Whether you're a student, creative professional, or just need a reliable tablet, these deals make it an excellent time to upgrade. Below, we answer the most common questions about pricing, delivery, and how to get the best value.

What is the best deal on the A16 iPad right now?

The standout offer is the 128GB Wi‑Fi iPad for $299.00, saving you $50 off its regular $349 price. This is one of the lowest prices we've seen for this model. For those needing more storage, the 256GB and 512GB versions are also discounted: the 256GB Wi‑Fi iPad costs $399.00 (a $50 saving), and the 512GB Wi‑Fi iPad is $597.00 (a $52 saving). All prices are valid while supplies last on Amazon.

What storage options are available at a discount?

Three storage tiers are marked down:

• 128GB Wi‑Fi iPad – $299.00 (save $50)
• 256GB Wi‑Fi iPad – $399.00 (save $50)
• 512GB Wi‑Fi iPad – $597.00 (save $52)

All three are Wi‑Fi only models; cellular versions are not part of this promotion. Each option delivers the same A16 chip, so performance remains identical across capacities.

How long will this sale last and when will my iPad arrive?

Amazon’s pricing is offered this week only, but exact end dates aren’t specified. Free delivery estimates for most configurations fall between May 8 and May 12. Prime members can often get same‑day delivery in eligible areas, so check your zip code at checkout for the fastest option.

Is there any catch to the discount? (For example, affiliate links)

No hidden catches. Be aware that MacRumors is an affiliate partner of Amazon. If you click a link on our site and complete a purchase, we may earn a small commission—this helps us keep the site running. It does not affect the price you pay or your eligibility for the discount.

Can I get a discount on cellular models or accessories?

This sale applies solely to Wi‑Fi iPad models. Cellular versions are not discounted at this time. However, Amazon often bundles accessories like cases or Apple Pencil with separate promotions, so keep an eye on the product page for additional offers. Third‑party refurbished units may also appear at lower prices, but they aren’t part of this official deal.
