.
If you have an older iPad to hand, Apple offers massive trade-in savings that could save you up to $710 in exchange for a previous-gen iPad. You'll also get 3% cash back if you use your Apple Card to make a purchase.
Featuring a next-gen M4 chip and support for Apple Intelligence, the M4 iPad Pro is the most advanced Apple tablet to date. And right now, you can pick it up at a record-low price. Prices start at $919 for the basic configuration with an 11-inch Ultra Retina XDR display, Wi-Fi 6E support, a 10-core GPU, 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. More advanced configurations are also on sale, so be sure to check the price of your preferred model before placing an order.
Apple's smallest iPad comes with an 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display, Wi-Fi 6E and an all-day battery. It also comes in your choice of four pastel colors with 128GB, 256GB and 512GB storage options. It's currently $99 off, and you can save if you have an old device to trade in.
Apple recently released a new flagship A16 iPad, which means this 10th-gen model is a generation old. However, it's still one of the absolute best tablets on the market and a serious bargain now that you can grab it on sale. It features a 10.9-inch display, USB-C charging and an A14 Bionic chip. It's an excellent choice and an affordable option if you only need a tablet for basics like scrolling social media, streaming shows and web browsing.
You can save $105 right now and pay just $394 for select colors of the 256GB model. Price varies by color. The 64GB model is sold out.
This previous-gen iPad Air hit shelves last year, and though the new M3 model has arrived, it's still an excellent option if you want a lightweight tablet. It has a fast M2 chip, Wi-Fi 6E support and a stunning Liquid Retina display -- and now it's $100 off.
It's a little older, but the 10.2-inch iPad from 2021 is still a solid option. It lacks USB-C support, but it's an excellent price, which makes it a good choice for kids or as a backup tablet. The 256GB model is now $40 off. The 64GB model is sold out.
