Apple's seventh-generation iPad Mini is available for $100 off at Amazon ahead of the retailer's October Prime Big Deals Days event. The discount applies to both Wi-Fi-only and cellular-connected models, bringing the base 128GB Wi-Fi configuration to $499. This price point marks the lowest cost for the device since late June, following a series of price increases Apple implemented on several of its products that month.
The promotional pricing extends across multiple storage configurations. The 256GB Wi-Fi model is listed at $599, down from its previous price, while the 128GB cellular version is available for $649. These figures represent a temporary reduction from the standard retail prices, which had remained elevated since the earlier price adjustments.
The seventh-generation iPad Mini features Apple's A17 Pro chip and includes support for Apple Intelligence. The device is also compatible with the Apple Pencil Pro and offers faster Wi-Fi and USB-C speeds compared to previous iterations. While the current pricing is the best available since late June, The Verge notes that a new version of the tablet is expected later this year, which may command a higher price tag.
