These offers are historical, not confirmed live deals. TechRadar’s post-Black Friday/Cyber Monday iPad roundup was last updated December 2, 2025. It reported discounts at Amazon in the US and UK, but the prices below have not been independently checked for August 2026. Retail prices, stock and configurations can change, so verify the final listing and checkout price before buying.
The original article said Black Friday and Cyber Monday had ended but some retailer discounts remained; it also noted that some offers had already disappeared. Its headline percentages were rounded: the US 11-inch iPad Air discount was about 24.8%, while the 11-inch iPad Pro discount was 10%.
All prices in the tables are the historical prices TechRadar reported on December 2, 2025, not current offers. TechRadar named Amazon as the retailer for the listed deals. It did not establish that those prices remain available now.

TechRadar’s roundup identifies the iPad models and prices but does not establish storage, connectivity, color, or seller-specific listing details for each price. Those details matter: a headline price may apply to only one configuration or seller, or may no longer be available.

UK deals reported on December 2, 2025
| Product | Original price | Reported price | Saving |
|---|---|---|---|
| iPad 11-inch, A16 (2025) | £329 | £299 | £30 |
| iPad Air 11-inch, M3 (2025) | £599 | £499 | £100 |

| iPad Pro 11-inch, M5 (2025) | £999 | £929 | £70 |
| Apple Pencil Pro | £129 | £99 | £30 |
The UK mini is identified as the A17 Pro 2024 model; the conflicting M4 description in the original article should not be relied on. US dollar and UK pound prices are not directly comparable: taxes, exchange rates, retailer terms and warranty arrangements differ by region.
Which reported offer represented the best value?
Best value among the listed US iPads: 11-inch iPad Air
At the reported $449.99, the Air had the largest dollar saving among the main US iPad offers in the roundup and was about 24.8% below its stated $599 original price. It is the most balanced pick for students and general users who want capable performance for study, office tasks, streaming, browsing or drawing without paying Pro pricing. The discount alone does not make it the right choice if a buyer specifically needs Pro features or a larger display.

Best premium option: 11-inch iPad Pro
The reported $100 reduction was smaller than the Air’s in both dollars and percentage terms. The Pro makes more sense for someone choosing premium hardware for demanding creative or professional workflows, rather than for someone simply seeking the largest discount. The M5 identification is the historical model attribution in TechRadar’s December 2025 article.
Best large-screen option: 13-inch iPad Pro
The reported saving was about $99, or 7.6% of the stated $1,299 original price. Its case is the larger screen for workflows that benefit from more working area, such as drawing or multitasking—not a stronger discount than the 11-inch Pro.

Budget and portability alternatives
The UK roundup included an iPad 11-inch A16 for £299 and an iPad mini for £461. The base iPad is the more natural fit when price matters most and the work is mainly reading, browsing, video calls or media. The mini trades screen area for portability, which can suit travel and handheld reading. Those are use-case distinctions, not proof that either historical price is currently the best available.
Should you buy the Apple Pencil Pro?
TechRadar reported it at $94.99 in the US and £99 in the UK, against stated original prices of $129 and £129. That is a meaningful accessory discount only if you will use handwriting, drawing or annotation and your specific iPad supports the Pencil. Check the exact model on Apple’s Apple Pencil compatibility page before ordering; compatibility should not be assumed across every iPad generation.

How to check an iPad deal before paying
- Confirm the exact model. Match screen size, generation and chip against Apple’s iPad comparison page or the relevant product listing. Do not rely on a broad label such as “iPad Air.”
- Check the configuration. Verify storage, Wi-Fi or cellular, color, and whether the item is new, refurbished or renewed. A lower price for a different configuration is not an equivalent deal.
- Confirm seller and terms. Check whether the retailer itself or a marketplace seller fulfills the order, and read the return window and warranty terms for your region.
- Review the actual checkout total. Check taxes, shipping, membership requirements, clipped coupons, trade-in conditions and financing terms before comparing prices.
- Budget for the whole setup. If you need a keyboard, Pencil or cellular service, include those costs. An iPad Pro can become substantially more expensive once accessories are added.
- Compare live listings in your country. Apple’s buying page can help identify current models and configurations. Retailer search pages include Amazon US, Amazon UK, Best Buy US and Currys UK; each listing must still be checked for its current price and terms.
Why “still live” needs a timestamp
An old deals page can remain online after a sale ends, while a retailer link may lead to a product page showing a different price. Stock, seller, color and storage can also change independently. Because these offers were reported on December 2, 2025 and were not rechecked for August 2026, describing them as available today would be misleading. Treat the figures here as a historical record, not a promise of current availability.
For a present-day purchase, separate the best discount from the best iPad for your needs: compare the exact configuration and final price, then choose the least expensive model that comfortably handles your work.
