Apple iPad 10.2 inch 2020: was $329 now $299 @ Best Buy
In one of the first big deals of 2021, Best Buy is taking $30 off the 8th gen iPad. This latest iteration packs a 10.2-inch retina display and the speedy A12 Bionic SoC with Apple's neural engine.
This latest iPad may be the base model, but its specs are anything but “base.”
Running Apple’s A12 Bionic processor — paired with the company's Neural Engine for blistering speed and powerful graphics performance, the iPad’s 10.2-inch Retina display (2160 x 1620-pixel resolution) is rapidly responsive to the touch.
You will also find 32GB of onboard storage, an 8MP rear camera with 1080p at 30fps video recording capability and a 1.2MP front-facing shooter.
All of this is enclosed in the same familiar thick bezel design (complete with a Lightning port for charging and a 3.5mm headphone jack), weighing in at 1.1 pounds and measuring just 0.3-inches thick.
As we steam ahead into a new year of staying at home, the iPad is a great tablet to pick up and keep yourself entertained. But that’s not the only option — be sure to check out our best laptop deals hub regularly for the latest and greatest discounts.
