Black Friday pricing returns on 10.2-inch iPad and iPad Pro, plus HomePod drops to $200 once again. Head below for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.
Score various iPads at Black Friday prices
Target is offering Apple’s 10.2-inch iPad Wi-Fi 32 GB for $250, while REDCard members save an additional 5%, making it $237. It’s also available in 128 GB at Target for $330 or $313 for REDCard. Normally $329 or $429 depending on your storage choice, this is one of the best prices we’ve tracked all-time, outside of a drop to $230 on Black Friday in November. Apple’s latest iPad offers the Smart Connector and Apple Pencil support, making it a great option for students and professionals alike.
Amazon is bringing back one of this holiday season’s most popular deals, taking $199 off various iPad Pro models. Both 11- and 12.9-inch listings are being discounted, returning some of the best prices this year. Best Buy is also matching, with smaller price drops on the entry-level models.
Put your savings to good use and grab the second-generation Apple Pencil. It takes your iPad Pro experience to the next level with “precision, responsiveness, and natural fluidity of a traditional writing instrument and the versatility to become so much more.”
HomePod returns to $200
Best Buy is offering Apple’s HomePod for $200. This is $100 off its regular rate and a match for this past Black Friday’s pricing. However, we did see it drop to $188 about a week ago, though that was in open-box condition. If you’re wanting one of the highest-quality smart speakers for your home, this is it. With AirPlay 2, HomeKit, and Siri support, HomePod is the perfect center of any Apple-focused household. I recently switched from Sonos to HomePod and have really enjoyed heightened reliability in audio, higher-quality music, and especially smart home control.

Sonos Move comes bundled with a $60 credit
Adorama is currently offering the Sonos Move Smart Portable Speaker bundled with a $60 Adorama gift card for $399. Normally you’d pay $399 for the speaker alone at Amazon or Best Buy, with today’s offer saving you nearly 15%. Having just been released back in September, today’s offer is the first time we’ve seen any form of discount and marks a new low. As the latest addition to the Sonos family, its Move speaker brings the usual experience to a portable form-factor. It’ll pair with other speakers in your setup at home, but the built-in battery offers up to ten hours of untethered playback. On top of AirPlay 2 support, it has built-in Alexa and Assistant, IP56 water-resistance, and more. Learn more in our hands-on review.
Kingston’s Nucleum 7-in-1 USB-C Hub is $37
Amazon is offering the Kingston Nucleum 7-in-1 USB-C Hub for $37. That’s $12 off the typical rate there and is a match for the lowest price we have tracked. This hub features a Mac-like appearance and a large variety of legacy ports. You’ll find USB-A, HDMI, SD, microSD, and USB-C. Support for 60W USB-C passthrough charging ensures you’re able to top off most modern MacBooks at acceptable speeds. Learn more in our release coverage.
