Apple iPad Mini discounted to $500 for Prime Day
Amazon is selling the base iPad Mini (2024 model) for around $500 as part of its Prime Day sale, the lowest price seen since late June. The tablet had frequently sold near $400 throughout 2025, making this discount less steep than earlier price dips this year.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The current discount may appeal to buyers wary that a next-generation iPad Mini, if released later this year, could carry a higher price tag. Reviewers have noted this model's processor and Apple Intelligence upgrades were offset by missing quality-of-life features found in larger iPads from the same cycle.
- iPad Mini (2024) is priced around $500 during Prime Day, its lowest since late June.
- The tablet had regularly sold for about $400 at other points in 2025.
- A newer iPad Mini model, if launched later this year, could come at a higher price.
