We're less than two weeks out from Black Friday deals. However, I'm already seeing some incredible Black Friday iPad deals that I don't recommend waiting on. If you're looking to score one of the best tablets at a discount, now is a great opportunity, especially if you want to beat the Black Friday rush.

The best iPad deal right now is definitely the 11-inch iPad Air M2 (Wi-Fi/128GB) for $499 at Amazon. This is our favorite tablet currently on the market, and it has hit its lowest price ever after a $100 discount.

Meanwhile, if you're looking for a cheaper iPad deal, you can currently score the 10.2-inch iPad (Wi-Fi/64GB) for $199 at Best Buy. It's an older model, but this $130 discount brings it to its lowest price ever and makes it a seriously tempting purchase.

I'm a deals writer for Tom's Guide and I've spent years tracking the best deals on Apple tablets. I'll be by your side sorting the cream of the deals from the crop. In addition, Tom's Guide has tested and reviewed every current-gen iPad model on sale, so I'll be sharing my team's expertise to help you decide which tablet is right for you.

The iPad Air M2 is our favorite tablet, but you can never have too much of a good thing. This iPad comes in two different sizes, so you can maximise your workable screen space if you have a bit more to spend. Right now the 13-inch iPad Air M2 (Wi-Fi/128GB) is on sale for $699 at Amazon. It's one of the iPad deals that I'm the most excited about for Black Friday.

While I've listed an iPad Pro M4 deal above, I recommend waiting until closer to Black Friday to buy this tablet. The 11-inch iPad Pro with Apple's new M4 chip is currently on sale for $924 at Walmart. However, it sold for $899 last month. If possible, hold out on buying this one and see if it gets a better discount in the coming weeks.

If you want nothing but the best this Black Friday, opt for this deal on the best tablet. The iPad Air M2 ticks every box, as it delivers fast performance, long battery life and a sharp display. You also get Magic Keyboard/Apple Pencil support and a decent set of speakers. After a $100 discount, this tablet is even better value for money.

The iPad mini is the latest iPad to receive an upgrade — which means the previous generation also falls to its lowest-ever price! It may have been recently replaced by the newer iPad mini 7, but the iPad mini 6 features a thin-bezel design, an 8.3.inch Liquid Retina display, A15 Bionic CPU, 12MP wide camera and USB-C connectivity.

This is the perfect one-handed tablet experience for reading books or watching movies and it's now cheaper than it's ever been at Amazon.

If you fancy an iPad, and don't want to have to pay a lot of money for it, then the iPad 10th generation might be for you. It's a very simple model compared to the iPad Air or iPad Pro, but it's also perfect for those of you that just need a basic tablet experience. Plus Amazon has knocked the price of the iPad 10th generation to $319 — which is $30 off the usual price.
