Starting off another work week, today’s best deals put iPad mini 6 in the spotlight from $400. Fittingly, we’re also seeing the best price of the year on Apple Pencil 2 at $99 as well as new all-time lows that take $49 off the latest Apple TV 4K. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.
iPad mini 6 all-time lows arrive to start the week
Amazon is starting of the week by offering all-time lows on the latest iPad mini 6. Starting with the entry-level Wi-Fi 64GB models from $400, several styles are available. Each one is down from the usual $499 going rate and matching the low set only once before at $99 off. New all-time lows have also rolled out on the 256GB capacity, which now sit at $540, down from $649. That’s $109 in savings and $10 under previous mentions.
Apple’s latest compact iPadOS experience arrives as the new iPad mini 6. It may be the smallest one in the lineup, but still delivers many of the signature features you’d expect like an edge-to-edge 8.3-inch Retina display and Apple Pencil 2 support. Throw in the A15 Bionic chip and Touch ID in the power button to complete the package. I’m a recent convert myself, and have been absolutely loving the compact form-factor. Don’t just take my word for it, as our hands-on review notes just how perfect its size is without sacrificing on performance.
