iPad Mini Sees Another Price Drop for Prime Day
Apple raised the prices on several of its devices back in June, and since then, the iPad Mini hasn’t seen many discounts. However, with Amazon’s October Prime Big Deals Days approaching, both the Wi-Fi only and cellular models are now available for $100 off. The 128GB Wi-Fi model is priced at $499, the 256GB version at $599, and the cellular model with 128GB storage is going for $649.
This tablet’s base configuration typically retailed around $400 throughout 2025, so we understand if $500 for a late 2024 model feels steep. Still, this is the best price we’ve seen since late June, and if a new version is on the horizon, it could come with a higher price tag.
We reviewed this iteration of the iPad Mini upon its 2024 release, noting the processor upgrade and Apple Intelligence features, but it seemed to miss some of the quality-of-life enhancements present in the larger iPads released around the same time.
