Apple Kicks Off Early Prime Day: Wi-Fi Only iPad 2025 Hits a New All-Time Low Price

gizmodo.com Gizmodo Deals 2026-03-31 21:11:04

Unlike many other brands that jump at every major sales event like Prime Day, Apple often stands on the sidelines, and lets its premium reputation and loyal customer base do the talking. Thus, whenever Apple items, and especially those released within the current year, are discounted, it is always a surprise (and a treat). Today, Apple’s latest iPad (the 11-inch version) can be had at a record low price of $2
