Tablets have made quite a big comeback in the past few years, and Apple has been leading the charge in making them more powerful and versatile. The latest Apple iPad is undoubtedly on that bandwagon, and luckily there are a few great Black Friday iPad deals you can take advantage of, such as this one from Amazon discounting the 10th Gen down to $426 from $450. While it’s not a significant discount, it is the first one we’ve seen for the 10th gen, so it’s an excellent time to pick it up if you’ve wanted one!

Why you should buy the 2022 Apple iPad

While the 2022 Apple iPad 10th Gen doesn’t have the M1 chip like the latest iPad pros, it still carries the formidable A14 Bionic chip, with a gorgeous modern design and a surprisingly good battery life. The new screen is 10.9 inches across, which is massive, all things considered, and gives you a lot more room for apps, movies, and shows, so we appreciate the slight bump in size. Of course, it also uses the gorgeous Liquid Retina Display with a 2360 x 1640 resolution. However, you don’t get the higher 120Hz refresh rate, which isn’t a dealbreaker on what is meant to be a budget Apple iPad, but it is still noticeable when you compare things like the Apple iPad (2022) vs. iPad Air (2022) side-to-side.

As for performance, it does an excellent job, even though the A14 chip is a couple of years old. Overall performance is smooth, and you can play most games without lag or weird issues, and the same goes for using most apps. Internal storage comes in at 64GB, although there is a 256GB version that is probably worth grabbing, and though this deal is for the Wi-Fi-only version, there is a Wi-Fi + cellular version you can also grab. Battery life is also excellent, and will likely last you a day, maybe two depending on your usage, and we even get a USB-C port for charging now, which saves on having a dozen different cables.

Overall, while the 10th Gen Apple iPad didn’t make it on our list of best iPads, this sale from Amazon bringing it down to $426 from $450 is still one of the best iPad deals you’ll find for the 10th Gen iPad.

Why you should buy the Apple iPad Mini
The Apple iPad Mini is a little powerhouse of a tablet.

Alongside the many Prime Day deals that Amazon has been running, Walmart has also offered its own sale in the form of Walmart+ Week. One of the best deals there is on the third-generation iPhone SE for just $149. It's a huge saving of $230 compared to the original price of $379 although there is a catch -- the phone is locked to a Straight Talk prepaid subscription. Still, if that isn't an issue for you, this is a super sweet deal. You're going to need to be fast though as with Prime Day running to a close in a matter of hours, it's also likely that deals like these will end soon too. Here's what to expect from it.

Why you should buy the third-generation Apple iPhone SE
The third-generation Apple iPhone SE, which was released in March 2022, is powered by Apple's A15 Bionic chip -- the same one that you'll find in the iPhone 13 and the iPhone 14. That means the Apple iPhone SE 2022 is pretty powerful for its price, with snappy performance when you launch even the most demanding apps and when you're multitasking between them. The device is also equipped with a 4.7-inch Retina HD display, which may be small compared to the screens of other modern smartphones, but it makes up for the lack of size with excellent color accuracy and overall high quality.
