There remain iPad deals to be had for the second day of Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days. The second Prime Day of sorts has knocked down the prices of many iPads as well as tablets from other tech giants too. If you’re looking to upgrade from an aging iPad, or you want to snag an early holiday gift for someone on your list, now’s a great time to do so — particularly if you’re a Prime member. Here are the best iPad deals, plus the best deals on other tablets, that we could find for October Prime Day 2023.

The most affordable iPad has solid performance, good battery life and a dedicated Home button.
$249 at Amazon
Apple’s most affordable tablet, the 10.2-inch iPad, is on sale for $249 right now. It may have an old-school design, but it’s certainly the best iPad for people on a budget and it has most crucial features you’d expect in an Apple tablet. It earned a score of 86 from us for its solid performance, sharp screen, TouchID-capable Home button and good battery life. The only major downside to this model right now is that it still sports Apple’s old Lightning port rather than USB-C.

Apple bumped up the performance on the new base iPad, and it has a long battery life, an updated design and USB-C charging.
$399 at Amazon
The new base iPad has dropped to $399 for October Prime Day. It has an updated design that makes it look more like an iPad Air or Pro, with slim bezels and no Home button. We gave it a score of 85 for its improved performance, new landscape-oriented front-facing camera, USB-C charging and solid battery life.
iPad Air

The iPad Air is arguably the best iPad for most people right now thanks to its M1 processor, USB-C charging, large display and compatibility with the second-gen Apple Pencil.
$500 at Amazon
Apple’s iPad Air is on sale for $500 right now. It’s arguably the best iPad for most people thanks to its solid performance rendered by the M1 chipset, big 10.9-inch display, USB-C charging and second-generation Apple Pencil support. M1 might not be the latest Apple chipset, but it’s powerful enough to handle pretty much any task you throw at it — and since the Air works with keyboard accessories, it could be a decent laptop replacement when on the go.

Apple’s smallest iPad is best for those who want a one-handed design, plus it has strong performance and works with the second-gen Apple Pencil.
$400 at Amazon
The Apple iPad mini has dropped to $400 for October Prime Day. It’s the best small tablet on the market right now and really your only option if you want a true one-hand-friendly iPad. It’s powered by Apple’s A15 Bionic chip and sports a TouchID-toting power button, solid cameras, a good battery life and a USB-C port for charging.
Amazon Fire 7

Amazon’s most affordable tablet could be a good choice for a child as their first slab.
$40 at Amazon
Amazon’s Fire 7 tablet is on sale for $40 for October Prime Day. It’s the cheapest Fire tablet in the lineup, and it’s really only a viable option if you have a strict budget to adhere to since other Fire tablets provide much stronger performance. The Fire 7 includes a 7-inch 1024 x 600 touchscreen, up to 32GB of storage and up to 10 hours of battery life.
Amazon Fire HD 8

Amazon’s Fire HD 8 tablet is an even better pick than the 7-inch tablet that sits below it in the lineup thanks to its improved performance, cameras and battery life.
$60 at Amazon
The Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet has dropped to $60 for Prime Big Deal Days. It’s a solid step-up from the Fire 7 if you can spend a little bit more money. You’ll get an 8-inch HD touchscreen, a hexa-core processor, a 5MP rear-facing camera in addition to the selfie cam and a battery that should last up to 13 hours on a single charge.
Amazon Fire HD 10 (2021)

The 2021 Fire HD 10 tablet has an octa-core processor, a big touchscreen and up to 12 hours of battery life.
$75 at Amazon
The 2021 Fire HD 10 tablet has dropped to $75 for Prime Day. One of the more powerful slabs in Amazon’s lineup, the HD 10 provides a 10.1-inch FHD touchscreen, an octa-core processor, up to 64GB of internal storage and a 12-hour battery life. This year’s Fire HD 10 is up for pre-order now and it includes a 25-percent bump up in performance, an improved front-facing camera and a lighter design.
Amazon Fire Max 11
Amazon
The Fire Max 11 tablet is the most powerful slab in Amazon’s lineup, featuring an 11-inch touchscreen, an octa-core processor, up to 128GB of storage and long battery life.
$150 at Amazon
Amazon’s new Fire Max 11 tablet is on sale for $150 for Prime Day. The slab has an 11-inch 2000 x 1200 touchscreen, an octa-core processor, 4GB of RAM, up to 128GB of built-in storage and up to 14 hours of battery life. It can also work with a detachable keyboard and stylus, so you could use it like a 2-in-1 laptop.
