The iPad mini 7 might be impressive, but there can be no denying that it's a fairly iterative upgrade over the iPad mini 6. Sure, it offers a faster chip and Apple Pencil Pro support, but with the design and battery remaining essentially unchanged, the 6 remains a decent option if you can find it for a decent price. Enter the best iPad mini 6 deal we've seen, knocking a whopping 40% off the price, from $499 to $299 at Amazon.

And now, the latest generation model, the iPad mini 7, is $100 off at Amazon, thanks to a limited time coupon deal, bringing the price down from $499 to $399.

Save $200: The iPad mini 6 is still a highly capable and portable drawing tablet, and at under $300 it's a steal. In our review, we called it a "fantastic creative companion, powerful enough to handle pretty advanced creative work, yet fits in a coat pocket. Upgrades including a bigger screen and Apple Pencil 2 support only cement its place as a portable powerhouse."

Price history: This is by far the cheapest we've ever seen the iPad mini 6.
