iPad Black Friday deals in 2024: what to expect

The average Black Friday discount on an iPad is 20% off the starting retail price, based on 2023 sales. For example, in 2023, both Amazon and Best Buy sold the iPad (10th Generation) for $329, which was a savings of 27% compared to the starting retail price ($449). Amazon and Best Buy also sold the iPad Air (5th Gen, 2022 Model) for $469, which was a savings of 22% compared to the starting retail price ($599).

You’re likely to find similar deals in 2024. While Apple typically does not participate in Black Friday sales, the brand is known for giving gift cards with purchases around this time. 

Alternatively, you can consider finding even lower iPad prices on Back Market. Our prices are consistently affordable, offering you the chance to own an iPad at a fraction of the cost. Here’s a quick look at some of the iPad Black Friday deals you can expect in 2024.

Is Black Friday the best time to buy an iPad?

Black Friday is one of the best times to find deals on iPads. Retailers usually offer significant discounts and promotions that make purchasing an iPad more affordable. However, it's a good idea to compare prices and check for deals leading up to the holiday season, as you might also find competitive offers at other times.

By choosing a slightly older or refurbished model, you can save an average of 20 to 30%. But here's the kicker—when you shop at Back Market, you can access similar prices to Black Friday sales on iPads year round, saving up to 64% compared to other retailers. While Black Friday can be a great time to save big on an iPad, you can always find similar or better deals when you opt to buy a refurbished version from Back Market any time of the year, whenever you are ready to upgrade. 

What's the cheapest price for an iPad?

On Back Market, the prices for refurbished iPads can vary significantly depending on the model, condition, and storage capacity. You can purchase the iPad Air (2014) for as low as $68, but keep in mind that it is no longer compatible with iOS updates. If you want a more recent model that’s still supported, the most affordable price for an iPad is $171 on Back Market for the iPad 10.1 (2021).

If you purchase through Back Market instead, you can benefit from discounts of over 50% off starting retail prices.
