Cyber Monday iPad deals 2022: best sales happening now
The best Cyber Monday iPad deals 2022 available now
Cyber Monday iPad deals are still live on new and refurbished units. That means that you can still get your hands on one of Apple's class-leading tablets for a fraction of the cost.
You can get the iPad Mini (2022) with a Logitech Crayon stylus, for example, for $399.99 at Target. Meanwhile, some iPad Pro 12.9 (2021) models are $300 off, starting at $799.99 at Best Buy.
Many of the deals we featured last week during Black Friday still stand as Cyber Monday deals, with offers on older iPads and iPad Pros taking up the bulk of the reductions, even if you might find the odd offer on one of the company's latest and greatest 2022 iPad Pro models.
Apple also launched its Apple Gift Card event, which finishes today, but offers those looking to buy direct from the iPads' creator the opportunity to shave a bit of cash off after the fact, however, it's retailers like BestBuy who have consistently offered up some of the best iPad deals this season, which you'll see for yourself below.
Instead of cutting prices on new models for Cyber Monday, we're also seeing deals on 'renewed' iPads from Amazon, although suspicions are, there's the potential to receive a box-fresh device, regardless of how they're billed.
So, whether you want the cheapest base model, or the maxed-out, 2TB iPad Pro. We don't expect to see better deals before the holidays, so if you find a Cyber Monday iPad deal you like, now is the time to grab it.

The best early Cyber Monday iPad deals
Apple iPad 10.2 2021 (64GB) – Renewed: was $329 now $279.99 at Amazon
Amazon's Cyber Weekend deals have Apple's entry-level iPad on sale for $279.99. While it's not the speediest tablet in the range, a decent screen, quality design, and relatively snappy chip make this the iPad that suits most people's needs the best. For streaming, shopping, and doing a few light work tasks, it's a great choice, and today's deal equals it's record-low price. Amazon marks this one as "in excellent condition," but it is a pre-owned product and may come with accessories that are not original.
iPad Mini (2021) – Renewed: was $499.99 now $479.49 on Amazon
Don't be concerned by the 'renewed' status of Amazon's updated listing for 2021's excellent iPad Mini; this is almost certainly the same tablet that the retail giant was selling in the days ahead of Black Friday for $399, and you can still get it close to that price, although it was even cheaper on Friday. Described as 'the best small tablet money can buy' in our iPad Mini (2021) review, this pint-sized slate is powerful, feature rich and now, more affordable than ever. Amazon marks this one as "in excellent condition," but it is a pre-owned product and may come with accessories that are not original.
Apple iPad Air 2022 (64GB): was $599 now $559 at Amazon
This Cyber Monday Apple deal from Amazon on the 2022 iPad Air was undoubtedly more potent earlier in the month (priced at $519) but you can still grab a reduction at $559 if you buy right now. The iPad Air 5 packs a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, Apple's powerful M1 chip, and provides an all-day battery life.
iPad Mini (2022) + Logitech Crayon stylus: was $499.99 now $399.99 at Target
One of the first noteworthy iPad discounts this November continues through into Cyber Monday. Described as 'the best small tablet money can buy' in our iPad Mini (2021) review, this pint-sized slate is powerful, feature rich and comes complete with a $100 reduction and a Logitech Crayon stylus (worth $70); ideal for note-taking and sketching.
iPad Pro 12.9 (2021): From $799.99 at Best Buy – We're seeing some significant iPad deals, with Best Buy's reductions on every storage configuration of iPad Pro 12.9 (2021) being of particular note.

iPad Pro 12.9 (2022): was $1,099 now $999 at B&H
Although Cyber Monday deals on the 2021 iPad Pro range are more common, we weren't expecting reductions on Apple's latest iPad Pro 12.9 (2022) due to how fresh to market it is, and yet B&H has come through with $100 off on both the 128GB and 256GB WiFi-only builds of Apple biggest and most powerful tablet. A great discount for those already considering Apple's M2 iPad Pros.
iPad Pro 12.9 (2022): was $1,199 now $1,099 at B&H
B&H is one of the first retailers offering up discounts on Apple's newest iPad Pro 12.9 (2022), with $100 off on both the 128GB and 256GB WiFi-only builds of the bigger Pro. If you were already in the market for the larger 12.9-inch M2-powered Pro, although slight, this deal is a no-brainer.
