I've been covering Black Friday iPad deals for five years now, and I'm telling my friends to go early on this one. Apple's luxury tablets don't have the best attendance rate over holiday sales - there have been some years with barely any discounts at all.

However, shopping from retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart can often net you more savings — and all of those retailers have started to roll out early Black Friday-worthy deals on Apple products, with their official early Black Friday sales starting weeks ahead of the actual day.

If you’re looking for a deal on anything Apple sells—an iPad, Apple Watch, AirPods, MacBook, or anything else, there’s no better time to get one than Black Friday. No matter what you’re looking to buy, you’re going to find a great price—possibly the lowest ever.

After all, a 4-pack of Apple AirTags is currently $70 (the best price we've ever seen) and unlikely to dip lower. We also spotted a sought-after iRobot Roomba for $140 (a record low), along with deep discounts on a Dyson heater and fan, Apple iPad — oh, and don't forget the kiddos. Scoop up a Lego Disney Advent Calendar for its best price to date.

Although we are still weeks away from Black Friday, most of the Apple iPad models - including the ones that were released this year - have already dropped to the lowest prices we've ever seen. Many of these deals are likely to be the same ones we'll see from Apple on Black Friday proper,

The 64GB Wi-Fi model on sale features Apple’s A13 Bionic chip, a 10.2-inch Retina display, 12MP front and 8MP rear cameras, Touch ID and all-day battery life. At under $200, it offers unbeatable value in the tablet market and easily outperforms all Android competitors in this price range.

If you want to spend big bucks on a flagship Android tablet, Samsung's Galaxy Tab S10+ and S10 Ultra should be at the top of your list. Unveiled in late September, Samsung's 2024 flagship tablets pack modest upgrades over their predecessor.
