Today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break is finishing the week off with the return of all-time low pricing across the latest iPad mini 7 lineup at $120 off with deals starting from $379 shipped. Those offers join the new all-time lows on the M3 iPad Air lineup at $150 off – the best price ever offered on Apple’s most affordable current-gen M series iPad – as well as $200 off the least pricey M4 iPad Pro, and a rare deal on the black USB-C Apple Magic Mouse. But with the massive Apple deal week event now live, there’s a whole lot more than that waiting down below.
Latest iPad mini 7 just dropped again: Now back at Prime Day all-time lows from $379 ($120 off)
This week’s Apple sale event went live yesterday with price drops across just about every current-generation product line, including the iPad mini 7. As of yesterday just about every configuration of Apple’s latest miniature iPad dropped $100, but Amazon has now brought back the Prime Day all-time lows to deliver $120 in savings and prices starting from $379 shipped. Details below.
We have tracked $100 price drops on the latest iPad mini 7 lineup several times since its release in fall 2024. But it had never dropped any lower than that outside of YMMV deals and member-only offers until Prime Day went live early last month. Today’s deals mark a return to Amazon all-time low pricing and the best we have tracked on the lineup to date:
All three storage configurations options have now dropped back to the all-time low pricing at $120 off the going rate.
As mentioned above, we saw the iPad mini 7 go $100 off yesterday as the massive Apple sale event went live. Today’s deal, which is being ushered in by the Best Buy Deals of the Day, might very well only stick around until midnight tonight – just about all of the deals on the Apple sale that went live yesterday will remain through Sunday by the looks of it, but the Prime Day $120 discounts on iPad mini 7 might very well not.
Apple’s most affordable current-gen M series iPad has never sold for less than it is right now
The iPad deals are flying this week, and among as much as $500 off M4 iPad Pro and the return of Prime Day all-time lows on iPad mini 7, we also have the best price to date on Apple’s most affordable current-generation M series iPad at $150 off the list price.
While you can land the casual iPad (A16) starting at$299 shipped – a notable price for a current-gen iPad by just about any standards – as well as the iPad mini 7 with Apple Intelligence support starting from its $379 low, you’re not going to get Apple’s M series chips with those models. They effectively run on previous-gen iPhone hardware.
And this is where the M3 iPad Air lineup comes in. It was already the most affordable option when it comes to bringing home a current-generation M series iPad, but the entire lineup has now hit its best prices ever with $150 price drops across every storage capacity and color on both the 11- and 13-inch models at Amazon and Target.