iPad Pro 12.9 (2022) + Magic Keyboard bundle: was $1,448 now $1,298 at B&H
It's been less than a month since Apple's most powerful iPad Pro series went on sale and yet B&H already has a host of rare discounts on offer for both sizes of the M2-powered slate. While this isn't the biggest reduction on the iPad Pro 12.9 (2022) B&H has right now, it does see $150 off a near-essential bundle that includes the compatible Magic Keyboard too.
iPad Pro 12.9 (2021) – Renewed: was $1,099 now $909.85 at Amazon
In place of deals on brand new models, Amazon has switched to pushing its 'renewed' iPad Pro 12.9 (2021) models. This one's got a $190 discount – not bad for a tablet we described as 'the best tablet money can buy' in our iPad Pro 12.9 (2021) review. Amazon marks this one as "in excellent condition," but it is a pre-owned product and may come with accessories that are not original.
iPad Pro 11 (2021) – Renewed: was $799.99 now $749.97 at Amazon
Although the best savings on the iPad Pro 11 (2021) from the retailer look to have been and gone (reaching a peak $200 off on the day before Black Friday), you can still get over $50 off in this refreshed Cyber Monday discount. Amazon marks this one as "in excellent condition," but it is a pre-owned product and may come with accessories that are not original.
iPad Pro 11 2021: was $1,099.99 now $849.99 at Walmart
Walmart's discount on the 11-inch variant of 2021's iPad Pro has been refreshed to offer a bigger $250 saving (previously, the retailer only offered $110 off), making it one of the biggest discounts on this size and storage of iPad Pro this year, without having to resort to trade-in discounts.
iPad Air 2020 (64GB): was $599 now $349 at Walmart
Apple's still-excellent fourth-generation iPad Air from 2020 can be had with a tidy $150 off the base 64GB, WiFi-only model at Walmart. We've already covered why it's a better buy than the latest tenth-generation iPad and in our review, we described it as a 'a phenomenally well-made tablet.'
Apple Pencil 2: was $129 now $89 at Amazon
Save almost a third ($40) on the Apple Pencil 2, with Amazon's refreshed Cyber Monday discount. That's $10 more off the company's best stylus compared to last year.
Perfect for the last couple of generations of iPad Pro, Air and the 2021 iPad Mini.
Should you buy an iPad on Cyber Monday?
It seems logical to hope for discounts on some of the older iPads, given that Apple recently launched three new tablets, including the iPad Air (2022) earlier this year.
However, since the M2-powered iPad Pro and the tenth-generation standard iPad hit shelves on October 18, prices of the ninth-gen iPad actually went up in some countries. With prices rising, we didn't see many great iPad deals on the newer models this year.
Last year, Apple’s Black Friday deals were paltry and underwhelming generally, as were Apple's Cyber Monday deals. The biggest discount in the US was a $200 saving on the iPad Pro 12.9-inch 2021 (1TB), which went for $1,599 instead of $1,799. In the UK, the iPad Pro 12.9-inch 2021 (512GB) was reduced from £1,299 to £1,149.
So, is Cyber Monday the best day to buy a new iPad? If you've waited until now, we recommend finding a deal. We don't expect to see price cuts or better deals before the holidays.
We will keep an eye on all the deals as retailers update sales for Cyber Monday. Keep checking back for the best prices throughout the day, on whichever iPad you'd like to buy.
Cyber Monday iPad deals: the best sales advice
Where are the best places to find Cyber Monday iPad deals?
Here’s the million-dollar question: where to look for iPad Cyber Monday deals. Unlike Black Friday, Cyber Monday is primarily online, so don’t go in-store expecting great tablet discounts; instead, we’d recommend checking big retailers in your region like Walmart and Best Buy.
Don't forget that some stores will price match against select retailers, so you don't necessarily have to buy from the discounting store.
Of course, whenever a great iPad deal hits the web on Cyber Monday, we’re making sure to report on it; so keep this page bookmarked and check back throughout the day for the best discounts.
