Apple products can be pretty hard to score a good deal on, and you’ll often have to settle on a minor discount if you’re going to get a discount at all. But Amazon’s current sale on the 10th Generation iPad is different, combining an instant 20% discount and a $29.01 coupon to bring the price down to just $250. Considering that the tablet was $449 when it launched, this new deal price gives it a huge bump in value. The bad news is that inventory is low—it's been fluctuating throughout Black Friday—but it's not sold out as of this writing.

The 10th Generation iPad may be a couple years old, but it still has plenty going for it. The A14 Bionic chip inside is no slouch, and it proved quite capable in our friends over at PCMag’s testing. For casual browsing, reading, streaming, and drawing, it ought to be plenty. Apple isn’t one to quickly leave its products behind when it comes to software updates either, so it should last for a good while yet. 

The iPad offers up a sharp 10.9-inch display, and it supports the 1st Generation Apple Pencil. With Apple’s stylus, you can jot down notes or get creative with the wide variety of drawing and painting applications available to the tablet. It’s also possible to pair the tablet with a keyboard folio to use it in lieu of a laptop. The tablet also offers quality cameras on the front and back that you can use for video calls or photography. And it includes a Touch ID button on the edge for quick, secure logins.
