Back to school season is hitting its peak, which means now is the time for iPad deals. And we’ve just spotted some of our favorite deals of all time. Both the 10.2" iPad and the 2020 iPad Air rank high on our list of the best tablets. The 10.2" iPad is our choice for those shopping on a budget, while the 2020 iPad Air was our number one choice before the new 2022 iPad Air arrived. In our iPad 10.2 review, we loved the device for its bright screen, snappy cameras and 11-hour battery life. The new A13 Bionic chip in the iPad is perfect for simple tasks like browsing, streaming TV and movies, and playing a few games. If you’re on a strict budget, the 10.2" iPad is the tablet you should opt for. However, if you have a little more to spend, try the iPad Air. In our iPad Air 4 (2020) review, we had almost nothing but praise for the device. It’s got faster performance, a brighter and more vibrant screen, and USB-C charging, which is extremely convenient. The aesthetics of the iPad Air 4 are also brilliant, with a more sleek and modern look compared to the 10.2" iPad. Compared to the newer iPad Air 5 (2022), the 2020 iPad Air lacks 5G connectivity. The 2022 iPad Air also has a faster processor and better cameras. While these are useful features, you’re saving around $150 by opting for the older model. These are both excellent deals but if you’re still looking for your perfect tablet, check out our list of the best Apple deals and the best tablets to help make your decision.
