iPad Mini 6th generation (A15 Bionic) 8.3″ 64 GB

3

The iPad Mini may be the smallest tablet of the bunch, but that doesn’t mean it’s hampered in any way. This is the most compact and portable iPad: 21.5 cm long, 15.3 cm wide and just 0.25 cm thin. It weighs just over 350 grams. It’s actually not that much bigger than an iPhone 15 Pro Max. The compact form factor still combines well with an excellent 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display with True Tone, P3 Wide Color and ultra-low reflectivity. It’s powered by an Apple A15 Bionic processor, which is still superior to the A14 Bionic found on the 10th generation iPad. It also comes equipped with a USB Type-C port for non-legacy charging and supports the Apple Pencil 2 for a better workflow. If you’re looking for a powerful, pocket-sized iPad, this is definitely your choice.

Should I wait for better prices on Black Friday?

Black Friday is the best opportunity to score great deals on electronics, and Apple products are no exception. You may be wondering how low these prices can be. While we don’t have direct feedback from Apple, we have years of our own historical price trends that support our predictions. Right now, Black Friday is so close that it certainly can’t hurt to wait. I don’t think the iPads will drop in price more are the iPad 10th generation, iPad Pro (M4), iPad Mini (6th generation) and iPad Air (M1). I think the iPads can still drop in price are the iPad Mini (A17 Pro) and the iPad Air (M2). If Amazon isn’t your preferred supplier (or if supplies run out), I expect these deals will also be available at Best Buy and Walmart. The Apple Store is also hosting its own Black Friday Sale, although these deals won’t be nearly as good as those from third-party retailers.
