How to choose an iPad on Black Friday

If you’re looking for one of the best rugged tablets, you need to steer clear of iPads. However, for everything else, there’s an iPad for you. Think about your budget and your intentions. If you just want a simple iPad that does the basics, then the iPad will suffice and do a great job. It’s perfect for chilling on the couch, browsing online, or playing a few games. However, if you want something even more portable, check out the iPad mini, which is my tablet of choice. It’s great for watching something in bed or reading a book, while its screen is excellent for gaming. For more power, consider the iPad Air, which uses the same processor as many MacBooks, while the ultimate power comes from the iPad Pro range. For most people, the iPad Air will be more than powerful enough, but if you plan on purchasing a laptop replacement and have a lot of ambitious video editing plans, you can’t go wrong with the iPad Pro.

How we chose these iPad Black Friday deals

We spend every day of the year looking for great deals, which means that when it comes to Black Friday, we’re primed and ready to find you the biggest savings. We regularly check all the major retailers and then cross reference prices to find the biggest discounts and ensure you know all about them. There isn’t really a bad iPad, but there are older models that aren’t worth the discount, so we focus on the iPads that we would use or recommend to our friends and family. That means usually the latest iPad or one that is only one generation behind. That way, you can enjoy the best support and best features, all while saving plenty of cash. A good deal is only good if it’s something you’d like to own and that will last you a long time to come, so that’s why we feature the iPads that we do above.
